Plate fixation technique. The plate is contoured in an S-shape manner to fit the clavicle curvature. A k-wire (black arrowhead) can be used for temporary fracture fixation until a lag screw (white arrowhead) is inserted away from the plate in the oblique fracture. While drilling the screws through the plate holes, a drill stopper (white arrow) is used to avoid injury to neurovascular structures
