SUMMARY The treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures continues to evolve, with a variety of fixation techniques and constructs used. Symptomatic hardware is a common complication related to plate fixation of the clavicle, and often results in secondary surgery for implant removal. The minifragment dual plate fixation technique for clavicle fractures provides a construct that may result in fewer implant related complications with comparable fixation stability to precontoured locking plates. Our case presentation demonstrates our approach to midshaft clavicle fractures, the benefits of this surgical technique, and reported outcomes from this fixation method.
