Management of type 3 acromioclavicular joint dislocations--current controversies.
AC (acromioclavicular) joint dislocations are a common injury seen by physicians. Symptoms range from minor discomfort with activity to complete disability of the extremity. Although most orthopaedic surgeons agree on how to treat either mild (type 1-2) or severe (type 4-6) injuries, there is no consensus for treatment of type 3 injuries. This article reviews the relevant literature pertaining ...
متن کاملArthroscopically Assisted Treatment of Acute Dislocations of the Acromioclavicular Joint.
Arthroscopically assisted treatments for dislocations of the acromioclavicular joint combine the advantages of exact and visually controlled coracoid tunnel placement with the possibility of simultaneous treatment of concomitant injuries. The clinical results of previous arthroscopically assisted techniques have been favorable at midterm and long-term follow-up. The presented surgical technique...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of Rockwood grade-V acromioclavicular joint dislocations
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Long-term outcome after surgery for grade-V acromioclavicular joint dislocation has not been reported. We performed a retrospective analysis of functional and radiographic outcome 15-22 years after surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined 50 patients who were treated at our hospital between April 1985 and December 1993. Various methods of stabilization were used: K-wir...
متن کاملDouble Endobutton Technique for Repair of Complete Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocations
A gold standard for the reconstruction of the coracoclavicular complex has yet to emerge for the treatment of separation of the acromioclavicular joint. Most of the current techniques not only fail to recreate the original anatomy, but also do not use materials that are strong enough to maintain the reduction during the healing process. Using a weak and nonanatomical construct has predictably l...
متن کاملReconstruction of Acute Acromioclavicular (AC) Joint Dislocations with or without Tendon Graft: a Retrospective Comparative Study
Background: Reconstructions of acute acromioclavicular (AC) dislocations have been thought to result in superioroutcomes than chronic dislocations. The use of tendon graft in reconstructions has demonstrated favorablebiomechanical properties. To determine whether utilizing tendon graft during repair of acute AC dislocations results insuperior outcomes and lower complication ra...
