Summary

This study will evaluate the non-inferiority of conservative management for acromioclavicular clavicle disjunction, compared with surgical management. Half of patients will be treated with a specific standardized rehabilitation protocol, and the other half will be treated with coracoclavicular and acromioclavicular fixation, followed by a another specific standardized rehabilitation protocol.

Outcomes:

The primary outcome is the non-inferiority of the conservative management over surgical management of Rockwood III-V Acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation (ACJD) without PICCAT with American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES score) at one year. If the non-inferiority is reached, the non-inferiority of the conservative management over surgical the management of Rockwood III-V ACJD with PICCAT using ASES score at one year will be evaluated.

Secondary outcomes were radiological criteria (i.e. comparison of ipsilateral and contralateral coracoclavicular distance on anterior view; and dynamic posterior shaft of the cross-body adduction Basamania/Alexander view) return to sports, work absenteeism, complication rate, cosmetic results, patients satisfaction, Constant score, Single Assesment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score, Acromioclavicular Joint Instability (ACJI) score, ASES score at others timepoints, and range of motion of the implicated shoulder. Finally, multivariable regression analysis will be performed in order to evaluate the impact of predictors of interest on ASES score at one year.
