title: [Ultrasonic diagnosis of tendon and ligament injuries in anterior dislocations of the shoulder joint].
abstract: The usefulness of ultrasonography in diagnosis of frequently occurring traumatic injuries of the ligament-tendon apparatus of the shoulder has been evaluated and compared with intra-operative nd contrast roentgenography examinations. An analysis of 102 cases, including 85 fresh anterior dislocation, 17 habitual anterior dislocation, has been made. 306 ultrasonographic examinations have been performed. A frequent coexistence of injuries of the tendon of the long head of the biceps muscle with an injury of the rotators cuff, mainly the supraspinous muscle, has been pointed out. The purposefulness of routine ultrasonographic examinations in injuries of the shoulder, especially acute, and full consideration of indications of early surgical treatment have been stressed.
