A member asked:
Can a bone in neck appearing on mri require neck surgery. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: It depend on the bone and what's wrong with it. I see in your profile you mentionned "broken clavicle". If you have a simple fracture, it may be treated conservatively. If the fracture is comminuted, infected or articular, surgery may be the best way to treat.
