Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical outcomes after Eden-Hybinette procedure for revision surgery in recurrent anterior shoulder instability in patients with epilepsy. We retrospectively evaluated eight such patients between 2015 and 2018. Four patients had failed Latarjet/Bristow procedure and two had failed arthroscopic Bankart procedure, while two had history of both the procedures. After medical control of epilepsy, Eden-Hybinette procedure was performed in all patients. WOSI score and Rowe shoulder score was recorded preoperatively and in subsequent post-operative follow-up. A paired t test was used to analyze and compare preoperative and postoperative outcomes and was considered significant if p value was < 0.05. The average follow-up was 30months (range 24-48months). There was no recurrence of shoulder instability. The mean WOSI score before surgery was 77.3 (range 70-83), which improved to 24.2 (range 19-30) at 24-month follow-up. The mean Rowe score before surgery was 11.3 (range 5-15), which improved to 81.8(range 65-90) at 24-month follow-up. The improvement in WOSI and Rowe score was found to be statistically significant [p value < 0.05]. We conclude that Eden-Hybinette is a useful revision procedure to manage recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation in patients with epilepsy. Optimum medical control of seizure is also an important factor in preventing recurrent shoulder instability.
