CARDENAS, G. Minimally invasive osteosynthesis with blocked anatomical plate in displaced fractures of the middle third of the clavicle. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.5, pp.479-485.  Epub 22-Ago-2022. ISSN 2306-4102.  https://doi.org/10.35366/104579.

Surgical management of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures has gained popularity in the last decade due to reductions in functional recovery times and lower rates of nonunion. However, several complications related to the open approach have been described and remain concerning for patients. These potential sequelae include scar pain, local irritation, peri-incisional numbness, and cosmetic deformity, all of which may contribute to unsatisfactory subjective outcomes. Recently, minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique has been described for the treatment of these fractures. This approach presents the opportunity to reduce shortcomings of the traditional open approach while maintaining its benefits, respecting the biological healing environment and preserving blood supply to the fracture site. The purpose of this study is to provide a step-by-step description of the MIPO surgical technique for management of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures and report the clinical outcomes of a case series using this technique.
