Arthroscopic Anatomic Knotless Coracoclavicular Ligament Repair Without Coracoid Drilling

Abstract

Acromioclavicular joint injuries are common in young active patients. A wide variety of surgical techniques exist to address specific complications associated with surgery. Complications after surgery include loss of reduction, fracture of the clavicle or coracoid, failure of fixation, and prominent and symptomatic hardware. This technique aims to reduce these complications with an arthroscopic anatomic coracoclavicular ligament repair using knotless adjustable loop buttons with fifth-generation suture tape and no drilling of the coracoid.
