Clavicular-Sided Tears Were the Most Frequent Mode of Failure During Biomechanical Analysis of Acromioclavicular Ligament Complex Failure During Adduction of the Scapula

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the force and failure pattern of the acromioclavicular ligament complex (ACLC) in an adducted scapula, potentially simulating an indirect force injury of the AC joint. By using a biomechanical simulation in which the scapula is moved and the clavicl...
