Abstract

Shoulder dislocation is a frequent pathology with a high level of recurrences especially in young patients. One week immobilization in a Dessault dressing is sufficient if it is followed by free mobilization avoiding external rotation and abduction. A 6 weeks rehabilitation program seems to prevent recurrences.
