Zusammenfassung

Unbehandelte, nicht erkannte oder unterschätzte akute Verletzungen des Schultereckgelenks sowie gescheiterte vorangegangene Therapien können zu einer chronischen Akromioklavikulargelenks-(ACG‑)Instabilität führen. Diese Instabilitäten stellen häufig eine therapeutische Herausforderung dar. Niedriggradige, isoliert vertikale ACG-Instabilitäten mit dem primären Beschwerdebild einer sekundären akromioklavikulären (AC-)Arthrose können mit einer sparsamen ACG-Resektion suffizient therapiert werden. Bei höhergradigen, unidirektionalen Instabilitäten kann ein korakoakromialer Bandtransfer (Weaver-Dunn-Verfahren) durchgeführt werden. Biomechanische und klinische Daten suggerieren hier allerdings bei einer rein korakoklavikulären (CC-)biologischen Augmentation mittels freier Sehnenplastik (Gracilis- oder Semitendinosussehne) bessere Ergebnisse. Höhergradige ACG-Instabilitäten mit kombiniert vertikaler und horizontaler Translation werden mit einer biologischen Augmentation mittels freier Sehnenplastik (Gracilis- oder Semitendinosussehne) und einem Flaschenzugimplantat versorgt. In diesem anspruchsvollen Patientengut zeigten sich im Rahmen erster arthroskopisch assistierter Techniken gute klinische und radiologische Ergebnisse mit einer akzeptablen Revisionsrate.

Abstract

Neglected, undetected or underestimated acute acromioclavicular (AC) joint injuries as well as failed previous treatment may lead to chronic AC joint instability. Treatment of these instabilities often presents a challenge. Low-grade, isolated vertical AC joint instabilities with symptomatic AC joint arthritis presenting as the major factor may be treated with careful lateral clavicle resection. High-grade, monodirectional instabilities can be treated with coracacromial ligament transfer (Weaver-Dunn). However, biomechanical and clinical data suggest that isolated coracoclavicular (CC) augmentation with a tendon transfer yields superior results. High-grade instabilities with combined vertical and horizontal translation are treated with biologic augmentation using a tendon transfer (e.g. gracilis or semitendinosus tendon) and a pulley-like implant. Clinical and radiologic results of arthroscopically assisted techniques in these challenging patients have been promising with an acceptable revision rate.
