Abstract
1. The lesions chiefly responsible for persistent pain and weakness after acromio-clavicular dislocations are tears of the trapezius and deltoid muscles. 2. These tears cannot be adequately treated except by open operation. 3. There are often physical barriers making closed manipulative reduction impossible. 4. Open reduction and repair of torn ligaments and muscle is advocated for manual workers.
