Abstract: | Posterior dislocations of the sternoclavicular joint are uncommon, but are potentially quite serious. Radiologic diagnosis and management are frequently difficult. The specialized projections available are not widely known, and the role of plain films is poorly understood. The incidence, pathomechanics, and clinical manifestations of such dislocations are presented and the radiologic diagnosis is discussed. |
