A Novel Technique for Midshaft Clavicle Fracture With Ipsilateral Acromioclavicular Dislocation: Titanium Elastic Nail Combined With Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction and Joint Capsule Suture

Key Points

To evaluate a new technique for treating midshaft clavicle fractures with ipsilateral acromioclavicular dislocations.
Applied titanium elastic nail fixation for midshaft clavicle fractures.
Performed coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction.
Sutured the acromioclavicular joint capsule to enhance stability.
Provided reliable stability post-surgery.
Showed satisfactory short-term radiographic outcomes.
Demonstrated positive functional outcomes in the initial recovery phase.

Abstract

The simple, combined technique of TEN fixation with CC ligament and AC joint capsule reconstruction provided reliable stability and satisfactory short-term radiographic and functional outcomes for MSCF with ipsilateral ACJD, representing a viable, minimally invasive alternative.
