Osteoarthritis of the sternoclavicular joint: is clavicular length a risk factor?

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent disorder of the Sternoclavicular Joint (SCJ), with a reported lifetime prevalence of approximately 50%, yet it is rarely observed in individuals under the age of 35.

Description
Summary:Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent disorder of the Sternoclavicular Joint (SCJ), with a reported lifetime prevalence of approximately 50%, yet it is rarely observed in individuals under the age of 35. When symptomatic, it manifests with pain and swelling. Although OA is strongly age-related, the influence of biomechanical factors - such as clavicular length - remains unknown.
