Radiographic views in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Comparison


of six methods for identification of typical lesions. Rozing PM. de Bakker HM. Obermann WR. Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica. [JC:1go] 57(4):328-30, 1986 Aug. In a prospective study of 27 shoulders with recurrent anterior dislocation, we compared six radiographic views for demonstration of the Hill-Sachs defect and the Bankart lesion. The Hill-Sachs defect was most often identified by the Stryker notch view (25/27); it was best visualized and most easily recognized on the 45 degrees craniocaudal view (22/27). This view also had the highest diagnostic yield for demonstrating the Bankart lesion.
