[Immobilization of the limb after surgical treatment of habitual shoulder dislocation]

The authors, on the basis of 20-years experience of treatment of patients with habitual dislocations of the shoulder by the method of tenosuspension, analyse the causes of postoperative recurrencies with the aid of biomechanical, electrophysiologic and roentgenologic methods. There is suggested an expediency of limb immobilization in the post-operative period by means of Dezault's bandage.
