We present a new technique of arthroscopic-assisted AC-hook plate fixation for acromioclavicular joint dislocation with all the advantages of minimally invasive surgery and the possibility to treat concomitant pathologies. ⋯ In conclusion, arthroscopic-assisted reconstruction of acromioclavicular joint separation is feasible and may provide patients with all the benefits of AC-hook fixation with decreased risks related to open surgery. The described technique is recommended for all surgeons familiar with arthroscopic surgery.
