- Abstract
111 patients with fresh dislocation of shoulder joint were treated with modified Putti-Platt procedure. Of these, 17 had recurrent anterior dislocation. 13 patients were followed up on the average for 25 years. According to Rowe criteria, 10 patients (76.9%) showed excellent results, 2 (15.4%) good, and (7.7%) fair. No recurrence and restriction of external rotation were found. Clinical experience and fetal investigation on congenital factors of recurrent shoulder dislocation were described.
