RESUMEN
PURPOSE: The addition of the remplissage procedure to an arthroscopic Bankart procedure has been shown to improve clinical outcomes, yet at the expense of potentially decreasing shoulder range of motion. The purpose of this study was to assess recurrent instability, range of motion, functional outcomes and rates of return to sport outcomes in patients undergoing an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair compared to those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair in addition to the remplissage procedure. METHODS: According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a search was conducted using three databases (MEDLINE/OVID, EMBASE and PubMed). Retrieved studies were screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria for comparative studies. Data were extracted and meta-analysis performed using a random-effects model. RESULTS: A total of 16 studies (13 level III studies, 2 level II studies and 1 level I) were included with a total of 507 and 704 patients in the Bankart plus remplissage and isolated Bankart repair groups, respectively. No studies reported glenoid bone loss of >20% with the least percentage of glenoid bone loss reported among studies being <1%. There was a significantly increased rate of recurrent dislocations (odds ratio [OR] = 4.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.380-7.48, p < 0.00001) and revision procedures (OR = 3.36, 95% CI: 1.52-7.41, p = 0.003) in the isolated Bankart repair group compared to the Bankart plus remplissage group. Additionally, there were no significant differences between groups in terms of external rotation at side (n.s.), in abduction (n.s.) or at forward flexion (n.s.) at final follow-up. Furthermore, return to preinjury level of sport favoured the Bankart plus remplissage group (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.35-0.85, p = 0.007). CONCLUSION: Patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart plus remplissage for anterior shoulder instability have lower rates of recurrent instability, higher rates of return to sport, and no significant difference in range of motion at final follow-up when compared to an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair. Further large, prospective studies are needed to further determine which patients and degree of bone loss would benefit most from augmentation with the remplissage procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.

BACKGROUND: The Latarjet procedure is commonly performed in the treatment of recurrent shoulder instability and is also indicated as a salvage procedure for recurrence after failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Although this procedure has shown success, there has been an increased awareness of complications in recent studies, especially graft osteolysis. Most relevant research has focused on the pathophysiology, incidence, or location of graft osteolysis or the risk factors for graft osteolysis; however, the data are limited to primary Latarjet procedures. This study aimed to investigate the effect of previous arthroscopic Bankart repair surgery on coracoid bone graft osteolysis in the Latarjet procedure. METHODS: This retrospective case-control study analyzed data from patients who underwent primary Latarjet procedures or revision Latarjet procedures following failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Clinical outcome measures included range of motion, the Subjective Shoulder Value, and the Rowe score. Volumetric analysis of each transferred coracoid graft was performed using early postoperative and late postoperative computed tomography scan data, and the amount of graft osteolysis was then calculated as the percentage of volume reduction of each graft. RESULTS: A total of 32 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study, with 24 patients in the primary Latarjet group (group I) and 8 patients in the revision Latarjet group (group II). The mean age of the patients was 32.5 ± 7.7 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 52.1 ± 8.9 months. Both study groups showed significant improvement in the Subjective Shoulder Value compared with baseline (P < .05). Comparison of postoperative clinical outcome measures showed no significant difference in any outcome parameter between the 2 study groups (P > .05). No recurrence was observed during the follow-up period. A positive apprehension sign was present in 6 patients (25%) in group I and 4 patients (50%) in group II (P > .05). Analysis of radiologic data revealed that all patients underwent some degree of graft osteolysis, with varying osteolysis ratios between 12% and 98%. The mean osteolysis ratio of the coracoid graft was 67.3% ± 22.6% in group I and 69.4% ± 25.6% in group II, with no significant difference between the 2 groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest that a considerable amount of coracoid graft osteolysis is observed after both primary Latarjet procedures and revision Latarjet procedures following failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Previous arthroscopic Bankart repair did not seem to have a significant influence on the amount of graft osteolysis, and both primary and revision Latarjet procedures showed satisfactory clinical outcomes.

