Free Hand Drilling Technique to Enhance Central Position of Tunnels in Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Joint Fixation Using TightRope System.

ABSTRACT: Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocations represent one of the most common lesions in the shoulder. Arthroscopic reduction and ACJ fixation with the button system is one of the most used techniques for displaced and unstable dislocations. Difficulties with placing the tunnels in the central and correct position of the clavicular and coracoid can occur with the use of a guide, which can result in fractures, eccentric tunnel position, cortical rupture, prolongation of surgical times with its complications as bleeding, tissue infiltration, difficult visualization, and increased risk of infection. Prior free hand central tunnel placement in the clavicle with a 3.2 mm drill helps to keep in place the pin guide over the superior cortical of coracoid with reduction of guide movement to enhance the correct position of tunnel in the coracoid process avoiding bone complications.

Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Joint Reconstruction With TightRope and FiberTape Loop.

Project description:High-grade acromioclavicular (AC) injuries are frequent in the active population, and their treatment in the acute setting has reduced sequelae such as chronic pain, functional impairment, and inability to return to sports. Multiple techniques have been described to achieve reduction and fixation of the AC joint, but still there is no consensus. The objective of this Technical Note is to describe the reduction and internal fixation under arthroscopic assistance of the AC joint with the use of a double button implant plus high-strength tape in the acute setting.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Acromioclavicular Joint Reconstruction Using the TightRope Device With Allograft Augmentation: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Surgical management of acromioclavicular (AC) joint separations remains challenging, especially in the revision setting. Most commonly, Rockwood type I and II injuries are managed nonoperatively whereas type IV, V, and VI injuries are managed with surgery. Type III separations are more controversial, with evidence supporting both nonoperative and operative treatment options. Multiple different arthroscopic techniques have been described; however, there is no current gold standard. AC joint reconstruction with the TightRope device (Arthrex, Naples, FL) with the patient in the lateral decubitus position is a method of restoring joint stability that allows for a minimally invasive, low-profile fixation construct using a single drill hole through the clavicle. Allograft augmentation of this fixation construct helps to eliminate the stress risers potentially created by this device while increasing overall repair construct stability. The purpose of this article is to describe the surgical technique for arthroscopic AC joint reconstruction using a TightRope device with allograft augmentation.

Arthroscopic Coracoclavicular and Acromioclavicular Stabilization of Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation By Suspensory Fixation System.

Project description:Arthroscopic stabilization of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocations using coracoclavicular suspension techniques has become more popular, but lack of horizontal stability is a major concern that furthermore affects the final outcome. We present an arthroscopic technique to stabilize acute acromioclavicular joint dislocations in both the vertical and horizontal planes, with better results than conventional coracoclavicular suspension techniques.

All-Arthroscopic Technique for Reconstruction of Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocations.

Project description:Acromioclavicular joint dislocations are a common injury particularly among contact sports players. There has been an increasing trend toward arthroscopic management of these injuries. To date, these reconstructions have primarily addressed superoinferior instability by reconstructing the coracoclavicular ligaments. We describe an all-arthroscopic technique for reconstruction of the coracoclavicular ligaments using Arthrex ABS TightRopes (Arthrex, Naples, FL), with additional stabilization of the superior acromioclavicular joint capsule using an anchor-based suture bridge to address anteroposterior instability.

A Technique for a More Accurate Acromioclavicular Joint Reduction in Arthroscopic Coracoclavicular Stabilization of Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation.

Project description:Loss of reduction is the most common complication following acromioclavicular dislocations treatment, with literature showing greater postoperative coracoclavicular distances associated with worse clinical results. We present a surgical gesture that aims to help surgeons achieve and secure an anatomic acromioclavicular reduction during coracoclavicular fixation. This technique has the possibility to improve radiological and functional results of acromioclavicular dislocation treatment.

Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Joint Treatment With Coracoclavicular Fixation and Allograft Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction for Acute Acromioclavicular Dislocations.

Project description:Treatment of severe acromioclavicular joint injuries remains controversial and has evolved over the past 4-plus decades. Although several variations on reconstruction exist, an ideal technique will likely use a combination of coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction with suture backup stabilization, minimal drill holes to reduce the risk of fracture, arthroscopic-assisted guidance for anatomic graft and suture placement in and around the coracoid, and fluoroscopic-aided reduction to ensure an anatomic acromioclavicular joint. The objective of this Technical Note is to describe an arthroscopic-assisted coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction with allograft using fluoroscopically guided and cerclage-controlled anatomic reduction of the acromioclavicular joint.

Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Fixation With Suture Tape Augmentation After Coracoclavicular Fixation With Dog Bone Button: Surgical Technique.

Project description:An arthroscopic technique for the surgical treatment of acute acromioclavicular (AC) joint injuries is presented in this study. This procedure aims to achieve both vertical and horizontal stability through the healing of both coracoclavicular (CC) and AC ligaments. As a routine maneuver, arthroscopic CC stabilization was applied using the dog bone button to obtain only vertical stability. Additional arthroscopic AC joint fixation with suture tape augmentation is simple and easy and provides a safe technique to achieve horizontal stability of the joint and to increase the vertical stability to minimize the complications of standard CC reconstruction techniques.

Arthroscopically Assisted Comprehensive Double Cerclage Suture Fixation Technique for Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Separation.

Project description:Acromioclavicular dislocations are some of the most frequently recorded and controversial injuries in the athletic population. These injuries have historically been a matter of disagreement between surgeons, particularly when it comes to the surgical technique used to treat them, its approach, or its timing. Consensus over the "gold standard" procedure to treat them is yet to be established. Even though numerous surgical techniques have already been described, the number of complications and loss of reduction remains a matter of concern for treating physicians. Here, we present an arthroscopically assisted coracoclavicular and horizontal acromioclavicular fixation technique in a modified figure-of-eight configuration using 2 strong FiberTape Cerclage sutures, with measurable tension, for the comprehensive treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocations.

Arthroscopic Acromioclavicular Joint Reconstruction Using Knotless Coracoclavicular Fixation and Soft-Tissue Anatomic Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Acromioclavicular joint injuries are one of the most common shoulder injuries, and there are a variety of treatment options. Recently, there have been newer arthroscopic techniques that have addressed coracoid and clavicle fracture risk by using a knotted suture-button fixation through a single, small bone tunnel with additional looped soft-tissue graft stabilization. Although clinical outcomes have been good to excellent, there have still been instances of knot and hardware irritation. The described technique builds on the latest advances and achieves an anatomic coracoclavicular (CC) reconstruction through a single knotless CC fixation device with additional soft-tissue allograft reconstruction of the CC ligaments. This technique minimizes the risks of coracoid and clavicle fractures and knot and hardware irritation while maintaining excellent stability.

Arthroscopic Technique for Stabilization of Chronic Acromioclavicular Joint Instability With Coracoclavicular and Acromioclavicular Ligament Reconstruction Using a Gracilis Tendon Graft.

Project description:We present an arthroscopic technique for stabilization of chronic acromioclavicular (AC) joint instability using a transclavicular-transcoracoidal button technique, combined with a coracoclavicular and AC ligament reconstruction using the gracilis tendon. This arthroscopic technique achieves an anatomic reduction of the clavicle without further implant removal. It ensures vertical and horizontal stabilization of the AC joint. Using a horizontal drill hole through the clavicle and looping the gracilis tendon graft around the coracoid avoids weakening of the coracoid with the risk of fracture.
