Abstract

Acromioclavicular joint injuries are among the most common shoulder injuries. High-grade injuries—typically types IV, V, and VI, with greater than 100% displacement in either a posterior or inferior direction—are typically treated surgically. Surgical techniques should aim toward anatomic reconstruction of the acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments and should also aim to reduce posterior rotation at the AC joint.
