Excerpt

A full-term baby boy required moderate resuscitation at birth. Clinical examination revealed a painless lump of the right clavicle. Radiographically, the borders of the two fragments were sclerotic (Fig. 1) and follow-up US showed no callus formation. These findings confirmed the diagnosis of congenital pseudarthrosis of the clavicle (CPC).
