Abstract

The optimal treatment for recurrent glenohumeral instability is a subject under debate. The recently described arthroscopic technique for dynamic anterior stabilization (DAS) fills the treatment indication gap between reconstructive bony procedures and soft tissue stabilization. However, indications for DAS are considered limited or not appropriate for patients with recurrent shoulder dislocations caused by severe bone defects. In this Technical Note, we present a modified all-arthroscopic DAS technique with added infraspinatus and posterior capsule remplissage to correct the extra-articular Hill-Sachs defect in a patient with recurrent dislocations and off-track bony lesions. The patient requested an alternative treatment option, other than the complication-prone Latarjet procedure.
