| Core Tip |
The TightRope system is a common treatment strategy for acute Rockwood type III acromioclavicular joint dislocation. Conventional surgery requires frequent intraoperative fluoroscopy, which poses potential risks to both patients and operating personnel. We developed a 3-point positioning technique to reduce intraoperative fluoroscopy time. This method uses a Kirschner wire and surface markings to establish a stable trajectory under fluoroscopic guidance by aligning the Kirschner wire, clavicular tunnel position, and the guidewire in a straight line. This technique facilitates rapid, accurate drilling and implant placement while significantly reducing fluoroscopic time. |
