Stress fracture of the clavicle is a rare entity. It can manifest itself with an atypical shoulder pain. The clavicle is vulnerable to pathological fractures from several causes such as neoplasm, infection and rarely metabolic bone disease.
We report a case of a bone insufficiency fracture of the clavicle, in a 67-year-old Moroccan woman patient with several risk factors of bone insufficiency including osteoporosis, osteomalacia and primary hyperparathyroidism.
The diagnosis of bone insufficiency-related fracture of the clavicle can be challenging. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of shoulder or clavicle pain.
锁骨应力性骨折是一种罕见的病症。它可能表现为非典型的肩部疼痛。锁骨易因多种原因发生病理性骨折,如肿瘤、感染,很少见的还有代谢性骨病。
我们报告一例67岁摩洛哥女性患者的锁骨骨量不足性骨折,该患者存在多种骨量不足的风险因素,包括骨质疏松、骨软化症和原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进。
锁骨骨量不足相关骨折的诊断可能具有挑战性。在肩部或锁骨疼痛的鉴别诊断中应考虑到这一点。
