 Abstract
- PURPOSE
To evaluate the clinical and radiological result of surgical treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation, using modified Phemister technique with tension band wiring.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We chose 17 patients who were able to follow up 1 year or more among the patients who were diagnosed as acromioclavicular joint dislocation in our hospital through January 2000 to Feburary 2005 and took modified Phemister technique with tension band wiring. Evaluation of the surgical results was done with the condition of pain, activity of daily living, range of motion, muscle tone by constant score system, and with preoperative, postoperative and last follow up radiographs.
RESULTS
Clinical evaluation was average 92 point by Constant score system from 84 point to 100 point. Subjective evaluation was 11 excellent (65%), 6 good (35%). Radiological evaluation was 9 excellent (54%), 6 good (38%), 2 fair (12%), and no poor group. On the final follow up, two cases showed inflammatory reaction at where pins were inserted, but after the removal of the pins, the inflammation was subsided.
CONCLUSION
The modified Phemister surgery for acromioclavicular dislocation is one of effective techniques, we can obtain firm fixation, exercise full range of motion early and there is no complication of re-dislocation.

Abstract
- PURPOSE
To evaluate the functional outcomes of the severely comminuted intra-articular calcaneal fractures that were selectively treated with primary subtalar arthrodesis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This study is based on the 9 patients, 10 feet of intra-articular severely comminuted calcaneal fractures that were treated with open reduction and internal fixation with primary subtalar arthrodesis due to inability to reconstruct the subtalar articular surface with follow-up of more than 1 year. Postoperative clinical evaluation was performed with AOFAS Hindfoot functional scores. The patient satisfaction, returning to previous occupation and complications were also investigated.
RESULTS
Follow-up period was average 20.3 months. Overall AOFAS functional score at final follow-up was average 71.8 points and VAS pain score was 3.9. Fifty percent of the patients were satisfied with the surgery and 80% of the patients were able to return to their previous occupations at average 8.4 months after trauma. Post-operative complications were 2 cases of sural nerve injuries and 1 hindfoot valgus malunion.
CONCLUSION
We concluded that the primary subtalar arthrodesis is a viable surgical option for severely comminuted calcaneal fractures with favorable functional result and early returning of most patients to their previous occupations.
