{Abstract}: Congenital pseudarthrosis of the clavicle (CPC) is rare. It predominantly affects the right side for an unknown reason. Most of the reported cases are diagnosed outside the neonatal period. Only two CPC cases have been reported in Saudi Arabia, where both were diagnosed during childhood. Here, we present the case of a Saudi male newborn with right-sided CPC. The diagnosis was made shortly after birth because of the uneventful cesarean delivery and painless clavicular lump. Fetuses prefer keeping their head in a right lateral position which may be a plausible explanation for the right-side predominancy in the CPC.
