BACKGROUND: Currently, recurrent anterior shoulder instability in patients with a Hill-Sachs lesion managed using the Bankart repair showed higher recurrent instability compared with the Latarjet technique. Addition of posterior capsulodesis with infraspinatus remplissage to the Bankart repair, known as Bankart with remplissage (BR), increases shoulder stability in patients with a Hill-Sachs lesion. BR can potentially match the low recurrence rates of the Latarjet procedure while being less invasive...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the results of arthroscopic isolated Bankart repair (B) with Bankart repair plus Remplissage (B + R) procedure in contact overhead athletes with on-track anterior shoulder instability. METHODS: A total of 64 athletes playing basketball, volleyball and handball in elite professional level who underwent arthroscopic isolated Bankart repair (34 patients) or Bankart repair plus Remplissage procedure (30 patients) with the diagnosis of recurrent anterior shoulder instability between 2017 and 2020, were retrospectively reviewed...

A Hill-Sachs lesion is a bony defect in the head of the humerus due to recurrent dislocation, which results in friction between the humeral head and the glenoid fossa. This recurrent incident of dislocation that occurs in the anterior direction eventually leads to a Bankart lesion (a defect in the glenoid rim). A 21-year-old male, a recreational football player, reported recurrent shoulder dislocation, complaining of pain and difficulty doing certain activities. He had hypermobility of the shoulder joint during joint play assessment...

INTRODUCTION: in patients with anterior glenohumeral (GH) instability together with an off-track or engaging Hill-Sachs (HS) defect, Bankart-remplissage (B-R) surgery reduces the recurrence rate when compared to Bankart (B) surgery alone. There is controversy regarding whether the recurrence rate also decreases in patients with on-track or non-engaging Hill-Sachs defects. OBJECTIVE: to compare the recurrence rate and clinical evolution of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability with 'on-track' Hill-Sachs defect treated with either B or B-R surgery...

BACKGROUND: Glenoid concavity compression by rotator cuff muscle contraction is one of the key mechanisms in the stability of the glenohumeral joint. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of glenoid concavity, as represented by the bony shoulder stability ratio (BSSR) and other factors, including glenoid bone defect size, on the surgical failure of arthroscopic stabilization procedures for recurrent anterior shoulder instability...

This classic discusses the original publication by Burkhart and DeBeer "Traumatic Glenohumeral Bone Defects and Their Relationship to Failure of Arthroscopic Bankart Repair" published in 2000 in Arthroscopy. At that time, the authors sought to understand the reasons behind the failure of arthroscopic soft tissue repair. Based on their findings, the authors introduced the concept of the inverted pear glenoid and engaging Hill-Sachs lesion which is now part of the orthopaedic lexicon. The importance of bony pathologic changes in anterior glenohumeral instability has become so apparent, that it now forms the basis of clinical understanding and underpins treatment algorithms...

BACKGROUND: The popularity of team handball is increasing with over 10 million children playing this overhead, throwing and collision sport with highest demands on the shoulder joint. Due to the risk for recurrent instability, the Latarjet-Patte (LP) procedure has been recommended to treat young competitive players. This is the first LP outcome study in professional handball. METHODS: We included 20 shoulders retrospectively (18 players/17 males/mean age 22.9 years, range 17-35 years; minimum/mean follow-up: 2/6...

Hill-Sachs lesions are a challenging clinical problem in the context of anterior shoulder instability. Historically, unless very large, these lesions were thought to be less significant than glenoid defects. Recently, more importance has been placed on whether a Hill-Sachs lesion is on-track or offtrack, with off-track lesions predisposing patients to higher risk of postoperative recurrent instability. Given the high risk for recurrent shoulder instability in patients with Hill-Sachs lesions that are off-track, augmentation procedures, such as the remplissage procedure, are often indicated alongside a Bankart repair...

BACKGROUND: Anterior shoulder instability is a common clinical problem; however, conflicting evidence exists regarding optimal treatment algorithms. We perform a comparative analysis of stabilization techniques used for recurrent anterior shoulder instability to identify which is associated with the lowest rate of recurrent instability. We additionally explore how glenoid bone loss and osseus lesions affect recurrence rates. METHODS: PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched for clinical studies comparing surgical techniques for anterior shoulder instability...

Posterior shoulder instability (PSI) accounts for 2% to 10% of all shoulder instability, with recurrent posterior subluxation being the most common type. One of the most important risk factors is the presence of an anterior humeral notch (so-called reverse Hill-Sachs lesion), and the most common lesion in PSI is a posterior labral lesion. When conservative treatment fails, surgery is recommended to provide long-term stability, manage pain, and enable a return to previous activity levels. Most posterior labral tears are treated by an arthroscopic posterior Bankart procedure...

