Abstract
Modified Phemister procedure provides a good result in the surgical treatment of Rockwood type iii AC joint dislocation. Functional results and patient satisfaction with the treatment performed are very high. The partial loss of the radiological reduction during the follow-up does not necessarily mean a worse functional result, and in any case the radiological assessment was worse than that resulting from the initial injury. The ability to carry out normal daily living activities and the functional assessment obtained the most satisfactory results.
