Abstract

ABSTRACT

There are money surgical treatment options available for the acromioclavicular joint dislocations. The modified Bosworth technique is an accepted technique due to both facility of application and best results. In the literature the complication of screw loosening reaching to 10% following the modified Bosworth technique has been reported. In our opinion is not reliable to ensure fixation again the same technique as a result of loosening of the screw. The fixation with cable and domino is an easy and reliable technique which may be used also in the primer surgery.
