There were six cases of scapular neck fracture combined with comminuted clavicle fracture,five cases of scapular neck fracture combined with acromial fracture,and two cases of comminuted clavicle fracture com-bined with acromial and glenoid fracture.These patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixa-tion.Three patients had acromioclavicular joint dislocation combined with coracoclavicular ligament rupture and they were given hook plate fixation and ligament repair.One patient with scapular neck fracture com-bined with acromioclavicular joint dislocation,and one patient with comminuted clavicle fracture combined with coracoclavicular ligament rupture,were treated with the open reduction,internal fixation and the liga-ment repair.Results All patients were followed up for 3 to 14 months,with an average of 9 months.Ana-tomical reduction and healing were all achieved within 7 to 12 weeks,with an average of 8.6 weeks.Con-clusion Anatomical structure of SSSC is very complex and surgery is given priority to internal fixation, which restores the stability good therapeutic effect.
