title: [Results of treatment following surgical management of complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Tossy III injury). Management using ligament sutures and direct transarticular and indirect extra-articular stabilization].
abstract: In the last 5 years 36 patients with complete akromioklavikular separation were treated in 21 cases by ligament suture and Balser-plate, in 15 cases by ligament suture and "Zuggurtung". Good and very good results were found in 85%. Patients in which the protection of the ligament suture was given by application of the Hook-plate had better results than those with "Zuggurtung". The use of the Balser-plate remarks a safe method in protecting the coracoid-clavicular ligament suture. The rate of complications is rare, compared with the patients in the other group. Functional results seem to be better in comparison to other methods of operative treatment.
