Radiography of the shoulder after Bristow repair.
A radiologic follow-up of 30 shoulders in 29 patients operated upon according to the Bristow procedure is presented. Four projections of the shoulder were found necessary for adequate radiographic evaluation of the surgical results, a.p., lateral, oblique lateral and modified axial views. The two latter projections are appropriate for evaluation of the bony transplant and its relation to the anterior glenoid rim. Radiographic findings relating to bony union of the transplant and to the clinical results are discussed.
