Six patients with dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint are presented. Their main complaints were chronic recurrent spontaneous dislocation and local tenderness and discomfort during normal use of the shoulder. Two patients were treated according to Brown's modified procedure while four patients were operated with Burrow's technique. Ten weeks immobilization postoperatively is recommended to obtain a satisfactory result.Downloads
