Abstract

Sternoclavicular joint injuries represent 5% of all injuries to the shoulder complex. We report a safe and reproducible technique for reconstruction of anterior sternoclavicular joint dislocations, employing a synthetic graft using a unicortical technique with minimal dissection anterior to the joint.
