<p>La pseudoartrosis de clavícula es una causa infrecuente de síndrome de opérculo torácico. En el presente artículo describimos un caso de plexopatía braquial por pseudoartrosis previamente infectada de clavícula en el cual se realizó claviculectomía total para el alivio de los síntomas. Realizamos una revisión bibliográfica del tema. Escasos artículos han sido publicados. Del análisis de la literatura citada concluimos que la claviculectomía total es una opción a ser tenida en cuenta cuando se han agotado las opciones terapéuticas. Los resultados funcionales pueden ser satisfactorios cuando la indicación es por infección, plexopatía o por sarcoma.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p><strong></strong><br />Clavicle non-union is an uncommon cause of thoracic outlet syndrome. A case of brachial plexopathy by previously infected clavicle pseudarthrosis is described. Total claviculectomy was performed for symptom relief. From literature analysis we conclude that total claviculectomy is an option to be taken into account when therapeutic options have exhausted.<br />Functional results could be adequate when total claviculectomy is indicated in cases of infection, plexopathy or sarcoma.</p>

Common Clinical Problem

Acute septic arthritis is a common clinical problem in emergency departments. Primary meningococcal arthritis (PMA) is very rare and few cases are reported in literature. D. B. M. consulted the emergency department for knee pain and fever; analysis showed that the cause was a Neisseria meningitidis type C infection. He received a treatment consisting of 2 arthroscopies and 5 weeks of antibiotics. At five weeks he returned to work and at 2 months he resumed sports (jogging and soccer) without complaints. Primary arthritis of the knee caused by Neisseria meningitidis is very rare. It has a very good response to antibiotics and arthroscopy procedure. Short-term follow-up and functional results are often good or excellent.

Clavicle Fractures

A 59-year-old woman was admitted three times over a six-month period with recurrent upper extremity deep venous thrombosis (UEDVT). It was determined that this patient was suffering from an unusual presentation of Paget-Schröetter syndrome secondary to a 20-year-old non-union of a midshaft clavicle fracture. Following thrombolysis the patient underwent resection and plate fixation of the clavicle fracture non-union. Despite the anatomic proximity of the subclavian vessels to the clavicle, vascular complications from fracture are rare. Treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures is often non-operative. Non-union rates are generally less than 10%, and easily treated secondarily without complication. Clavicular pseudo-arthroses from trauma have been implicated in the development of the thoracic outlet syndromes, however, onset 20 years after fracture has never before been reported.

Median Cleft

The median cleft of the mandible and lower lip is an extremely rare congenital maxillofacial deformity, and the therapeutic options are controversial. To evaluate the clinical characteristics and identify a better choice of treatment modes used among us and others, we reviewed 34 relevant literature and herein describe a 17-year follow-up of a case with a median cleft of the mandible and lower lip. Based on the literature and our case with good functional and aesthetical outcomes, we propose a prospective clinical treatment: Patients of Tessier 30 cleft associated with cleft of the mandible could undergo mandibular repair after puberty in conditions of a good occlusal relationship and normal maxillofacial development, even with mild masticatory dysfunction.
