The authors' aim was to investigate the utility of US in the diagnosis of clavicular fractures in neonates. The technique, which is quite simple, consists in obtaining longitudinal scans of the bone by directing the probe along its axis. Ten cases of clavicular fracture were demonstrated in 11 neonates. Some patients were reexamined after 15 days to investigate fracture healing. After US examination, plain X-rays were always performed and the results compared: perfect correspondence was demonstrated between US and X-ray findings. Since clavicular fractures have a very good prognosis, this affection only needs documenting, for which purpose US can fully replace conventional X-rays, being quite simple to perform and avoiding the use of ionizing radiations, though yielding the same diagnostic results.
