Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction
Operative intervention is recommended for complete acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation to restore AC stability, but the best operative technique is still controversial. Twelve fresh-frozen male cadaveric shoulders (average age, 62.8 7.8 years) were equally divided into endobutton versus the modified Weaver-Dunn groups. Each potted scapula and clavicle was fixed in a custom made jig to allo...

متن کاملLigament Augmentation and Reconstruction System Failures in Repair of Grade V Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation
The Ligament Augmentation and Reconstruction System® (LARS®) represents a popular synthetic anatomical reduction method for acromioclavicular joint dislocation by means of coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction. To our knowledge, no early failure has been documented in the literature. We present two unusual cases of LARS failure, one at four months after implant and the other at three weeks, ...
متن کاملComparison 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...
متن کاملTwo-Year Outcomes After Primary Anatomic Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to report the clinical and structural outcomes after anatomic coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction (ACCR) with free tendon allografts in patients with grade III and grade V acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocations. METHODS Thirty-one shoulders underwent primary ACCR with tendon allografts for Rockwood grade III and grade V AC joint dislocations. Preo...
