From shoulder to spine: A rare case of K-wire migration after acromioclavicular fixation [PDF]

Trauma Case Reports
Acromioclavicular dislocation is frequently managed with temporary K-wire fixation, but wire migration remains a rare and serious complication. We report a case of intraspinal K-wire migration following acromioclavicular stabilization in a 58-year-old ...
