The postoperative shoulder range of motion and weight lifting ability was excellent. Surgical management of acromioclavicular joint disruption by Modie Conclusion: d Weaver Dunn Procedure with suture anchor will give excellent anatomical reduction, good full range motion and weightlifting ability to the shoulder.
