know anything about A/C joint reconstruction - specifically modified weaver dunn reconstruction..? please!!!? the modified weaver dunn procedure, as described by rockwood (c. '96) and others over the years seems to be the only solution to type 3 ACJ failure where physio alone has not yielded satisfactory results. (or is it...? if there is any alternative, i'd be interested to know!)  i understand there have been many variations, including transfer of the coraco-acromial ligament, and reinforcement with permanant sutures. i also understand it is usual to excise the clavicle to prevent bony abuttment with the acromion, yet recent research shows that this resection of the clavicle can lead to a lateral plane instability in the shoulder.  please anyone who knows anything about this - tell me what you know! i have read a few things (from galileo's  original thoughts to more recent medical papers... tho in no way do i claim a comprehensive knowledge :) but i'm a physicist not a orthopaedic specialist! please any info on the injury/op/rehabilitation to sports (esp snowboarding :) 
big thanks

Summarized question: Where can I find information on A/C joint reconstruction and modified weaver dunn reconstruction?
