Abstract
This chapter explores the use of distal tibia allograft (DTA) for addressing glenoid bone deficiencies in revision surgery for anterior glenohumeral instability. Traditional approaches have often overlooked glenoid bone loss, which can negatively impact functional outcomes of a shoulder instability repair. The DTA offers a promising solution, effectively reconstructing the glenoid vault while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues when performed arthroscopically. This approach not only simplifies the surgical technique but also enhances stability when combined with soft tissue procedures. By allowing for personalized graft sizing, the DTA presents an adaptable option for various patients facing revision surgeries for anterior instability, making it a leading consideration in modern orthopaedic practice for the management of shoulder instability repair.
