ACROMIOCLAVICULAR JOINT DISLOCATION-MANAGEMENT BY MODIFIED PHEMISTER TECHNIQUE AND BOSWORTH TECHNIQUE

AMARNATH SIVAKUMAR

Abstract


Abstract :
Acromioclavicular joint dislocation has
been one of the difficult conditions to be
treated operatively. No other joint in the
human body is treated in many ways as
the Acromioclavicular joint. Eight patients
with isolated Type 3 Rockwood's Acromioclavicular
joint dislocation were selected
and managed with either modified
Phemister technique or Bosworth technique.
The aim of the study is to analyse
and compare the functional outcome of
the shoulder in patients with Type 3
Rockwood's Acromioclavicular joint dislocation
managed by Modified Phemister
technique or Bosworth technique using
UCLA score.
Keyword :Acromioclavicular joint dislocation,
Rockwood's classification, Conoid
and Trapezoid ligaments, Modified
Phemister technique, Bosworth technique,
UCLA score.
