Malunion of Clavicle Fracture

Definition

Malunion of clavicle fracture refers to the improper healing of a broken clavicle, or collarbone, resulting in a deformity or misalignment of the bone. This can lead to functional limitations, pain, and cosmetic concerns. Malunion may occur due to inadequate immobilization, delayed treatment, or other factors affecting the healing process.
