The Stone Clinic is a sports medicine clinic in San Francisco, California, offering orthopaedic surgery and medical care, physical therapy and rehabilitation, and radiology imaging services. The Stone Clinic was founded by Kevin R. Stone, M.D., an orthopaedic surgeon, combining himself with a team of nurses, physical therapists, imaging specialists, and patient coordinators, in 1988 to focus on caring for injured athletes and people experiencing arthritis pain.
The Stone Clinic is founded on the goal of rehabilitating all patients to an operating level higher than before they were injured. The Stone Clinic specializes in sports medicine and injury treatment of knee, shoulder, and ankle joints. Stone has lectured and is recognized internationally as an authority on cartilage and meniscal growth, replacement, and repair. Stone and the Stone Clinic are known for the development of the paste grafting surgical technique in 1991, combined with meniscus replacement, which are biologic joint replacement procedures for the regeneration of the knee joint. Surgical procedures were subjected to rigorous outcomes analysis with the results reported in peer reviewed journals. The surgical techniques have been taught to surgeons in the US and worldwide, through lectures and videos.
Nursing students, medical students, residents, fellows, and other physicians from various institutions around the world, rotate through The Stone Clinic and mentor with Stone. The Stone Clinic hosts the annual Meniscus Transplantation Study Group Meeting as well as the annual Professional Women Athlete's Career Conference.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

