Rare Injury

Bipolar dislocation of the clavicle is a rare injury that is defined as a concomitant dislocation of the ipsilateral acromioclavicular joint and sternoclavicular joint. This injury is also described as a floating clavicle. Although this injury has been known for nearly two centuries, knowledge about it is limited and the treatment strategy remains controversial. Bipolar dislocation includes several combinations of both joints’ injury types. We reported two patients with bipolar dislocation of the clavicle: one with an anterior dislocation and the other with a posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint. After reviewing the currently available literature, we discussed these cases to highlight the necessity of a specific treatment approach that is modified based on the pattern of each joint’s lesion.

Poor Outcomes

The management of traumatic injuries to the clavicle and its two joints, acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular, has evolved substantially over the last few years. Regarding clavicle fractures, we now realize that nonoperative treatment of certain fracture patterns does lead to poor outcomes more frequently than previously thought; precontoured plates and modern intramedullary devices facilitate fixation techniques. Regarding the acromioclavicular joint, more emphasis is placed on anatomical reconstruction of all ligamentous structures, and there is substantial interest in arthroscopically assisted techniques. Fear of a major vascular complication when dealing with sternoclavicular joint pathology still lingers, but more and more surgeons feel they can manage this particular area of the shoulder region with reliable reconstructive techniques.
