Screw Stress Distribution in a Clavicle Fracture with Plate Fixation: A Finite Element Analysis
Clavicle midshaft fractures are mostly treated surgically by open internal reduction with a superior or anteroinferior plate and screws or by intramedullary nailing. Screw positioning plays a critical role in determining the stress distribution. There is a lack of data on the screw position and the...
