Treatment of complete acromioclavicular dislocation by extraarticular coracoclavicular repair

Abstract

14 patients with complete acromioclavicular dislocation were treated by extraarticular coracoclavicular repair between 1992 and 1995 in Orthopaedic Surgery Department, Faculty of Medicine, University of Trakya. Complete acromioclavicular dislocation was diagnosed on stress X-rays. Dislocation lasting less than 10 days (acute phase) were treated by primary coracoclavicular ligament repair plus coracoclavicular fixation by screw. Cases with a history lasting more than 10 days (chronic phase) were corrected by distal clavicular resection, coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction with coracoacromial ligament and coracoclavicular fixation with lag screw. The screw was removed 8 weeks after the operation in acute cases and after 3 months in chronic cases. Considering the fact that coracoclavicular ligament is a primary supporting ligament of the acromioclavicular articulation. We preferred extraarticular coracoclavicular repair for complete dislocation of this joint. The reason for why complete acromioclavicular dislocation was treated by surgery could be explained by the fact that achievement of shoulder biomechanics requires anatomical acromioclavicular reduction and disrupted ligament repair.