U01 clavicle ac_sc_joints1
1.
2. Clavicle
“S”-shaped bone
Medial - sternoclavicular joint
Lateral - acromioclavicular joint and
coracoclavicular ligaments
Muscle attachments:
Medial: sternocleidomastoid
Lateral: Trapezius, pectoralis major
3. AC Joint
Diarthrodial joint between medial facet of acromion
and the lateral (distal) clavicle.
Contains intra-articular disk of variable size.
Thin capsule stabilized by ligaments on all sides:
AC ligaments control horizontal (anteroposterior )
displacement
Superior AC ligament most important
4. Distal Clavicle
Coracoclavicular ligaments
“Suspensory ligaments of the upper
extremity”
Two components:
Trapezoid
Conoid
Stronger than AC ligaments
Provide vertical stability to AC joint
5. Mechanism of Injury
Moderate or high-energy traumatic impacts to the
shoulder
1. Fall from height
2. Motor vehicle accident
3. Sports injury
4. Blow to the point of the shoulder
5. Rarely a direct injury to the clavicle
6. Physical Examination
Inspection
Evaluate deformity and/or
displacement
Beware of rare inferior or
posterior displacement of distal
or medial ends of clavicle
Compare to opposite side.
7. Physical Examination
Palpation
Evaluate pain
Look for instability with stress
11. Classification of
Clavicle Fractures
Group I : Middle third
Most common (80% of clavicle fractures)
Group II: Distal third
10-15% of clavicle injuries
Group III: Medial third
Least common (approx. 5%)
13. Nonoperative Treatment
“Standard of Care” for most clavicle fractures.
Continued questions about the need to wear a
specialized brace.
14. Simple Sling vs.
Figure-of-8 Bandage
Prospective randomized trial of 61 patients
Simple sling
Less discomfort
Functional and cosmetic results identical
Alignment of healed fractures unchanged from the
initial displacement in both groups
Andersen et al., Acta Orthop Scand 58: 71-4, 1987.
15. Nonoperative Treatment
It is difficult to reduce clavicle fractures by closed
means.
Most clavicle fractures unite rapidly despite
displacement
Significantly displaced mid-shaft and distal-third
injuries have a higher incidence of nonunion.
16. Nonoperative Treatment
There is new evidence that the outcome of
nonoperative management of displaced middle-third
clavicle fractures is not as good as traditionally
thought, with many patients having significant
functional problems.
17. Deficits following nonoperative treatment of
displaced midshaft clavicular fractures
A patient-based outcome questionnaire and muscle-
strength testing were used to evaluate 30 patients after
nonoperative care of a displaced midshaft fracture of
the clavicle.
At a minimum of twelve months (mean 55 mos),
outcomes were measured with the Constant shoulder
score and the DASH patient questionnaire. In addition,
shoulder muscle-strength testing was performed with
the Baltimore Therapeutic Equipment Work Simulator,
with the uninjured arm serving as a control.
McKee et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2006;88-A:35-40.
18. Deficits following nonoperative treatment of
displaced midshaft clavicular fractures
The strength of the injured shoulder was 81%
for maximum flexion, 75% for endurance of
flexion, 82% for maximum abduction, 67% for
endurance of abduction, 81% for maximum
external rotation, 82% for endurance of external
rotation, 85% for maximum internal rotation,
and 78% for endurance of internal rotation (p <
0.05 for all).
The mean Constant score was 71 points, and the
mean DASH score was 24.6 points, indicating
substantial residual disability.
McKee et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2006;88-A:35-40.
19. Displaced midshaft clavicle fractures can cause
significant, persistent disability, even if they heal
uneventfully.
20. Definite Indications for Surgical
Treatment of Clavicle Fractures
1) Open fractures
2) Associated neurovascular injury
22. Relative Indications for Acute
Treatment of Clavicle Fractures
4) Floating shoulder
5) Seizure disorder
6) Cosmetic deformity
7) Earlier return to work.
23.
24. Clavicular Displacement
< 5 mm shortening: acceptable results at 5 years (Nordqvist et
al, Acta Orthop Scand 1997;68:349-51.
> 20 mm shortening associated with increased risk of nonunion
and poor functional outcome at 3 years (Hill et al, JBJS
1997;79B: 537-9)
25. Plate Fixation
Traditional means of ORIF
Plate applied superiorly or inferiorly
Inferior plating associated with lower risk of hardware
prominence
Used for acute displaced fractures and nonunions.
26.
27. Intramedullary Fixation
Large threaded cannulated screws
Flexible elastic nails
K-wires
Associated with risk of migration
Useful when plate fixation contra-
indicated
Bad skin
Severe osteopenia
Fixation less secure
29. Risk Factors for the Development
of Clavicular Nonunions
Location of Fracture
(outer third)
Degree of Displacement
(marked displacement)
Primary Open Reduction
30. Principles for the Treatment of
Clavicular Nonunions
Restore length of clavicle
May need intercalary bone graft
Rigid internal fixation, usually with a plate
Iliac crest bone graft
Role of bone-graft substitutes not yet defined.
31. Clavicular Malunion
Symptoms of pain, fatigue, cosmetic deformity.
Initially treat with strengthening, especially of
scapulothoracic stabilizers.
Consider osteotomy, internal fixation in rare
cases in which nonoperative treatment fails.
Correction of malunion with thoracic outlet sx
32. Neurologic Sequelae
Occasionally, fracture fragments or abundant callus
can cause brachial plexus symptoms.
Treatment is reduction and fixation of the fracture, or
resection of callus with or without osteotomy and
fixation for malunions.
33.
34. Classification of Distal Clavicular
Fractures
(Group II Clavicle Fractures)
Type I-nondisplaced
Between the CC and AC
ligaments with ligament
still intact
From Nuber GW and Bowen MK, JAAOS, 5:11, 1997
35. Classification of Distal Clavicular
Fractures
Type II
Typically displaced secondary to a
fracture medial to the coracoclavicular
ligaments, keeping the distal fragment
reduced while allowing the medial
fragmetn to displace superiorly
Highest rate of nonunion (up to 30%)
Two Types
36. •A. Conoid and trapezoid
attached to distal
fragment
From Nuber GW and Bowen MK, JAAOS, 5:11, 1997
38. Classification of Distal Clavicular
Fractures
Type III:articular
fractures
From Nuber GW and Bowen MK, JAAOS, 5:11, 1997
39. Treatment of Distal-Third (Type II)
Clavicle Fractures
Nonoperative treatment
22 to 33% failed to unite
45 to 67% took more than three months to heal
Operative treatment
100% of fractures healed within 6 to 10 weeks after
surgery
40. Displaced Type II fractures of the distal clavicle are
often treated more aggressively because of the
increased risk of nonunion with nonoperative
treatment
41. Techniques for Acute Operative
Treatment of Distal Clavicle Fractures
Kirschner wires inserted into the distal
fragment
Dorsal plate fixation
CC screw fixation
Tension-band wire or suture
Transfer of coracoid process to the clavicle
Clavicular Hook Plate
42. For most techniques of clavicular fixation,
coracoclavicular fixation is also needed to prevent
redisplacement of the medial clavicle.
43. • The Hook Plate (Synthes USA, Paoli, PA)
was specifically designed to avoid this
problem of redisplacement.
44.
45. Hook Plate - Results
Recent series of distal clavicle fractuers treated with
the Hook Plate document high union rates of 88% -
100%. Complications are rare but potentially
significant, including new fracture about the implant,
rotator cuff tear, and frequent subacromial
impingement.
46. Indications for Late Surgery for
Distal Clavicle Fractures
Pain
Weakness
Deformity
47. Radiographic Evaluation of the
Acromioclavicular Joint
Proper exposure of the AC joint requires one-third
to one-half the x-ray penetration of routine
shoulder views
Initial Views:
Anteroposterior view
Other views:
Axillary: demonstrates anterior-posterior displacement
Stress views: not generally relevant for treatment
decisions.
48. Type I

