摘要
Upper-extremity deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) is not frequently reported in orthopaedic literature. We report a case of upper-limb DVT following an acute clavicular fracture that was treated conservatively with a figure-of-eight sling. Diagnosis of this condition requires a high index of suspicion, and treating it would prevent a potentially fatal pulmonary embolism. DVT following acute clavicle fracture was not reported in the past.