BACKGROUND: The primary aim of this study was to investigate bone loss in the glenoid with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in posterior shoulder instability with only a labral tear. METHODS: A total of 76 patients operated on due to posterior and anteroposterior shoulder instability only with a labral tear between 2006 and 2019 (n=40, n=36; respectively) were included in this study. The instability type, a presence of an additional SLAP lesion, the number of dislocations, and the MRI-based measurements (the glenoid diameter and the bone defect size in the glenoid, the Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL), and the reverse Hill-Sachs lesion (rHSL) length, the angle and the arc length of HSL and rHSL, the humerus head diameter and its area) were analyzed...

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of CT-like images based on a 3D T1-weighted spoiled gradient-echo sequence (T1 GRE), an ultra-short echo time sequence (UTE), and a 3D T1-weighted spoiled multi-echo gradient-echo sequence (FRACTURE) with conventional CT in patients with suspected osseous shoulder pathologies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with suspected traumatic dislocation of the shoulder (n = 46, mean age 40 ± 14.5 years, 19 women) were prospectively recruited and received 3-T MR imaging including 3D T1 GRE, UTE, and 3D FRACTURE sequences...

Background Arthroscopic repair of glenohumeral instability is becoming an increasingly common procedure. These repairs can be undertaken using knot-tying and knotless suture anchors; there is currently no clear consensus in the literature about what type of repair is most cost-effective and provides superior outcomes. The purpose of this study is to examine postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing arthroscopic anteroinferior labral repair (AALR) with either knot-tying or knotless anchors. Methods A single institution retrospective observational cohort study of 122 patients undergoing AALR from January 2014 to June 2021 was conducted...

Management of shoulder dislocation can be challenging especially when glenoid bone fracture is involved. Bony Bankart lesion can be managed either through an open surgery or, of late, using arthroscopic technique. Arthroscopic bony Bankart repair is technically difficult, requiring specialized instruments to penetrate the bone fragment within the detached labrum. This case report describes an alternative way of doing an arthroscopic reattachment of an acute bony Bankart lesion using traction sutures, an accessory anteromedial portal and utilization of knotless anchors...

INTRODUCTION: Post-arthroscopic Bankart repair failure/re-dislocation rates are influenced by several risk factors, including anatomic defects. There is limited evidence on the role of anatomic defects, especially for Hill-Sachs size in on-track lesions. This study aimed to assess glenoid bone loss, Hill-Sachs lesion and labral tear size and evaluate their contribution to post-operative instability after a primary repair. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Across 169 patients with on-track Bankart lesions who underwent primary arthroscopic Bankart repair from 2010 to 2015, this study matched 14 failure with 14 non-failure cases based on age/gender...

PURPOSE: The extent of glenohumeral bone loss seen in anterior shoulder dislocations plays a major role in guiding surgical management of these patients. The need for accurate and reliable preoperative assessment of bone loss on imaging studies is therefore of paramount importance to orthopedic surgeons. This article will focus on the tools that are available to clinicians for quantifying glenoid bone loss with a focus on emerging trends and research in order to describe current practices...

Anterior glenohumeral instability is the most frequent type of shoulder instability. This is often associated with labral and osseous lesions leading to recurrent instability. A detailed medical history, a physical examination and targeted diagnostic imaging are necessary to assess possible pathological soft tissue alterations as well as bony lesions of the humeral head and the glenoid bone. Early surgical treatment has been shown to reduce the risk of recurrence, especially in young active athletes, and can avoid secondary damage...

Chronic traumatic anterior shoulder instability can be defined as recurrent trauma-associated shoulder instability requiring the assessment of three anatomic lesions: a capsuloligamentous and/or labral lesion; anterior glenoid bone loss and a Hill-Sachs lesion. Surgical treatment is generally indicated. It remains controversial how risk factors should be evaluated to decide between a soft-tissue, free bone-block or Latarjet-type procedure. Patient risk factors for recurrence are age; hyperlaxity; competitive, contact and overhead sports...

Traumatic anterior shoulder dislocations are estimated to occur in approximately 2% of the population, frequently with concomitant anterior-inferior labral tears and associated Hill-Sachs lesions of the humeral head. So-called bipolar (or engaging) lesions with attritional bone loss may be exacerbated by recurrent instability, in terms of both prevalence and severity. The glenoid track concept and distance to dislocation have offered context for evaluating bipolar lesions, and increasingly, options for bone block reconstruction are considered for definitive treatment...

BACKGROUND: Traumatic anterior shoulder instability is common in the adolescent athlete, and when it is untreated, the recurrence rate is high. Atypical lesions-such as anterior glenoid periosteal sleeve, humeral glenohumeral ligament, and insertional tendon avulsions-may occur within this population, and accurate diagnosis and appropriate lesion management are key to treatment success. PURPOSE: To evaluate the age, skeletal immaturity, bone loss, and uncommon soft tissue lesions as correlates of posttraumatic anterior shoulder instability lesion patterns in an adolescent population...
