Case series demonstrates favorable outcomes with conservative management in patients with acromioclavicular dislocation and coracoid fracture, highlighting the utility of axillary radiography.
Two cases of acromioclavicular dislocation associated with fracture of the coracoid process are described. This association is unusual and the coracoid fracture may only be recognised on an axillary radiograph of the shoulder. Both the cases were treated conservatively, with good results. The management and outcome of other cases described in the literature are reviewed and discussed.
