how can you tell if a claviectomy is done as well as acromioplasty?

I'd ask the surgeon what she did...
-Acromioplasty - Arthroscopic removal of bone from the acromion & partial
resection of the coracoacromial ligament
-Distal Clavicectomy: Arthroscopic removal of the end of the clavicle. The
superior AC ligament remains intact so that the joint remains stable
