A Comparative Study of Results of Transfixation Screw and Loop Fixation for Coracoclavicular Stabilisation in Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: Transfixation screw and loop fixation with mersilene tape and endobutton both are well established surgical methods for management of acute AC joint injuries. Materials and Methods: Patients meeting inclusion criteria between June,2013 to June,2015 were operated and followed up subsequently. Result: Out of 26 patients 1 was lost to follow up and 1 excluded for not meeting inclusion criteria. Eventually, our sample size became 24 out of which Transfixation group and Loop fixation group compromised 12 patients each. Conclusion: All of our patients reported satisfactory outcomes regardless the procedure adopted. Younger age group and non-meniscal injury group shows better outcome.
