title: Bankart-Delitala surgery in the treatment of recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder.
abstract: The study analyzes the results obtained when Bankart-Delitala surgery was used to treat recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. A group of 30 patients were submitted to clinical and functional follow-up based on the Rowe system; 15 of the patients also underwent isokinetic testing. The data obtained were interpreted based on the Rowe system, but also analytically and statistically. The authors conclude that Bankart-Delitala surgery constitutes an effective surgical option in the treatment of recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder.
