centimetres in length)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Impinging outgrowths of the bone and approximately 5 millimetres of the clavicle are removed with a small trephine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In addition to this procedure, the inflammed bursae below the acromion process are removed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Summarized: the distance between acromion process and collar bone is widened, resulting in the afflicted surfaces of the joint no longer rubbing against each other and therefore removing the cause of pain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"
