title: [The value of arthroscopic labrum stapling in anterior shoulder dislocation].
abstract: Shoulder luxations are common injuries in relation to sports. Isokinetic strength was evaluated in 24 patients on the average 1 year after performing arthroscopic stabilisation of an anterior shoulder luxation. Using the Merac (Universal Gym Equip., Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA), test data were gathered on both shoulders in flexion-extension, abduction-adduction and in the supine 90 degrees abducted test position in external-internal rotation. Tests were performed at 60, 180 and 500 deg/sec. Means and standard deviations for peak torque, total work, peak torque to body weight ratios and agonist/antagonist ratios are presented. Our one year follow-up showed, that 82% of all patients were free from complaints and had almost the same data as on the non-operated shoulders. Arthroscopic stabilisation of anterior shoulder luxations in combination with intensive physiotherapy gave excellent results in most cases.
