Abstract:As of yet, there is no consensus on the technique for repairing acute high-grade acromioclavicular joint disruptions. Several minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques that avoid the large incision associated with open reconstruction have been described.

This potentially produces an increased risk for both traumatic and atraumatic fractures of the coracoid… Show more
