[Dislocation of the acromioclavicular joint--conservative or surgical therapy?].
Reported in this paper are therapeutic results obtained from 54 hospitalised patients who had been treated for acromioclavicular dislocation. Indications, tactical approaches to treatment, and results are described and discussed in some detail. Good results were obtained from conservative treatment of Tossy-I injuries. However, surgery in the first place is recommended, when it comes to Tossy-II and Tossy-III serverities (ligament suture and temporary arthrodesis of the AC joint), as this has proved to yield results which were superior to secondary plastic ligament repair. Poorest results were recorded from conservative treatment of patients with Tossy-III injuries.
