Distal Clavicle Excision (Resection) may be considered for patients with persistent AC joint pain caused by arthritis, degenerative changes, or other joint irritation. The procedure involves removing a small section of the end of the collarbone to create adequate space and prevent painful contact between the joint surfaces. It may be performed alone or alongside other shoulder procedures when clinically indicated. Postoperative rehabilitation helps progressively restore shoulder mobility, strength, and daily function.
