15. Εἰ μέντοι τινὶ ἐπὶ τἀναντία ἡ κληῒς κατεαγείη, ὃ οὐ μάλα
γίνεται, ὥστε τὸ μὲν ἀπὸ τοῦ στήθεος ὀστέον ὑποδεδυκέναι, τὸ δὲ ἀπὸ
τῆς ἀκρωμίης ὀστέον ὑπερέχειν καὶ ἐποχέεσθαι ἐπὶ τοῦ ἑτέρου,
οὐδεμιῆς μεγάλης ἰητρείης ταῦτά γ᾿ ἂν δέοιτο· αὐτὸς γὰρ ὁ ὦμος
ἀφιέμενος καὶ ὁ βραχίων ἱδρύοι ἂν τὰ ὀστέα πρὸς ἄλληλα, καὶ
φαύλη ἄν τις ἐπίδεσις ἀρκέοι, καὶ ὀλίγαι ἡμέραι τῆς πωρώσιος γένοιντ᾿
ἄν.

[15] But if the clavicle be fractured in the opposite manner (which does not readily happen), so that the fragment of bone connected with the breast is depressed, while the piece connected with the acromion is raised up and rides over other, this case does not require much management, for if the shoulder and arm be let go, the fragments of the bone will be adjusted to one another, and an ordinary bandage will suffice, and the callus will be formed in the course of a few days.
