Abstract

Disorders of the sternoclavicular (SC) joint are becoming increasingly recognized as significant contributors to shoulder dysfunction in many patients, especially after a traumatic injury. Despite the increased interest, a thorough understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics of the SC joint is required for safe and efficient surgical treatment. The purpose of this article is to review the current state of anatomical and biomechanical knowledge surrounding the SC joint and to discuss their implications on surgical intervention.