INTRODUCTION: Arthroscopic revision anterior shoulder instability repair has been proposed, and early clinical results have been promising. However, long-term results after this procedure and the probable risk factors for failure have not been sufficiently discussed in the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-eight patients who were diagnosed with recurrent anteroinferior shoulder instability after failed Bankart repair, treated with ACRR between September 1998 and November 2003 and able to be contacted were included. Of these patients, 2 were excluded from the study due to the use of SureTak anchors for fixation, and 5 other patients refused to participate in the study due to lack of interest (3 patients) or lack of time (2 patients). The remaining shoulders were clinically examined at a minimum of ten years after surgery via the ASES, Constant, AAOS, Rowe, Dawson and VAS scores for pain and stability. Degenerative arthropathy was assessed with the modified Samilson-Prieto score. RESULTS: All 31 remaining shoulders were evaluated at a mean time of 11.86 years (142.4 months) after surgery. Six patients (19.35%) reported redisolcation after the revision procedure, 4 of whom were affected by a new significant shoulder trauma. The ROWE and Constant scores improved significantly. Moderate to severe dislocation arthropathy was observed in 19.4% of patients. Five patients (16.2%) were not satisfied with the procedure. CONCLUSION: Long-term follow-up after ACRR shows predictable results, with a high degree of patient satisfaction, good to excellent patient-reported outcome scores and minimal radiological degenerative changes. However, with an average recurrence rate of 19.3% after 11.86 years, the redislocation rate appears high. With careful patient selection, recurrence rates can be significantly reduced.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to clinically validate the Hill-Sachs interval to glenoid track width ratio (H/G ratio) compared with the instability severity index (ISI) score for predicting an increased risk of recurrent instability after arthroscopic Bankart repair. METHODS: A retrospective evaluation was performed using data from patients with anteroinferior shoulder instability who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with a follow-up period of at least 24 months. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off values for the H/G ratio and the ISI score to predict an increased risk of recurrent instability. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the two methods and the sensitivity and specificity of their optimal cut-off values were compared. RESULTS: A total of 222 patients were included, among whom 31 (14.0%) experienced recurrent instability during the follow-up period. The optimal cut-off values for predicting an increased risk of recurrent instability were an H/G ratio of ≥ 0.7 and ISI score of ≥ 4. There were no significant differences between the AUC of the two methods (H/G ratio AUC = 0.821, standard error = 0.035 and ISI score AUC = 0.792, standard error = 0.04; n.s.) nor between the sensitivity and specificity of the optimal cut-off values (n.s. and n.s., respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The H/G ratio is comparable to the ISI score for predicting an increased risk of recurrent instability after arthroscopic Bankart repair. Surgeons are recommended to consider other strategies to treat anterior shoulder instability if H/G ratio is ≥ 0.7. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

BACKGROUND: Revision surgery after the Latarjet procedure is a rare and challenging surgical problem, and various bony or capsular procedures have been proposed. This systematic review examines clinical and radiographic outcomes of different procedures for treating persistent pain or recurrent instability after a Latarjet procedure. METHODS: A systematic review of the literature was performed using the Medline, Cochrane, EMBASE, Google Scholar and Ovid databases with the combined keywords "failed", "failure", "revision", "Latarjet", "shoulder stabilization" and "shoulder instability" to identify articles published in English that deal with failed Latarjet procedures. RESULTS: A total of 11 studies (five retrospective and six case series investigations), all published between 2008 and 2020, fulfilled our inclusion criteria. For the study, 253 patients (254 shoulders, 79.8% male) with a mean age of 29.6 years (range: 16-54 years) were reviewed at an average follow-up of 51.5 months (range: 24-208 months). CONCLUSIONS: Eden-Hybinette and arthroscopic capsuloplasty are the most popular and safe procedures to treat recurrent instability after a failed Latarjet procedure, and yield reasonable clinical outcomes. A bone graft procedure and capsuloplasty were proposed but there was no clear consensus on their efficacy and indication.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare outcomes of arthroscopic tricortical iliac crest autograft and allograft bone blocks for recurrent traumatic anterior shoulder instability in terms of bone resorption, union and recurrent instability and assess which one is a better graft choice. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-two consecutive patients treated for recurrent traumatic anterior shoulder instability that required reconstruction with bone block were included in the study. Surgical reconstruction was carried out arthroscopically with contoured tricortical iliac crest autograft or allograft. At follow-up, patients were assessed for Oxford Shoulder Instability Score (OSIS), recurrent dislocation, apprehension testing, complications, and 3-dimensional computed tomography (CT) for resorption and union rate at a mean of 10.89 months. RESULTS: There were 10 patients in the allograft group with a median age of 27.7 years and a mean follow-up of 26.6 months. In the autograft group, there were 12 patients with a median age of 29 years and a mean follow-up of 28.7 months. The OSIS increased in both groups but was significantly higher in the autograft group (54.1 vs 48.2, p = 0.02). There were 2 failures in each group but no hardware complications. Allograft had higher resorption rate in comparison (75% in allograft vs 40% in autograft) and higher non-union rate (62.5% in allograft vs 16.5% in autograft). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that both tricortical iliac crest autograft and allograft can improve shoulder instability symptoms. However, the results suggest that autograft may lead to significantly improved instability score, higher union rate and less bone resorption. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, retrospective study.

