A Major Complication of the Modified Bristow Procedure for Recurrent Dislocation of the Shoulder

A CASE REPORT

TYRONE ARTZ M.D.1 and JAMES M. HUFFER M.D.1

1 From the Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, University Hospitals, University of Wisconsin, Madison

A case has been presented in which a modified Bristow operation was used to correct the problem of recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. Loosening and displacement of the bone screw caused a false aneurysm of the axillary artery with subsequent compression of the brachial plexus cords and paralysis of an upper extremity. If a bone screw is used in this region, its removal is recommended after it has served its purpose.
