Abstract :

Purpose: To study functional advantages of Modified Boytchev procedure in recurrent anterior dislocation of

shoulder
Materials: Modified Boytchev procedure was performed on 6 patients in between 2013-2015. None of the patients had previous shoulder surgery 5 patients were males and 1 was female. The right shoulder was affected in 5 and the remaining 1 was left. All the patients are manual
labours. Outcome was evaluated using the Burk head and Rockwood criteria.
Results: The mean follow-up period was 18 months. Outcome was excellent in4 patients (66.6%), good in one (16%),and fair in one(16%). None
had poor outcome. No patient had fragmentation of coracoid process.
Conclusion: The modified Boytchev procedure is a viable and simple treatment for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. This is important
