[Limbus-plasty in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation].
We are reporting the results of labrum reconstruction following recurrent dislocations of the shoulder. From 1985 to 1988 35 patients (27 male/eight female) aged 28.4 years on the average (20 to 45 years old) had surgical treatment. 33 of these 35 came in for a follow-up about 40 months later (28 to 60 months). So far, only one patient suffered a re-dislocation from major trauma. In that case, therapy was continued on a conservative basis and the patient has been free of complaints and re-dislocation for three years. No one of the remaining 32 patients had another dislocation. Shoulder mobility is normal in 29 patients. One patient's abduction is impaired by 10 degrees and one has a 10 degrees to 15 degrees impairment of outward rotation. 30 patients have no complaints whatever. 32 patients consider the outcome satisfactory and only one does not. 30 of 33 patients say their dexterity in sports is the same as prior to the accident and only three feel slightly impaired during competitive sports.
