Acromioclavicular joint reconstruction: complications and innovations

Jefferson C Brand et al. Arthroscopy. 2015 May.

Abstract

Minimally invasive anatomic reconstruction of the acromioclavicular joint is a technically challenging procedure. The repair must be sufficiently strong and reconstitute the joint as closely as possible. This includes restoration of both superior-inferior stability, and the often overlooked anterior-posterior stability, of the acromioclavicular joint. There is no gold standard treatment for acromioclavicular joint separation.
