Abstract
1. The history of the genesis of the Putti-Platt operation for habitual dislocation of the shoulder is outlined so far as it is known. 2. The operation is described and briefly commented upon. 3. Since there is both gleno-labrial detachment and defect in the humeral head successful treatment depends upon: i) a block to the exit of the humeral head in front and ii) limitation of external rotation movement.
