FIELD: medicine, traumatology, orthopedics. SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with treating patients, with luxations of acromial clavicular end, in particular. The method for forming osseous channel deals with drilling two osseous through channels with separate input openings on superior osseous surface. The second channel is drilled at an angle to the first one and its output opening is formed in output opening of the first channel. In this method one should apply a device that contains a rod with an arresting device for plunging depth, a plank with measuring sections being cross-sectional to the rod, a coupling with a fixing bolt and a tube. Tube's position is determined by the following formula: X = a + b, where X - the distance from plank's external surface up to crossing site of tube's superior surface and plank's inferior surface; a - fixed distance between inferior surfaces of an arresting device and a plank, b - the depth of the first channel. At first, one should measure the depth of the first drilled channel to add the known distance from inferior surface of an arresting device up to plank's inferior surface to the value obtained. The sum obtained is counted from rod's external surface by the scale of measuring sections on a plank, and at the level of this label one should fix the crossing of tube's superior edge with plank's inferior edge. Then the rod is introduced into input opening of the first channel up to arresting device's support into osseous surface, a drilling element is introduced into tube's cavity to drill the second channel according tube's direction. As a result, improved operative treatment, decreased osseous trauma and decreased number of complications are achieved due to providing the possibility for improved operation. EFFECT: higher efficiency of operation. 1 cl, 2 dwg _
