Summary Introduction

To review:

The reason for the high frequency of clavicle fractures.

Introduction:

The clavicle is the curved bone of the upper limb. It is a part of the pectoral girdle. Thus, clavicle along with the scapula forms a shoulder joint. Together they aid in the movement of the upper limb. It connects the axial skeleton with the pectoral girdle. The clavicle lies between the scapula and sternum.
