Sumario: | There are many documented techniques for the surgical treatment of a chronic acromioclavicular (AC) joint reconstruction, but unfortunately, there is no gold standard. Treatment options include hook plates, allograft reconstruction, and suture fixation, among many others. This technique is an innovative method for looping the allograft around the coracoid and clavicle and using the hook plate for fixation. This avoids any drilling within the clavicle or coracoid, therefore decreasing the risk of fracture and ensuring the reduction of the AC joint. |
