Acromioclavicular joint dislocation is a relatively common injury in the general population, especially in younger ages. Although acromioclavicular injuries are a well-studied topic, there are many controversies concerning not only the best way to treat them by operative or conservative methods but also determining the most effective fixation methods, providing better functional outcomes, faster rehabilitation protocols, fewer complications, and lower recurrence rates. In this case report, we present a case of type III acromioclavicular dislocation in a young athlete who was treated operatively using a double fixation technique, aiming to address these controversies and offer insights into the optimal management of such injuries.
肩锁关节脱位在普通人群中是一种相对常见的损伤,尤其是在年轻人中。尽管肩锁关节损伤是一个已得到充分研究的课题,但不仅在通过手术或保守方法治疗它们的最佳方式上存在许多争议,而且在确定最有效的固定方法、提供更好的功能结果、更快的康复方案、更少的并发症以及更低的复发率方面也存在争议。在本病例报告中,我们展示了一名年轻运动员的III型肩锁关节脱位病例,该病例采用双固定技术进行手术治疗,旨在解决这些争议,并为这类损伤的最佳管理提供见解。
