DescriptionBONE, clavicle, pair Clavicles, a pair of, showing deformity after symmetrical fracture at the junction of the medial with the middle third of the body. The bones are light and seem deficient in calcium. Each fracture has a salient angle anteriorly and there the bone is rounded and thickened. The swelling is greater on the right clavicle which is also slightly the larger. The rarefaction on the surface of the body of each clavicle indicates a hyperaemic superficial decalcification and it is associated with some new formation of light porous bone. In these clavicles the fractures have probably been incomplete
