| Popis: | Background We welcomed the innovative arthroscopic stabilization of the acromioclavicular joint dislocations with the Tightrope as it seemed promising regarding results and rehabilitation however our results were not satisfactory. Materials and Methods We clinically and radiographically reviewed the first thirty one consecutive patients treated with this method and analysed their scores in search of correlations between results and patient, injury or surgery factors. Results We had 19% failure rate that was not statistically correlated with any factors. Conclusion We believe the Tightrope alone is not adequate to stabilize the acromioclavicular joint as it does not address the acromioclavicular ligament and the instability at the anteroposterior plane. |
