Abstract Objective] To explore the clinical results of arthroscopic subacromial decompression with keeping cora‐coacromial ligament for the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome .[Methods]A total of 30 patients with sub‐acromial impingement syndrome received clinical therapy from Jan .2010 to June 2013 .Surgical procedure was as follows:subacromial bursa was removed with electric‐planer ,and the leading edge of acromion was grinded by burr ,and cora‐coacromial ligation was kept during the operation ,and acromioclavicular joint was explored and osteophytes were resected , and patients with the indication of rotator cuff tear was repaired with anchors .Shoulder function of patients was assessed with UCLA(university of California at Los Angeles) score .[Results] The mean follow‐up time was 16 .8 months(7~25 months) .All complete follow‐up data were collected .The mean preoperative and postoperative UCLA score was (16 .15 ± 2 .13) and (31 .85 ± 2 .57) ,respectively .The excellent and good rate was 89 .1% .There was significant difference in the scores between before and after operation( t=36 .09 ,P<0 .01) .[Conclusion]Arthroscopic subacromial decompres‐sion with keeping the coracoacromial ligament is an effective method for the treatment of subacromial impingement syn‐drome .It has the advantages such as simple operation ,low cost ,less bleeding ,small trauma ,good shoulder stability and fast recovery .
