Currently, there are many mature surgical techniques for the treatment ofacromioclavicular joint dislocation, but most of them involve establishing bony tunnel by drilling the coracoid or clavicle, which increases the risk of fractures. This Technical Note describes an arthroscopic surgical technique for acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation that uses 2 high-strength ORTHOCORD sutures to achieve reduction of the dislocated joint. This technique avoids drilling holes in the clavicle or coracoid, thereby reducing the likelihood of fracture-related complications.

Structural Joints: Fibrous Joints
Suture
All the bones of the skull, except for the mandible, are joined to each other by a fibrous joint called a suture. The fibrous connective tissue found at a suture strongly unites the adjacent skull bones and thus helps to protect the brain and form the face. In...

There are two types of cartilaginous joints:

Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
