Abstract

Sternoclavicular joint dislocation (SCJD) is a rare injury, accounting for less than 1% of all dislocations. Posterior SCJD poses life-threatening risks due to its proximity to vital structures. We present a case of a 21-year-old male with traumatic left posterior SCJD from a road accident. Closed reduction failed, leading to open reduction and a figure-of-eight reconstruction using the semitendinosus tendon as an autograft. Prompt and tailored management is crucial in addressing such rare injuries effectively.
