[Conservative therapy of shoulder dislocation].

There is no undivided agreement in how long a shoulder ought to be fixed after a luxation. Having made a distinction between the terms of habitual and posttraumatic recidivous luxation of the shoulder, the results of a retrospective analysis of 118 luxations of the shoulder are shown, with 75 outpatients after a primary luxation. In most cases the fixation in the Desault-dressing was maintained for three to four days and was followed by early-functional physiotherapeutical after-treatment. Ten patients = 14.9% developed posttraumatic recidivous, and eight patients = 10.4% habitual luxations. In comparison with other analyses, these results show that with a short time of fixation of three to four days there is no higher tendency to reluxation than with a longer time of fixation. If a habitual or a posttraumatic recidivous luxation occurs, operative treatment is required.

The collagen fibers of the anteroinferior capsulolabrum have multiaxial orientation to resist shoulder dislocation.

Instability of the glenohumeral joint can be associated with anteroinferior capsulolabral rupture. To understand its static stabilizing effect better, the collagen fiber orientation of the inferior glenohumeral ligament (IGHL), a component of the anteroinferior capsulolabrum, was studied with a small angle light scattering technique. Three rectangular samples (approximately 11 x 6 mm) were excised from the axillary pouch, one from the anterior band (AB) of the IGHL and one control sample from the long head of the biceps tendon of 7 cadaveric shoulders. The small angle light scattering technique scans the tissue with a helium-neon laser beam and quantifies the fiber alignment based on the resultant scattering pattern. The fiber orientation was quantified by an orientation index, defined as the angle within which 50% of the fibers lie. The axillary pouch had a random orientation, whereas the AB-IGHL was random with some regions of localized alignment. The percentage of tissue with an orientation index range of 25 degrees to 45 degrees was 23.2% +/- 8.5% and 29.0% +/- 13.1% for the axillary pouch and the AB-IGHL, respectively, whereas that for the long head of the biceps tendon was 61.6% +/- 15.2%. This suggests that the collagen fibers in the IGHL are not highly aligned and the anteroinferior capsulolabrum can be modeled as a continuous sheet. Moreover, a biomechanical evaluation of the anteroinferior capsulolabrum that investigates the possibility that the mechanical properties may be directionally independent should be conducted.

Radiographic views in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Comparison of six methods for identification of typical lesions.

In a prospective study of 27 shoulders with recurrent anterior dislocation, we compared six radiographic views for demonstration of the Hill-Sachs defect and the Bankart lesion. The Hill-Sachs defect was most often identified by the Stryker notch view (25/27); it was best visualized and most easily recognized on the 45 degrees craniocaudal view (22/27). This view also had the highest diagnostic yield for demonstrating the Bankart lesion.

[CT diagnosis of soft tissue injuries in habitual shoulder dislocation].

Computed tomography can demonstrate most glenohumeral structures accurately. If the articular cavitz is filled with air, CT ist the method of choice in preoperative diagnosis to determine the capsular extension and to assess the destruction of the glenoid bone rim and glenoid labrum.

[The diagnostic value of double contrast CT in shoulder dislocation].

The article reports of the indication, technique and results of the shoulder joint double-contrast-computertomography. It discuss its diagnostic value in comparison to other examining methods. As alternative preoperative diagnostic procedures only arthroscopy, arthrography and MRI can be considered. Also discussed are the therapeutic consequences resulting from the nature of the pathological lesions (rupture of the limbus glenoidalis, Hill-Sachs-defect, reversed Hill-Sachs-defect). Especially for the first traumatic dislocations of the shoulder joint, we consider this investigational method an eminent enlargement of the diagnostic spectrum. Therefore, we are generous with its indication, attempting to prevent reluxations by primary diagnostic and therapeutic procedure.

[Functional outcome of Eden-Hybinette-Lange operation in post-traumatic recurrent shoulder dislocation].

OBJECTIVE: Post-traumatic recurrent dislocation is a major problem in the operative treatment of shoulder dysfunction in young athletes. This prospectively designed study evaluates the long-term results of a modified Eden-Hybinette procedure in young male athletes. The criteria were: capacity in sports, functional limit, and persistent pain. Genuine disorders of the glenoid or muscular imbalance of the shoulder joint were criteria for exclusion. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From 1982 to 1990, 143 patients underwent surgery. Seventy percent were reevaluated within a minimum period of 18 months after the operation. The functional results were calculated using the ROWE score as well as a visual analog scale (VAS). X-rays were done after the patient had given informed consent. RESULTS: VAS and ROWE score showed excellent/good results in 61%, fair results in 18%, and poor results in 21% of the documented cases. The rate of arthrosis was 25%. Redislocation occurred in 7%, mainly without any relevant trauma. The X-rays showed complete resorption of the bone graft in 30% of the cases. Best functional results and no redislocation were found in the patients who underwent surgery with fewer than 3 dislocations compared to those with more than 4 dislocation episodes. CONCLUSIONS: In cases of post-traumatic recurrent dislocation of the shoulder in young athletes, the modified Eden-Hybinette procedure is a good method of reestablishing sufficient stability of the shoulder. The operation should be performed prior to the 3rd dislocation episode. Four or more dislocation episodes show an increased tendency to redislocate and poor functional results.