50. Type III
AC ligaments and CC
ligaments all disrupted
AC joint dislocated and
the shoulder complex
displaced inferiorly
CC interspace greater
than the normal
shoulder(25-100%)
Deltoid and trapezius
muscles usually detached
from the distal clavicle
From Nuber GW and Bowen MK, JAAOS, 5:11, 1997
51. Type III Variants
“Pseudodislocation” through an intact
periosteal sleeve

gross disparity between
the clavicle and the
scapula (100-300%)

54. Type VI
AC joint dislocated and
clavicle displaced inferior
to the acromion or the
coracoid process
AC and CC ligaments
disrupted
Deltoid and trapezius
muscles detached from
the distal clavicle
From Nuber GW and Bowen MK, JAAOS, 5:11, 1997
55. Treatment Options for Types I - II
Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries
Nonoperative: Ice and protection until pain
subsides (7 to 10 days).
Return to sports as pain allows (1-2 weeks)
No apparent benefit to the use of specialized
braces.
56. Type II operative treatment
Generally reserved only for the patient with chronic
pain.
Treatment is resection of the distal clavicle and
reconstruction of the coracoclavicular ligaments.
57. Treatment Options for Type III-VI
Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries
Nonoperative treatment
Closed reduction and application of a sling and harness
to maintain reduction of the clavicle
Short-term sling and early range of motion
Operative treatment
Primary AC joint fixation
Primary CC ligament fixation
Excision of the distal clavicle
Dynamic muscle transfers
58. Type III Injuries: Need for acute surgical treatment
remains very controversial.
Most surgeons recommend conservative treatment
except in the throwing athlete or overhead worker.
Repair generally avoided in contact athletes because of
the risk of reinjury.
59. Indications for Acute Surgical
Treatment of Acromioclavicular
Injuries
Type III injuries in highly
active patients
Type IV, V, and VI injuries
60. Surgical Options for AC Joint
Instability
Coracoid process transfer to distal transfer (Dynamic
muscle transfer)

64.
65. The Anatomy of the Sternoclavicular Joint
Diarthrodial Joint
“Saddle shaped”
Poor congruence
Intra-articular disc
ligament. Divides SC joint
into two separate joint
spaces.
Costoclavicular ligament-
(rhomboid ligament) Short
and strong and consist of
an anterior and posterior
fasciculus
66. Interclavicular ligament- Connects the
superomedial aspects of each clavicle with the
capsular ligaments and the upper sternum
Capsular ligament- Covers the anterior and
posterior aspects of the joint and represents
thickenings of the joint capsule. The anterior
portion of the ligament is heavier and stronger
than the posterior portion.
67. Epiphysis of the Medial Clavicle
Medial Physis- Last of the ossification centers to
appear in the body and the last epiphysis to close.
Does not ossify until 18th to 20th year
Does not unite with the clavicle until the 23rd to 25th
year
68. Radiographic Techniques for
Assessing Sternoclavicular Injuries
40-degree cephalic tilt
view
CT scan- Best technique
for sternoclavicular joint
problems
From Wirth MA and Rockwood CA, JAAOS, 4:268, 1996
69. Injuries Associated with
Sternoclavicular Joint Dislocations
Mediastinal
Compression
Pneumothorax
Laceration of the
superior vena cava
Tracheal erosion
From Wirth MA and Rockwood CA, JAAOS, 4:268, 1996
70. Treatment of Anterior
Sternoclavicular Dislocations
Nonoperative treatment
Analgesics and immobilization
Functional outcome usually good
Closed reduction
Often not successful
Direct pressure over the medial end of
the clavicle may reduce the joint
71. Treatment of Posterior
Sternoclavicular Dislocations
Careful examination of the patient is extremely
important to rule out vascular compromise.
Consider CT to rule out mediastinal compression
Attempt closed reduction - it is often successful and
remains stable.
72. Closed Reduction Techniques
Abduction traction
Adduction traction
“Towel Clip” - anterior force applied to clavicle by
percutaneously applied towel clip
73. Operative Techniques
Resection arthroplasty
May result in instability of remaining
clavicle unless stabilization is done.
Suggest minimal resection of bone and
fixation of medial clavicle to first rib.
Sternoclavicular reconstruction with suture, tendon
graft.
