ACJ Revision Surgery

CC Ligaments
1.5mm
Beardon
@thearmclinic
AC Ligaments
• Superior AC Lig = 56% Posterior Translation• Posterior AC Lig = 25% Posterior Translation
– Klimkiewikcz• Superior AC Lig = Rotational Stability
– Branch et al.
Urist, JBJSA. 1946
@thearmclinic
Note:• Post-op pain correlates with Translation, but not amount of
bone resected– Blazar et al. CORR. 1998
• Superior & Posterior not capable of stabilising clavicle - 32% incr. of posterior translation after Ant & Inf capsular resection
– Corteen & Teitge
– No difference if superior or inferior AC lig. cut (horizontal, vertical & rotatory instability)
– Branch et al. AJSM 1996
@thearmclinic
Failed ACJ Excision (Basmania, 1995)
1. Diagnostic Error2. Inadequate resection3. Joint Instability4. Weakness5. Miscellaneous
@thearmclinic
Failed ACJ Excision (Strauss et al. 2010)
Common Causes Less Common Causes
Instability Distal Clavicle Fracture
Under Resection Suprascapular neuropathy
Over Resection Other Cause - Neck pain, SLAP, etc.
Stiffness (29%)
Bony regrowth
Untreated Concomitant Pathology
Infection
@thearmclinic
Failed ACJ Excision (Robinson, Phandis, Torrance, Funk - in press 2016)
Common Causes Less Common Causes
Instability - 22% Distal Clavicle Fracture
Under Resection - 3% Suprascapular neuropathy
Over Resection - 8% Other Cause - Neck pain, SLAP, etc.
Stiffness - 12%
Bony regrowth
Untreated Concomitant Pathology - 4%
Infection - 0.8%
@thearmclinic
Unstable ACJ• Excess translation ‘with pain’ in any direction,
compared to the opposite side• Clinical• USS

• 23 revisions betw. 2008 - 2015• Mean Age = 32yrs (20-57)• M:F = 18:5

ACJ Reconstructions
>100 PUBLISHED!!
@thearmclinic
Harris et al. AJSM 2000“None of the reconstruction techniques were able to restore the normal mechanical function of the intact coracoclavicular ligament complex”
@thearmclinic
Revision Technique
• Anatomical Reconstruction• Very strong, but flexible• Allows early Rehab.• Biological• Avoid donor site• Allows variable options
@thearmclinic
LARS Ligament (Corin)
• Braided Polyethylenetraphthalate• 1500N tensile strength (30 LAC)
• No reduction in mechanical resilience after over 10 million wear cycles loaded in torsion, traction and flexion [Fialka et al. 2005;
• Vascularisation & Fibrous ingrowth - Collagen Type 1 [Trieb et al. Eur Surg Res. 2004; Yu et al. 2005; Pelletier & Durand]

@thearmclinic
Procedure(s)1. Remove all previous fix & Scar tissue2. Micro samples3. CC Ligs - LARS anatomical + ‘Biceps Flip’4. AC Ligs - LARS + Reverse CAL Transfer5. Delto-trapezial Reefing
@thearmclinic
• 23 cases over 7 years
• Follow-up = 37 months (24-48)• Constant Score = 51.8 pre to 85.2 post• 10% re-displaced radiologically• 13% superficial infections• No further revisions
Results (failed Recons)Robinson, Phandis, Torrance, Funk - in press 2016
@thearmclinic
Results (failed Excisions)Baxter, Robinson, Phandis, Torrance, Funk - in press 2016
• 13 cases over 5 years
• Follow-up = 34 months (24-48)• Constant Score = 26 pre to 73 post• 1 re-displaced radiologically• 1 chronic pain• No further revisions
@thearmclinic
Management
• Each case is unique• May be multiple problems
• Retained bone & unstable• Excess excision & scar neuroma
• Blame• Medicolegal• Multiple Opinions
• Diagnostic Injection
@thearmclinic
Summary
• Awareness• Test for Horizontal & Vertical Instability• Ultrasound• CT Scan
• Revise if Symptomatic• Strong• Anatomical• Biological
