double-button fixation system for management of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation
Authors
abstract
background: surgical treatments for acromioclavicular (ac) joint dislocation present with some complications. the present study was designed to evaluate the double-button fixation system in the management of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation. methods: this cross sectional study, done between february 2011 to june 2014, consisted of 28 patients who underwent surgical management by the double-button fixation system for acute ac joint dislocation. age, sex, injury mechanism, dominant hand, side with injury, length of follow up, time before surgery, shoulder and hand (dash), constant and visual analogue scale (vas) scores, and all complications of the cases during the follow up were recorded. results: the mean age of patients was 33.23±6.7 years. twenty four patients (85.71%) were male and four (14.28%) were female. the significant differences were observed between pre-operation vas, constant shoulder scores and post-operation measurements (p=0.001, p=0.0001, p=0.0001, respectively). there were not any significant differences between right and left coracoclavicular (p=0.238), but two cases of heterotrophic ossifications were recorded. the mean follow-up time was 16.17±4.38 months. conclusion: according to the results, the double-button fixation system for management of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation has suitable results and minimal damage to the soft tissues surrounding the coracoclavicular ligaments.

full textComparison of Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation Treatment by Screw Fixation with and without Ligament Reconstruction
Background & Aims: Acute acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation is common in shoulder injuries. Considering the biomechanics of this joint, the use of a treatment method, which can restore joint physiology and biomechanics to the extent possible, is important. This study aimed to compare the treatment of acute AC joint dislocation by screw fixation with and without ligament reconstruction. Me...

For treatment of acute acromioclavicular dislocation we chose operative treatment in which we fixed clavicule to coracoid with a screw. With regard to the clinical results, out of 6 patients who had gone under operation, only one had calcification at coracoclavicular ligament without limitation of motion. There were no serious postoperative complication.

Dislocation is the most common injury affecting the acromioclavicular (AC) joint. Six grades of AC joint dislocation are currently described, based on the degree and direction, of displacement. Complete rupture of both the AC and coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments is considered to be necessary before complete grade 3 dislocation of the AC joint can occur. Diagnosis is made on the basis of the clin...