PURPOSE: The study aimed to compare modified arthroscopic subscapularis augmentation (MASA) with tenodesis of the upper third of the subscapularis tendon using a tendon combined with capsulolabral reconstruction (Group A) or Bankart repair (Group B) for recurrent anterior shoulder instability (RASI). METHODS: A retrospective series of 49 patients underwent primary surgery for RASI with glenoid bone loss (GBL) < 25%. Outcomes included the Oxford Shoulder Instability Score (OSIS), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, Rowe score, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) functional outcome scale score. Recurrent instability, sports activity level, and range of motion (ROM) were also analysed. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed at baseline. Forty-six patients were available for more than 2 years of follow-up. At the last follow-up after surgery, the patients in both groups had experienced significant improvements in all outcome scores (P < 0.05 for all), and obvious decreases in forward flexion and external rotation were noted in both groups (P < 0.05 for all). Group A had superior ASES scores, VAS scores, and OSISs (P < 0.05) but did not experience significant differences in either the Rowe score or ROM compared to Group B. Group A had lower rates of recurrent instability and superior outcomes for the return to sports activities. One patient in Group A had subluxation, and 4 patients in Group B had dislocation or subluxation. No patients in either group experienced neurovascular injury, joint stiffness, or surgical wound infection. CONCLUSION: For RASI with GBL < 25%, MASA with tenodesis of the upper third of the subscapularis tendon using a tendon combined with capsulolabral reconstruction was a safe technique that produced better outcomes in terms of ASES scores, VAS scores, OSISs, the return to sports, and postoperative recurrent instability and did not decrease the ROM compared to that achieved by arthroscopic Bankart repair.

BACKGROUND: Instability arthropathy (IA) is a major long-term concern in patients with anterior shoulder instability. This study investigated the association of glenoid morphology with the development of IA. METHODS: The study included 118 patients with unilateral anterior shoulder instability and available bilateral computed tomography scans. Instability-specific information was obtained from all patients. The glenoid morphology of the affected shoulder was compared with the nonaffected contralateral side resembling the constitutional preinjury glenoid shape. Both shoulders were evaluated independently by 3 observers to assess the grade of IA according to a Comprehensive Arthropathy Rating (CAR) system. Associations between IA and the glenoid morphology parameters were investigated. RESULTS: The average glenoid retroversion (P < .001), glenoid depth (P < .001), glenoid diameter (P < .001), and the bony shoulder stability ratio (P < .001) of the affected shoulder were significantly reduced compared with the contralateral side due to bony defects in 79.6% of the patients. The CAR of the affected side was significantly higher (P < .001), with more osteophytes (P = .001) and more sclerosis and cysts (P < .001). Differences in CAR (Δ-CAR) correlated positively with the age at the time of the computed tomography scan (P < .001), age at the initial dislocation (P = .001), size of the glenoid defect (P = .005), and the contralateral glenoid depth (P = .011), glenoid diameter (P = .016), and bony shoulder stability (P = .029), and negatively with glenoid retroversion of the affected side (P = .027). CONCLUSION: Development of IA arthropathy is associated not only with the age of the patients but also with morphologic parameters of the glenoid, including glenoid defect size and the constitutional glenoid concavity shape.

