Comparison of the TightRope system versus hook plate in acute acromioclavicular joint dislocations: a retrospective analysis

Abstract This study compared the results of the minimally invasive coracoclavicular (CC) fixation with a single TightRope (MITR) procedure and the hook plate (HP) procedure for acute acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation treatment. Sixteen patients with a mean age of 44.9 ± 11 years were treated...
