Acromioclavicular dislocations: Treatment by coracoacromial ligamentoplasty

Comparison of the outcome of early and delayed surgical treatment of complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation

“…however, no ACJinjury-specific scores, such as the Japanese ACJ score, Taft score and the Scheibel score, are performed in these studies. Four studies show that there is no significant difference in functional outcomes between early and delayed surgery [9,10,21,31]. Two studies show significant difference in clinical outcomes between early and delayed surgery [23,26].…”

“…The same surgical technique is used for early and delayed surgery in four studies [9,10,19,23]. These four surgical techniques include hook plate technique, coraco-clavicular (CC) reconstruction with lArS, Dewar-Barrington …”

“…CC ossification and ACJ degeneration are referred in two studies [9,26]. CC ossification is 41.0 % (25/61) in early surgery and 40.9 % (18/44) in delayed surgery.…”

Acromioclavicular reconstruction using autogenous semitendinosus tendon graft: Results of revision surgery in chronic cases

“…The results after chronic AC joint reconstruction are not as good as after primary reconstruction, but the outcome is considered satisfactory. 4,14 Unfortunately, the literature on revision surgery for failed AC reconstruction is scant. Jones et al 8 described in a case report the technique of autogenous semitendinosus tendon grafting for coracoclavicular ligament complex reconstruction in a failed case.…”

Treatment of Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries Using Clavicle Hook Plates

“…8,12,14) . 이후 Wolter에 의해 Wolter plate가 제안되었는데 이는 AC hook plate를 변형한 plate로 견봉 쇄골 관절 탈 구의 수직 변형력을 중화하여 정복을 유지시키는 간접 적 고정 방법이다 9) . 관절의 정복을 견고하게 유지할 수 있으며 조기에 관절 운동을 허용할 수 있어 최근 이용 빈도가 증가하고 있다 10,13,15) .…”
