A modified Weaver-Dunn procedure without need for internal fixation.
The shoulder as the most mobile joint in the body has a complex anatomy providing it with an increased range of motion, at the expense of its stability. The complex of ligaments and tendons around the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) is prone to injury especially during sporting activity or following falls onto the apex of the shoulder. The original classification of ACJ dislocations having been m...
متن کاملModified Weaver-Dunn procedure for acromioclavicular joint dislocations.
The acromioclavicular joint is commonly affected by trauma to the shoulder girdle due to its subcutaneous position. Athletes who participate in contact sports, such as hockey, football, rugby, and soccer, are particularly susceptible to such injuries. These injuries, however, also occur during noncontact sports such as baseball, skiing, and cycling. The majority of acromioclavicular injuries oc...
متن کاملModified Weaver-Dunn procedure versus the use of a synthetic ligament for acromioclavicular joint reconstruction.
PURPOSE. To compare the subjective outcome of acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) reconstruction using the modified Weaver-Dunn procedure versus the Surgilig synthetic ligament. METHODS. 55 patients aged 19 to 72 (mean, 42) years underwent ACJ reconstruction of Rockwood grade 3 (n=38), grade 4 (n=8), and grade 5 (n=9) using the modified Weaver-Dunn procedure (n=31) or the Surgilig synthetic ligament ...
متن کاملModified Weaver-Dunn Procedure Versus The Use of Semitendinosus Autogenous Tendon Graft for Acromioclavicular Joint Reconstruction
BACKGROUND The optimal operative method for acromioclavicular joint reconstruction remains controversial. The modified Weaver-Dunn method is one of the most popular methods. Anatomic reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligaments with autogenous tendon grafts, widely used in treating chronic acromioclavicular joint instability, reportedly diminishes pain, eliminates sequelae, and improves functio...
متن کاملKinematic evaluation of the modified Weaver-Dunn acromioclavicular joint reconstruction.
BACKGROUND Few reconstructive methods to treat displaced acromioclavicular separations have been evaluated using kinematic data. HYPOTHESIS The modified Weaver-Dunn reconstruction restores intact acromioclavicular joint motion during passive scapular plane abduction. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Acromioclavicular joint motion was recorded during passive humeral elevat...