PURPOSE: To investigate whether arthroscopic Latarjet procedure significantly differs from the open procedure as for the clinical, functional and radiographic outcomes. METHODS: Two reviewers independently conducted a systematic search according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses using the MEDLINE/PubMed database and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. These databases were queried with the terms "shoulder" AND "anterior" AND "instability" AND "Latarjet". RESULTS: From the 259 initial papers, we finally assessed five clinical studies which were eligible to our inclusion-exclusion criteria. The mean modified Coleman score for methodological deficiencies of the studies was 65.4/100, whereas it ranged from 53/100 to 77/100. The arthroscopic technique illustrated comparable results to the open technique regarding the postoperative recurrence rate. No significant difference was found amongst groups in relation to the postoperative osteoarthritis, infection rates, soft tissue healing, postoperative mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, mean Walch-Duplay score, fatty infiltration of the subscapularis muscle and posterior protrusion of the screw. The arthroscopic technique yielded significantly superior results as for the non-union rate of the graft, the total graft osteolysis and graft resorption, the mean Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index score and the early postoperative pain. CONCLUSIONS: Both the open and the arthroscopic Latarjet procedures led to satisfactory radiographic and clinical outcomes for the treatment of patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability and significant glenoid bone loss. However, the overall quality of the studies ranged from low to moderate. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Comprehensive and systematic review of level II-III therapeutic studies.

INTRODUCTION: Glenoid bone loss in recurrent anterior instability of the shoulder needs to be addressed to restore joint stability. Over the last years, several arthroscopic methods have been described to treat this condition. However, no clinical mid-term results have been presented for arthroscopic iliac crest bone grafting procedures. METHODS: We included 32 patients with significant glenoid bone loss and repetitive dislocations of the shoulder who were treated in our shoulder unit with a previously described all-arthroscopic reconstruction technique. All patients filled out a questionnaire evaluating repetitive dislocations, consumption of pain medicine, Constant Score (CS, adapted to age and gender), activities of daily living (ADL), visual analogue scale for pain (VAS) as well as the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI). Additionally, all complications were recorded. RESULTS: After a mean follow-up of 42 months, three traumatic dislocations had been observed. With an ADL of 25 points (95% CI 24-27), a WOSI of 71% (95% CI 65-76) and CS of 87 points (95% CI 82-92), our patients showed good functional results. The VAS result for pain was 2.1 (95% CI 1.5-2.6). No patient reported the regular usage of pain medicine related to the shoulder instability at final follow-up. CONCLUSION: The all-arthroscopic glenoid reconstruction using iliac crest grafts shows good functional results with a recurrence rate of 9%. At final follow-up 42 months after surgery, our patients showed low pain levels and acceptable complications.

BACKGROUND: Immediate and early postoperative complications of the Latarjet procedure are not well documented in the literature. The purpose of this study was to report the procedure-related complications of our large consecutive case series of 3 surgeons at a single high-volume center. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective chart review of 416 Latarjet procedures performed on 400 patients (16 patients had bilateral procedures) who underwent surgery by the 3 senior authors from October 2002 to July 2015. Immediate and early complications included hardware problems, infection, and neurologic injury. In addition, the patient's age and history of prior instability surgery were noted and evaluated as risk factors for complication. RESULTS: The overall complication rate was 5.0% (21 complications in 19 procedures). Thirteen neurologic injuries (3.1%) occurred to the axillary (7), musculocutaneous (4), and suprascapular (2) nerves, including 2 patients with multiple nerves affected. All but 2 patients had complete resolution of symptoms at time of last follow-up. Six infections (1.4%) developed, including 3 superficial infections treated with oral antibiotics and 3 deep infections requiring irrigation and débridement with intravenous antibiotics. Two early hardware-related complications (0.05%) were also noted. Increased age was associated with a higher complication rate. History of prior surgery was not associated with increased complications in our series. CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the procedural complications of the Latarjet procedure. Neurologic injury was the most common complication in our series, with complete or near-complete recovery in 11 of 13 patients.

