Abstract: | Acromioclavicular (AC) joint symptoms are common in athletes. In particular, overhead athletes place especially high demands on their shoulders. Despite this, these individuals infrequently have isolated AC joint pathology. Understanding the common pathology and associated injuries is important for a safe and quick return to competition. |
