Abstract
Posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint is a well-reported condition, but can be overlooked as it is difficult to diagnose. We present the case of a 17-year-old male rugby player in which the diagnosis was not recognised at his initial presentation.
Özet
Sternoklaviküler eklemin posterior çıkığı sık bildirilmiş bir sorun olmasına rağmen, tanı koyma zorluğundan dolayı göz ardı edilme olasılığı bulunmaktadır. Çalışmamızda ilk başvurusunda tanı konulamayan, on yedi yaşında erkek bir ragbi oyuncusu olgusunu değerlendirdik.
