Electromyographic validation study of rotator cuff in recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder treated with modified Boytchev procedure

Modified Boytchev is one of good operative procedure for recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder in terms of recurrence and loss of motion of shoulder by rerouting the conjoined tendon deep to subscapularis. To know the possible mechanism of this procedure, electromyographic study showed the sign...

Summary:Modified Boytchev is one of good operative procedure for recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder in terms of recurrence and loss of motion of shoulder by rerouting the conjoined tendon deep to subscapularis. To know the possible mechanism of this procedure, electromyographic study showed the significantly greater recruitment pattern in subscapularis as compared to pre-operative subscapularis electromyographic pattern and other rotator cuff muscles.
