The therapy of the midshaft clavicle fracture, in particular dislocated midshaft fractures, remains controversial. Therefore the objective of this study was to obtain data about the current treatment for midshaft clavicle fractures. ⋯ This survey demonstrates a high rate (26%) of German trauma hospitals operating clavicular midshaft fractures. This result is consistent with recently published studies showing better results for operative treatment of dislocated midshaft clavicular fractures compared to conservative therapy.
