Keywords: fracture-related infection, bone defect, clavicle fracture, osteocutaneous free fibula flap, multidisciplinary team, MDT
Abstract. As the surgical treatment of clavicular fractures is increasingly utilized in orthopedics, the number of related complications rises as well. We present a case of segmental bone loss of the clavicle due to fracture-related infection. Treatment was based on a multidisciplinary team approach, which was important for a successful outcome.
