Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation is a
common clinical problem among young and athletic populations.
Surgical management is widely used for high-grade dislocations
(Rockwood III-VI) and in high-demand athletes at high risk of

of sport. There is a lack of consensus in the literature for what
constitutes a safe RTP, with further focus on this topic required
in future studies.
