Arthroscopic Subscapularis Augmentation With Xenograft Glenoid Bone Block in Patients With Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical and radiographic outcomes at 2 years for patients who underwent an arthroscopic xenograft bone block procedure plus ASA for recurrent anteroinferior gleno-humeral instability.

Methods

This retrospective study was conducted on patients affected by chronic anteroinferior shoulder instability. The inclusion criteria were as follows: patients must be aged 18 years or older; have recurrent anteroinferior shoulder instability, a glenoid defect >10%, assessment by the Pico area measurement system, anterior capsular insufficiency, and an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion. The exclusion criteria were as follows: multidirectional instability, glenoid bone defect <10%, arthritis, and minimum follow-up less than 24 months.
