Abstract

Background

A synthetic ligament (LockDown, Worcestershire, England) has become available to treat complete acromioclavicular dislocation with promising clinical results and potential benefit to avoid postoperative loss of reduction. We investigated the biomechanics of this synthetic ligament in a simulated immediate postoperative rehabilitation setting, hypothesizing that the synthetic ligament would demonstrate less superior...
