Using suture anchors for coracoclavicular fixation in treatment of complete acromioclavicular separation.

Overview

For the repair of acromioclavicular separations, we describe a new method of securing the clavicle to the coracoid process using suture anchors. We have repaired 11 consecutive complete acromioclavicular separations in this manner with very good results. We find this to be an easy and reproducible method of anatomical fixation.
