She picked up the left collarbone, which was nearer the edge of the table, and indicated a faint, smooth seam near the end that joined the shoulder. "The lateral epiphysis is fully fused, which you'd expect, since the dude's a grown-up."

disagree  Polangmar: Zgodnie z ogólną nomenklaturą medyczną nasada bliższa to nasada znajdująca się bliżej centrum ciała. W pytaniu chodzi o obojczyk, a nie kość ramienną, a więc o nasadą dalszą (ściślej jej boczną część), czyli koniec barkowy (inaczej boczny).

koniec barkowy


Explanation:
koniec boczny, nasada boczna

W tekście użyto terminu "lateral epiphysis" zamiast "lateral end" - są to jednak synonimy.

The lateral epiphysis forms and fuses in a remarkably short time around 18 to 19 years of age. The medial epiphysis [=koniec przyśrodkowy] is the last in the body to ossify, at age 18 to 20 years, and the last to complete ossification, at age 23 to 25 years of age.

It can be divided into three parts: medial end, lateral end and shaft.
(...)
The clavicle is the first bone to begin the process of ossification (laying down of minerals onto a preformed matrix) during development of the embryo, during the 5th and 6th weeks of gestation. However, it is one of the last bones to finish ossification at about 21–25 years of age, and a study measuring 748 males and 252 females saw a difference in clavicle length between age groups 18-20 and 21-25 of about 6 and 5 mm for males and females respectively. Its lateral end is formed by intramembranous ossification while medially it is formed by endochondral ossification. It consists of a mass of cancellous bone surrounded by a compact bone shell. The cancellous bone forms via two ossification centres, one medial and one lateral, which fuse later on.

Drugi koniec, barkowy, łączy się z wyrostkiem barkowym łopatki.

Explanation:
"koniec" nie jest terminem zgodnym z mianownictwem anatomicznym.

Poprawka: chyba, że chodzi o miano extremitas (=koniec) - nie jest ono tożsame z epiphysis (=nasada).
