title: [Arthropneumotomography in recurrent dislocations and subluxations of the shoulder. Methods, results, and indications in 45 cases (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors describe the results of arthropneumotomography in 45 patients with recurrent dislocations or subluxations of the shoulder. The method used is given in detail and the need for excellent quality glenoid profile sections, as described by Bernageau, is emphasized. The results are analyzed for bone lesions, capsuloligamentary lesions, and intra-articular foreign bodies. The two latter conditions are specifically demonstrated by arthropneumotomography. These results are then described radiological and surgical correlations, and the indications defined. Arthropneumotomography is therefore of value when a decision is to be taken as to the need for operation.
