Abstract:
Authors applied an acromioplasty, eg., division of coraco-acromial ligament and an excision of lateral 1cm of clavicle to 4 out of 50 cases who complained of persistent shoulder pain following mild trauma in spite of conservative care for several months. We believe that surgical intervention to post-traumatic shoulder pain is worth while.
