Abstract
The present case report is an observational study with a literature review. This case is significant because the injury is rare regarding location and clinical manifestation. A middle-aged male patient sustained a fracture at the acromial end of the clavicle with lateral fragment dislocation after falling from a bicycle. The literature reports a single similar case, but we had no access to the complete text. The patient underwent treatment with satisfactory outcomes.
Work carried out at the Hospital Márcio Cunha, Fundação São Francisco Xavier, Ipatinga, MG, Brazil.
