[Treatment of scapula alata with a new surgical technique]
1Clinica de ortopedie şi traumatologie, Universitatea de Medicină şi Farmacie Iaşi.
Abstract:
By analysing the various surgical procedures used in the management of scapula alata, the author describes a personal technique where scapula is fixed to the 7th rib with the shot palmar tendon. For the stabilisation of the scapula, its inferior angle introduced under the great dorsal is sutured with strong catgut, the needle entering from under the depth of muscle and emerging on its posterior aspect where catgut ends are knotted.
