Functional improvement in patients with Sprengel's deformity following Modified Green's procedure and simplified clavicle osteotomy-a study of forty cases.

The modified Green's procedure with simplified clavicle osteotomy allows for excellent correction of function and cosmesis. We describe a simpler technique of clavicle osteotomy that is quick, safe and equally effective in preventing neurovascular complications. We also describe a surrogate clinical test to avoid potential neurological injury in the absence of neuromonitoring. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second-largest operative series of Sprengel's deformity.
