Our two cases had so-called weight-bearing shoulder associated with supero-anterior instability of the glenohumeral joint and a tear of rotator cuff. One patient walked with the aid of a crutch and the other, who suffered from paraplegia, used a wheel-chair.
The operative findings in these cases showed the torn supraspinatus and subscapularis of the rotator cuff, and the dislocated or subluxated humeral head from these ruptures. We performed the surgical treatment of repair of the torn cuff, anterior acromioplasty and fascial patch method to reinforce the weakened anterior capsular wall. However the postoperative results of these cases were considered to be fair.
