Key Points

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of the Tightrope and Hook Plate techniques in treating acromioclavicular joint dislocations.
Conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines
Included 10 studies with a total of 640 patients
Performed statistical analysis using RevMan software.
Tightrope technique resulted in a significant reduction in pain (MD=-0.3, p=0.04)
Tightrope also showed lower intraoperative blood loss (MD=-36.14, p<0.00001)
No significant differences were found in shoulder function or joint stability between the two techniques.
