Microfracture in Linear, Isolated, Narrow, Engaging Hill-Sachs Lesion.

ABSTRACT: Treatment of Hill-Sachs lesions is still controversial despite the frequent incidence in patients with recurrent shoulder dislocation. We report the use of arthroscopic microfracture for the treatment of recurrent shoulder dislocation with a linear, isolated, narrow, engaging Hill-Sachs lesion. Arthroscopic microfracture can be an alternative treatment option to obtain healing of defects and avoid external rotation limitation in young, active patients with recurrent dislocation with linear, isolated, narrow, engaging lesions.
