Abstract/Notes

Patients rarely present to a chiropractic office setting during the acute stage of a high-grade (i.e. Rockwood types IV-VI) separation of the acromioclavicular (AC) joint. Moreover, such cases are non-existent in the peerreviewed chiropractic literature. Some controversy exists over the optimal (surgical vs. non-surgical) treatment of severe AC joint injuries. Published reports of nonoperative management for grade V injuries of the AC joint are also scarce. This case review highlights the plain film imaging and conservative management of a 57-year-old patient diagnosed with an acute Rockwood type V AC joint separation. Radiographs with nine years of follow-up are presented.

Les patients se présentent rarement à une clinique de chiropratique pendant la phase aiguë d’une séparation de haut grade (c.-à-d., types IV à VI de Rockwood) de l’articulation acromio-claviculaire(AC). En outre, ces cas n’existent pas dans la littérature sur la chiropratique examinée par les pairs. Le traitement optimal (chirurgical vs non chirurgical) des lésions graves de l’articulation AC ne fait pas l’unanimité. Les rapports publiés sur la prise en charge non chirurgicale des lésions de grade V de l’articulation AC sont également peu abondants. Cet examen de cas met en lumière l’imagerie par radiographie et la prise en charge conservatrice d’un patient de 57 ans souffrant de séparation aiguë de l’articulation AC de type V de Rockwood. Les radiographies avec neuf ans de suivi sont présentées.
