I had a displaced lateral fracture that was maybe a little further out. They might suggest a hook plate which sits along the top of the collar bone and then hooks under the acromion. This plate limits the movement of the shoulder so it is necessary to remove it once the bone is strong enough. Then again your collar bone might just settle back into place and start knitting without any help - they're funny like that.
Mine never mended and I had to have it removed. But I was really unlucky, plus I encountered a fair amount of incompetence.
