The shoulders were dissected sequentially starting with the AC ligament (stage 1), then additional sectioning of the partial coracoclavicular (CC) ligament with either the trapezoid ligament cut first (stage 2A) or the conoid ligament cut first (stage 2B), and finally complete sectioning of the CC ligament (stage 3). Radiography was performed after each stage to evaluate the degree of displacement of the anterior border of the acromion relative to the anterior border of the clavicle. Paired t tests were used to compare the degree of displacement at each stage to that of the shoulder before cutting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Leaning at an angle of 30\u00b0 provided better visualization of the AC joint in the \u201cChiang Mai lean forward\u201d view. Compared with the intact condition, complete isolated cutting of the AC ligament produced 5.21 mm of horizontal displacement of the AC joint ( P &lt; .0001), complete tearing of the AC ligament and partial cutting of the CC ligament resulted in a displacement of &lt;12 mm (7.91 mm at stage 2A [ P = .0003] and 8.10 mm at stage 2B [ P = .0013]), and complete tearing of both the AC and the CC ligaments resulted in a displacement of 26.37 mm ( P &lt; .0001).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n
