Loss of habitual bone morphology of the clavicle due to fracture malunion.
Case Discussion
Bone regeneration after fractures is a physiological process that can occur inappropriately, leading to fracture malunion, that is, when the bone structure is healed in a non-anatomical position, which can lead to important functional limitation of the affected region.
