The procedure is done to replace the coracoclavicular ligaments with the coracoacromial ligament. [2] There is currently no "gold standard" surgery to repair acromioclavicular separations, and many surgeries have been created. However, this is one of the more common fixes. The original surgery is described as follows.
The coracoclavicular ligament connects the clavicle to the coracoid process of the scapula.

The clavipectoral fascia (costocoracoid membrane; coracoclavicular fascia) is a strong fascia situated under cover of the clavicular portion of the pectoralis major.. It occupies the interval between the pectoralis minor and subclavius, and protects the axillary vein and artery, and axillary nerve.
