Abstract
- We reported two patients with fracture of distal clavicle combined with rupture of the coracoclavicular ligament which was treated by Weaver and Dunn method recently. The following results were obtained: 1. The over all recovery were graded good. 2. The Weaver and Dunn nethod is recommendabel for several reasons such as relatively easy surgical procedure, elimination of secondary procedure and degenerative change of the acromioclavicular joint, cosmetic acceptability and early functional recovery.
