Abstract
Arthroscopic subacromial decompression is gaining wide acceptance. There are several reports on its technique, its limitations, and its efficacy. However, papers describing complications are rare. We describe a case of osteolysis of the distal clavicle after overenthusiastic arthroscopic subacromial decompression.
