Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Neonatal Medicine
  • Pediatric Traumatology

Background:

  • Sternoclavicular (SC) dislocation is exceptionally rare in newborns, with limited existing literature on traumatic birth injuries.
  • Differentiating SC dislocation from more common epiphyseal separation in neonates presents diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

  • A neonate sustained a sternoclavicular (SC) dislocation secondary to birth trauma.
  • The injury was challenging to distinguish from other potential neonatal skeletal injuries.

Findings:

  • Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for managing complete SC dislocations.
  • Successful treatment was achieved using polydioxanon cord fixation for the traumatic SC dislocation.

Implications:
