Arthroscopic Assisted Acromioclavicular Joint Stabilization Using a Tensionable Suture Button Construct and Cerclage Tape Augmentation. [PDF]
Arthrosc TechAbstract Surgical stabilization of the acromioclavicular joint can be achieved using a variety of techniques. Coracoclavicular fixation with tapes, sutures, and button systems is one of the surgical methods used to restore stability of the acromioclavicular joint. There is currently no definitive superior technique for acromioclavicular joint fixation,