BACKGROUND: Although recurrent anterior shoulder instability (RASI) is a common condition in young patients, no studies to date have measured the 3-dimensional (3D) locked position of the glenohumeral joint during an anterior dislocation. Therefore, our goal was to estimate it with 3D computed tomography (CT) scans. METHODS: Patients in this prospective observational study were separated in 3 groups: normal laxity, hyperlaxity, and epilepsy. They were characterized by questionnaires (Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, 11-item version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand, and Beighton Laxity Score), and a CT scan revealing bipolar bone defects. 3D models of the humeral head and the glenoid were reconstructed from the CT scan, and the rotations and displacements of the humerus relative to the glenoid, from initial to locked position, were calculated. Intraobserver and interobserver reliability by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), analysis of variance test, and the Pearson correlation were used to evaluate data. RESULTS: This study involved 44 patients (46 shoulders): 18 with "normal" laxity, 18 with hyperlaxity and 8 (2 bilateral) with epilepsy. The mean locked position was of 12° of abduction, 90° of external rotation, and 21° of extension. The intraobserver and interobserver reliability was excellent for all the rotations and displacements (ICCs, 0.751-0.977) except the proximal-distal displacement (ICCs, 0.409-0.688). Significant differences were found for external rotation, anterior displacement, and medial displacement among the 3 groups of patients. Correlation was found between locked position and function. CONCLUSIONS: This study produced highly reliable measurements, with abduction angles proving to be lower than expected. Future work should focus on the effect of this low abduction angle on Hill-Sachs lesion management.

The incidence of upper extremity (UE) injuries in sport, particularly with the shoulder and elbow in baseball/softball players, appears to be increasing yearly, especially in younger age athletes. Improving the objective criteria and testing methods used to determine return to play (RTP) readiness following non-operative or post-operative management of UE injuries is one aspect of the rehabilitation process that may significantly help in reducing reinjury rates. Currently, the majority of clinicians are still using post operative time frame and/or strength/range of motion as their main criteria for clearance to RTP following UE injury. This demonstrates an inadequate reflection of the actual unpredictable, dynamic environment athletes are returning to participate in. In our clinical experiences, objective testing to allow for clearance to sport participation should incorporate neurocognitive and reactive testing to promote improvements in the athlete's ability to dual task and focus/concentrate on the multi-dimensional tasks at hand. We know that neuroplastic changes occur following UE injury resulting in decreased proprioception and increased motor activation with simple UE tasks. Currently the research on UE return to play testing is limited. The purpose of this clinical commentary was to describe the utilization and provide reference values for a series of reactive neurocognitive UE tests, to assist with RTP, in high school and collegiate overhead athletes (baseball and softball) utilizing the Blaze Pod light system. The use of a more dynamic reactive testing battery may decrease the reinjury rates when an athlete is cleared for participation by measuring readiness in chaotic circumstances that are more reflective of the sporting environment the athlete is working to return to resulting in a greater sense of confidence, performance and prevention of reinjuries.
