RESUMO
Objective To explore the clinical effect of reconstruction of coracoclavicular and acromioclavicular ligaments with multi - bundle - polystyrene - suture for treatment of Ⅲ degree acromioclavicular dislocation. Methods 30 patients with Ⅲ degree acromio-clavicular dislocation were randomly divided into two groups. Multi - bundle - polystyrene - suture was used to reconstruct coracoclavicular and acromioclavicular ligaments in treatment group; Cross - Kirschner and tension bands or clavicular hook plates were used to reconstruct coracoclavicular ligaments in control group. Then the clinical effects of the two methods were analyzed and assessed clinically. Results The clinical effects of treated group was significantly better than those of the control group on the volume of blood loss, surgical time and shoulder function. Conclusion It is a simple, minimally invasive, inexpensive and effective method. We need not to remove the internal fixation to reconstruct coracoclavicular and acromioclavicular ligaments with multi - bundle - polystyrene - suture for treatment of Ⅲ degree acromioclavicular dislocation.
