Abstract:
The clinical study on recurrent dislocation of the shoulder was performed on fourteen cases who were treated by Putti-Platt operation from July 1967 to November 1968. The cases studied were treated at the 17th Army Hospital in Kwang-ju and U.S. 121st Evacuation Hospital in Bu-pyung. Ages in initial dislocation were varied from 11 to 25 with an average of 18 years. Five cases of them were recurred over ten times prior to operation. On radiological findings, Hill-Sachs lesion has been revelaed in 57.1%. On pathological finding, Bankart lesion was seen in 78.5% and detachment of the glenoid labrum with capsular separation in 28.6%. No recurrence has been encountered in this s ries, and average rarige of abduction was gained upto 165 and external rotation 30°.
