[Comparison of Tension Banding and Modified Orthocord Sling in Acromioclavicular Dislocation Treatment - Non-Randomized Retrospective Study].

CONCLUSIONS Even though the tension banding and orthocord modified sling rank among the oldest and the cheapest techniques available for AC dislocation treatment, their results are comparable with modern and costly techniques. The orthocord modified sling technique has an advantage of fast and cheap material extraction in outpatient conditions. Key words: AC dislocation, acromioclavicular joint dislocation, orthocord sling, tension banding, AC disruption, acromioclavicular joint disruption. PMID: 31070572 [PubMed - in process]
