The values of synovial fluid viscosity and intra-articu- lar pressure were studied in patients with habitual dislocation of the shoulder in the diseased and intact humeral articulations at rest and after exercise, prior to and following surgery. The values of synovial fluid and intraarticular pressure were found to reflect the persistence of morphological and functional impairments of the humeral articulation. The values may serve as criteria for the severity of its disease and the degree of a patients rehabilitation.
