At NMC Chronic Care Specialized Hospital, Distal Clavicle Excision (resection) is performed using advanced shoulder surgery techniques and individualized treatment planning. Established in 2013, the CBAHI accredited hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia has 120 beds and provides comprehensive orthopedic and rehabilitation services.
Distal Clavicle Excision (Resection) may be recommended when degeneration or inflammation of the AC joint causes persistent localized shoulder pain, particularly with overhead or cross-body movements. During surgery, the surgeon removes a small amount of bone from the distal end of the clavicle, creating space within the joint and reducing painful bone-on-bone contact. The surrounding ligaments are preserved as much as possible to maintain shoulder stability. Physiotherapy after surgery helps restore range of motion and function.
