Functional coracoclavicular stabilization for acute acromioclavicular joint disruption.

This article presents a coracoclavicular functional stabilization technique to restore the anteroposterior and vertical displacement of the disrupted clavicle and thus facilitate early joint motion and final shoulder function.
