[Shoulder dislocation and periarthrosis humeroscapularis].

1232 injuries involving shoulder luxations in 1984 were investigated on the basis of the insurance dossier. 1/3 of the injured persons have sequelae: 10.5% habitual tendency to luxation, 9% peritendinitis, 2% omarthritis and 2% a shoulder instability. 1/5 in each case still experience pain and restricted movement. The 108 cases where peritendinitis has occurred following shoulder luxations are shown divided up according to various symptoms. Peritendinitis ankylosis or frozen shoulder represents the major share in almost half of the cases. Various characteristics, complications and risk factors for the possibility of contracting peritendinitis following shoulder luxation are being worked out. In conclusion, the insurance-relevant parameters for peritendinitis after shoulder luxation are shown: in cases with peritendinitis, integrity compensation was awarded 12 times more frequently than in cases without peritendinitis; in the case of shoulder luxation with peritendinitis, the entire insurance benefits were 10 times higher than in cases without peritendinitis.
