The Boytchev procedure was performed in nineteen cases and seventeen of them were followed. In order to simplify the operative procedure, the conjoined tendon was transferred without moving the pectoralis minor. No recurrence occurred, although two patients experienced a feeling of subluxation early in the postoperative period. The limitation in range of motion was slight, except for two patients who had had significant preoperative limitation of external rotation. Six of the patients had temporary nerve complications.
