INTRODUCTION Anterior dislocation of the shoulder is commonly seen in accident and
emergency (A&E) and trauma clinics. In this article, we review the existing literature on the …

PURPOSE: Traumatic anterior instability of the shoulder is a common condition associated
with a high recurrence rate in young patients. The role of nonoperative versus operative …

Background: The arthroscopic Latarjet procedure combines the benefits of arthroscopic
surgery with the low rate of recurrent instability associated with the Latarjet procedure. Only …

A systematic search of the literature published between January 1985 and February 2006
identified 62 studies which reported the results of arthroscopic procedures for chronic …

Background: Both arthroscopic and open surgical repairs are utilized for the management of
anterior glenohumeral instability. To determine the evidence supporting the relative …

Background: Arthroscopic stabilization using suture anchors is widely used to restore
stability after anterior shoulder dislocations and is associated with low recurrence rates in …

Purpose of this study is to conduct a meta-analysis comparing the results of open and
arthroscopic Bankart repair using suture anchors in recurrent traumatic anterior shoulder …

Background: The literature comparing open and arthroscopic repair for glenohumeral
instability is conflicting. We performed a prospective, expertise-based, randomized clinical …

Purpose: We report the results of a new technique consisting of a combined arthroscopic
Bankart repair associated with a transfer of the coraco-biceps tendon to reinforce the …

Background Arthroscopic treatment of anterior shoulder dislocation has become possible
through improvements in instruments and techniques. Objective To prospectively evaluate …
