Clavicle fracture is one of common injuries in young adult and fracture in the middle third is the most common injury cases in clavicle fractures. Although clavicle fractures are often seen, in some circumstances bilateral clavicle fractures can occur due to high-energy impact injury, but this is an extremely rare and seldom reported on.
