J. K. Oyston

1 . A case of posterior dislocation of the shoulder treated by open reduction and obliteration of the defect in the head of the humerus by implantation of the subscapularis tendon is reported.

2. It is suggested that this method is indicated in cases in which there is a deep V-shaped depression on the anterior aspect of the humeral head.
