    Posterior sternoclavicular joint dislocations, though rare, require prompt recognition. Early diagnosis and treatment in the emergency department lead to favorable outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Emergency Medicine
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Posterior sternoclavicular joint dislocations are considered rare injuries.
    • Understanding their diagnosis and management is crucial for patient care.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of posterior sternoclavicular joint dislocation are presented.
    • Patients exhibit a palpable hollow at the sternoclavicular junction post-injury.

    Findings:

    • Successful reduction achieved with local anesthesia in one case.
    • Closed reduction under general anesthesia was necessary for a delayed presentation (72 hours post-injury).
    • Sternal oblique X-rays and tomograms aid in accurate diagnosis.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Prompt recognition and emergency department management can yield positive results.
  • Highlights the importance of considering this diagnosis in relevant trauma cases.
  • Emphasizes the potential risks associated with sternoclavicular joint injuries.
