Abstract
Glenohumeral dislocation is a common entity and represents more than 50% of all joint dislocations with anterior dislocation being most common with overall incidence of 2%strategies
Highlights
Glenohumeral dislocation is a common entity and represents more than 50% of all joint dislocations with anterior dislocation being most common with overall incidence of 2% [1]
The instability shoulder index score (ISIS) was used as predictive tool for arthroscopic treatment while the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) and the Walch-Duplay scores were used as functional outcome measures
Fifty-four patients were studied with an average age of 25.0 +/- 5.4 years and M: F of 8: 1. All were posttraumatic with a mean frequency of dislocation of 5.2 +/- 3.0 per week before surgery
Summary
Glenohumeral dislocation is a common entity and represents more than 50% of all joint dislocations with anterior dislocation being most common with overall incidence of 2% [1]. Recurrent dislocation of the shoulder is the leading complication of anterior glenohumeral dislocation, and it accounts for an average of 70-90% recurrence rate in patients aged 20 to 40 years [1]. Recurrent instability rates with this type of procedure averaged as low as 7% Despite these excellent results, there has been growing interest in the arthroscopic management of anterior glenohumeral instability because of the advantages like less morbidity, shorter time of surgery, improved range of motion, improved cosmesis, Copyright © All rights are reserved by Ibrahim Abolaji Alabi. Recurrent dislocation of the shoulder is the leading complication of traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation. It occurs commonly in young adult males. Arthroscopic trans glenoid suture capsulorrhaphy is an effective alternative for Correcting the pathology of anterior and anteroinferior shoulder instability
