Closed-Loop Double Endobutton Technique for Repair of Unstable Distal Clavicle Fractures
BACKGROUND Displaced fractures of the distal clavicle are inherently unstable and lead to nonunion in a high percentage of cases. The optimal surgical management remains controversial. HYPOTHESIS Indirect osteosynthesis with a closed-loop double endobutton construct would result in reliable fracture union and obviate the need for additional surgery. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of eviden...
متن کاملModified closed-loop double-endobutton technique for repair of rockwood type III acromioclavicular dislocation
Acromioclavicular dislocation (ACD) is a common injury. According to the Rockwood classification, ACD is classified into six types (type I-VI); however, for type III injuries, it remains controversial whether or not operative treatment should be applied. Numerous studies have advocated early surgical treatment to ensure early rehabilitation activities. Thus, the present study aimed to investiga...
متن کاملFunctional Results of Unstable (Type 2) Distal Clavicle Fractures Treated with Superior Anterior Locking Plate
Background: The treatment of distal clavicle fracture is always a challenge, as it is mostly unstable and has higherrate of delayed union, malunion, non-union and associated acromioclavicular arthritis. So the management of thesefractures remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional results of Type 2 distal endclavicle fractures treated with superior anterior l...
متن کاملArthroscopically Assisted Fixation of Unstable Distal Third Clavicle Fractures
INTRODUCTION Clavicle fractures are common injuries, representing 35 to 45% of fractures of the shoulder girdle. Fifteen to 25% of those involve the distal portion of the clavicle. Previously, non-operative management of midshaft clavicle fractures was based on the premise that even grossly malunited fractures had a minimal impact on functional outcomes. However, level I evidence supports the i...
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...
