BANKART'S OPERATION FOR RECURRENT DISLOCATION OF THE SHOULDER



Download PDF

Abstract

1. Fifty cases of recurrent dislocation of the shoulder are reported, operated upon by Bankart and his colleagues from 1925 to 1954.

2. This is the first detailed survey of his patients, some of whom we were unable to trace.

3. It has been confirmed that the operation is successful, and that a full range of movement can be regained after operation, though not in every case.

4. Two cases treated unsuccessfully are described and discussed.
