The Clinical Analysis Of Supraclavicular Fossa Multiple Injuries

Objective:The injury mechanisms, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, treatment of supraclavicular fosse multiple injuries. Methods:10 acute trauma cases were involved in this series.10 cases had clavicle fracture. Brachial plexus injury was seen in 9 cases. Injuries of the sub clavicle vessels (vessel rupture, artero-venous fistula) were found in 3 cases. Surgical exploration was carried out in 9 cases. Repair of the ruptured vessels was done in 2 cases, while another 1 was managed with vessel ligation. Results: Postoperatively the patients were followed for an average of 30 months. All fractures were healed.9 patients had strong pulsation at the radial artery of the affected side. Assessment of the upper limb function using the standard issued by the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association graded 3 cases as excellent 2cases as good 3cases as fair and 2 cases as bad. Conclusion:when you can make a clear diagnosis of supraclavicular fosse multiple injuries, early surgical intervention can lead to satisfactory results.