RESUMEN
Recurrent shoulder dislocation is a common orthopedic condition, but bilateral involvement is rare and presents unique challenges in management. The Latarjet procedure is an effective surgical technique that addresses instability by creating a bony block on the anterior glenoid rim. This case highlights the successful management of bilateral recurrent shoulder dislocation using the bilateral shoulder open Latarjet procedure and emphasizes the importance of early intervention in such cases.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Evaluate complications in correlation with radiological findings after an open Latarjet procedure performed on 140 shoulders with recurrent anterior instability with follow-up from 8 to 174 months. METHODS: Retrospectively, 140 shoulders, diagnosed with recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability, which were surgically treated with the open Latarjet procedure in our hospital, between January 2004 and November 2017, had been analysed. Mean age of operated patients was 29.5 years. One hundred and twenty-three patients were male (88.5%) and 16 were female (11.5%). Average length of follow-up was 110 months. Radiographs and CT scans of 16 patients with complications had been evaluated and correlations between radiological findings and observed complications had been analysed. RESULTS: Complications occurred in 16 shoulders (11%). Rates of individual complications were: 1. persistent pain (9%), 2. limited ROM (7%), 3. recurrent instability (6%), 4. neurologic injury (2%), 5. persistent apprehension (2%), 6. reduced strength (2%), 7. hematoma (1%) and 8. intraoperative coracoid graft fracture (0.8%). Mean postoperative ASES score and ROWE score were statistically significantly lower in the group with complications, compared to the group without complications. Good or excellent results were reported by 87.9% patients. CONCLUSION: Open Latarjet procedure is an effective and safe method for the treatment of recurrent shoulder instability, resulting in good to excellent outcomes in 87.9% of our cases. However, it is related to a higher postoperative complication rate compared to some other treatment options. Overall, very good results with high level of patient satisfaction have been demonstrated.

INTRODUCTION: The treatment of chronic shoulder instability, associated with poor tissue quality, remains challenging in the setting of anterior capsular deficiency. There are a few viable alternatives in the end-stage shoulder instability when multiple surgical attempts to correct the pathology have failed. The purpose of the present paper is to demonstrate the efficacy of anterior capsular reconstruction with semitendinosus autograft for the management of capsulolabral deficiency without associated bone loss. CASE REPORT: A 39-year-old female admitted in our institution with a history of recurrent atraumatic anterior dislocation of the left shoulder after three unsuccessful surgical attempts: Arthroscopic and open capsulorrhaphy and a Latarjet coracoid transfer. CT scan images showed adequate placement (flush) of the coracoid transfer without any sign of reabsorption. Reconstruction of anterior capsulolabral structure was performed using a Semitendinosus autograft. The middle and inferior glenohumeral ligaments, the more crucial ligaments for anterior-inferior shoulder stability, were effectively recreated. The patient did not suffer any recurrent dislocation or subjective symptoms of instability at the time of the final follow-up, 2 years after surgery, and the ASES score increased from 36 preoperatively to 86. CONCLUSION: This technique, described for the first time as a salvage procedure after Latarjet failure, could represent a safe and viable treatment option in the context of multiple ineffective surgeries.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The treatment of traumatic anterior shoulder instability in professional Australian Football League (AFL) players is challenging, with an emphasis on early return to play and avoidance of instability recurrence. PURPOSE: To investigate return-to-sport (RTS) outcomes and complications after 2 different procedures for traumatic anterior shoulder instability in professional AFL players. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed our surgical database for professional AFL players who underwent capsulolabral stabilization or open Latarjet procedure by a single surgeon between 2006 and 2017. Outcomes included RTS, on-field performance, and complications. Between-group analyses for RTS and complications were estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analyses. Within-group analyses for on-field performance data were performed using paired t tests with significance set at .05. RESULTS: A total of 58 capsulolabral stabilization procedures in 54 players and 32 Latarjet procedures in 29 players were included in the analysis; 93.1% of capsulolabral patients and 96.9% of Latarjet patients returned to professional AFL. The median RTS time was 6.8 months for the capsulolabral group and 7.3 months for the Latarjet group. There was no significant difference in RTS rates between the 2 groups (P = .270). Of those undergoing surgery early in the season, 75% of the capsulolabral and 71% of Latarjet group were able to RTS within the same season, at a mean time of 16.9 weeks and 18.8 weeks, respectively. There was a significant difference in instability recurrence, with 19% for the capsulolabral group and no recurrence in the Latarjet group (P = .017). There was no significant reduction in player on-field performance in either group (P < .05). CONCLUSION: In this study, the median RTS in AFL players was approximately 7 months after capsulolabral and Latarjet surgery with no compromise to on-field performance. Instability-related complications occurred only in the capsulolabral group, and the incidence increased with time.