Abstract :
Bilateral clavicle fractures are not frequently seen. To treat these injuries surgically or non-surgically is still a debatable issue. Implant option for surgical management is also in

patient with bilateral clavicle fracture surgically. He had
excellent outcomes in terms of function and radiology.
Surgical option for bilateral clavicle fractures promises excellent outcome in terms of early rehabilitation and return in function.
