Distal clavicular fracture frequently requires operative treatment due to high rate of non-union. The operative technique includes the tension band wiring, K- wire fixation, and cerclage wiring etc. Each method has disadvantages somewhat like pin migration or acromioclavicular joint injury and so on. For the distal clavicular fracture type 2a, because of its oblique fracture line, the cerclage wiring is suitable. We performed the cerclage wiring percutaneously under minimal incision without injury to periosteum for the patient who had the distal clavicular fracture type 2a, and the result was favorable.
