Abstract
Arthroscopic low-profile reconstruction for acute acromioclavicular joint instability
Highlights
Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation represents one of the most common injuries of the shoulder girdle and mainly affects young patients who are active in sports [1,2,3]
Biomechanical studies suggested that an additional AC cerclage can reconstruct and stabilize the AC joint in the horizontal plane [10, 11]
The two suture pairs are pulled in an alternating manner until the superior button is on the level of the clavicle enabling an anatomical reduction of the AC joint (
