โฆ Synopsis
A retrospective review was carried out on 44 patients with recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder who were treated by the Magnuson-Stack operation. The average follow up was 12 years. There were 2 recurrences. Twenty-five patients had no symptoms, 3 had pain, 6 complained of subjective instability, and 8 had more than 10 ยฐ restriction of external rotation. No patients had signs of osteoarthritis in the joint. The satisfactory results and the ease of the operation are reasons for advocating this procedure.
R~sum& Revue rdtrospective de 44 patients traitds par la technique de Magnuson-Stack pour luxation rdcidivante antdrieure de l'dpaule. L'dge moyen des malades au moment de l'opdration dtait de 28 ans (15-60), le recul moyen des observations est de 12 ans (6-17). Dans tousles cas on a constatd une limitation moyenne de la rotation externe, de 12 ยฐ ( 5 -5 0 ) avec l'dpaule en adduction et de 14 ยฐ ( 5 -5 0 ) avec l'dpaule en abduction de 90 ยฐ. On n'a jamais retrouvd de signes radiologiques de ddtdrioration articulaire au dernier examen. Les complications les plus importantes ont dtd deux luxations durant la pdriode post-opdratoire (4.5%), respectivement aux 5kme et 8Ome mois. Chez les 42 autres malades le rdsultat peut 6tre considdrd comme satisfaisant: 25 sont asymptomatiques, 3 prdsentent une ldgkre douleur,, 6 une certaine sensation d'instabilitd et 8 ont une limitation de la rotation externe supdrieure gt 10 ยฐ.
