Fracture of the clavicle is a common injury, although, simultaneous fracture of outer and inner ends of the same side is thought to be rare. We experienced such a rare case.A 48-year-old man fell down and contused the head and the right shoulder under the druken condition. On admission, one day after the injury, he was diagnosed roentgenologically and clinically as having fracture of the right occipital bone with epidural hematoma and the fracture of outer and inner sides of the right calvicle. Eight days after injury, osteosynthesis; plating for outer end and tension band wiring for inner end, were carried out with favourable results. Brief discussion on the fracture mechanism was made.
