[The value of pneumo-arthro-CT in diagnosis after traumatic shoulder dislocation].

Traumatic subluxation of the shoulder in young patients may result in reluxation after further injury. 18 patients with traumatic subluxation and 22 patients with recurrent subluxation of the shoulder (after primary trauma) were examined by arthroscopy and pneumo-arthro-CT. This minimally invasive procedure showed high accuracy in the diagnosis of the typical glenoid margin and humoral head abnormalities. Nevertheless, arthroscopy cannot be abandoned for planning suitable operative treatment.
