Objective: Our present study aims to determine a relationship between the length of the clavicle and the depth at which the neurovascular structures lie. Methods: Our study was conducted on 30 cadavers (30 right upper limbs __ampersandsignamp; 30 left upper limb). Measuring tape, vernier callipers and cay wires were used to determine the length and the depth of the clavicle. Results: After the thorough statistical observation and analysis of the data set, we were able to apply the regression equation. By careful calculation, we derived the regression coefficient for this particular data set and were able to arrive at an accurate result. Conclusion: Hence, by this equation, we could determine the depth of the neurovascular structures just by knowing the length of the clavicle. The present study could help orthopaedics intraoperatively in the precise selection of the screws which could minimize the risk of injury to subclavian vessels in the surgery and favour desirable outcomes.&#13;
