Abstract
Recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder is a fairly common disorder for which
numerous surgical procedures have been described. This paper reviews 22 patients treated
between 1970 and 1983 by a modified staple capsulorrhaphy. It describes the surgical
technique and demonstrates an instrument designed to hold and aid the insertion of
the staple.
There were no major complications in using this technique. All patients had some restriction
of external rotation after operation but no patient suffered a further dislocation
during a long-term follow-up of 6.4 years on average.
