A manual of modern surgery : an exposition of the accepted doctrines and approved operative procedures of the present time, for the use of students and practitioners . Deformity from fracture of clavicle united withdisplacement. (Hamilton.). Fracture of clavicle. exerted by the outer fragment being thrust under it and also to con-traction of the sterno-cleido-mastoid muscle. The displacement in-ward, forward and downward of the acromial fragment is due to thefact that the clavicle is the support or stay which holds the scapulaand its attached arm in proper relation to the thorax. When theclavicle is broken, the scapula, partly by reason of the weight of thearm and partly by the action of the great serrated and the lesser pec-toral muscles assisted perhaps by the rhomboids, is rotated forwardaround the dorso-lateral aspect of the chest in such a way as to depressthe acromion and carry it toward the anterior middle line of the displacement of the point of the shoulder and the consequent re-lation of the clavicular fragments are well shown in the diagram adaptedfrom Stimson. It represents in a schematic way the intact as well asthe broken shoulder girdle as the claviculo-scapular combination hasbeen called. The in
