title: [Results of surgically managed acromioclavicular joint rupture in adults].
abstract: 60 out of 69 (87%) patients were reexaminated after operation for a trauma of the actomioclavicular articulation of type TOSSY III. The evaluation includes functional, radiological and cosmetical-subjective criterions. The surgical treatment consists of fixation of the clavicula to the coracoid with screw figure-of-eight suture and suture or plastic of the ligament. The results correspond to those of other surgical techniques.
