Abstract
Five cases of painful bone resorption from the distal clavicle following shoulder trauma are reported to demonstrate that the lesion is generally benign. Surgical excision is curative. The multiplicity of circumstances leading to clavicular osteolysis suggest that the balance between bone accretion and resorption is precarious in this region of the skeleton.Keywords