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the sensitivity, specificity, and validity of the Predicting Recurrent Instability of the Shoulder (PRIS) tool in people with a first-time traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. METHODS: People with first-time traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation (n = 85), aged 16 to 40 years, were recruited within 12 weeks of their shoulder dislocation and followed prospectively for 1 year post injury. We calculated the sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of the PRIS tool. RESULTS: Of the 75 participants available for 1-year follow-up, 57 (76%) did not have recurrent shoulder instability. With the PRIS tool cut point set at 0.895, the tool's sensitivity was 39% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 17.3%, 64.3%) and its specificity was 95% (95% CI: 85.4%, 98.9%). The area under the curve was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.55, 0.84; P = .01). The PRIS tool correctly identified 54 of the 57 (95%) who did not have recurrent instability (accuracy, 81%; 95% CI: 70.7%, 89.4%). Negative and positive predictive values were 83% (95% CI: 77.2%, 87.7%) and 70% (95% CI: 40.2%, 89.0%), respectively. CONCLUSION: The PRIS tool can predict those who will not have further shoulder instability in the year following first-time traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation. The PRIS tool cannot accurately predict those who will have recurrent shoulder instability. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2020;50(8):431-437. doi:10.2519/jospt.2020.9284.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze if general factors such as age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI (body mass index), smoking, and drinking play a role in graft resorption after arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone grafting. METHODS: From July 2016 to August 2018, patients who were diagnosed with anterior shoulder instability with subcritical bone loss (10%-15%) and underwent arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft transplant were retrospectively reviewed and enrolled in this study. The age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, and drinking conditions of the enrolled patients were recorded. The graft resorption rate at postoperative 1 year was also measured on three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) scans. The Pearson test and the Spearman test were used to identify any significant correlation between the general factors and graft resorption rate. RESULTS: A total of 27 patients who underwent arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft for recurrent shoulder instability qualified and were included in this study. There were 20 males and seven females, the mean age was 30.8 ± 9.4 years, the mean follow-up time was 29.3 months (range, 25-39 months), during which no severe complications such as infection, neurovascular injury, or re-dislocation were observed. The bone graft healed in all cases, the mean healing time was 2.6 ± 0.5 months (range, 2-3 months). At the last follow-up, the mean Constant-Murley score was 89.74 ± 3.71, the mean Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score was 9.77 ± 5.31, and the mean visual analogue score (VAS) was 0.74 ± 0.64. The apprehension test was all negative at final follow-up. The fasting blood sugar level was 4.78 ± 0.42 mmol/L, BMI was 23.70 ± 4.70. Five patients were "smoking" and 22 "non-smoking", four patients were "drinking" and 23 were "non-drinking." The graft resorption rate at postoperative 1 year was 19.4% ± 7.5%. The Pearson test and the Spearman test showed no significant correlation between age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, drinking, and graft resorption rate. CONCLUSION: Age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, and drinking were not significantly correlated with graft resorption after the arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft for recurrent shoulder instability.

BACKGROUND: The all-arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction technique using a distal tibial allograft avoids damage to the subscapularis muscle and allows repair of the capsulolabral tissue. PURPOSE: To analyze the clinicoradiologic outcomes of patients who underwent this procedure to treat anterior shoulder instability with glenoid bone loss with a minimum 2-year follow-up. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: Over 6 years, 73 patients (52 male and 21 female; mean age, 28.8 years) under the care of the same surgeon underwent arthroscopic stabilization with capsulolabral Bankart repair and bony allograft augmentation of the glenoid for recurrent shoulder instability with significant bone loss. Pre- and postoperative patient-reported functional assessment was performed using 2 questionnaires, the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) and the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand, and radiological assessment was performed using radiographs and computed tomography scans obtained preoperatively and approximately 1 year later (mean ± SD, 0.9 ± 1.1 years). RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 4.7 ± 1.1 years. The mean pre- and postoperative WOSI scores were 71.1 ± 17.5 and 25.6 ± 21.9, respectively (P < .001). There were no recurrences of dislocation, although 1 patient had symptoms of subluxation; however, 5 patients had hardware complications that required screw removal. There were no cases of nerve injury. Postoperative computed tomography scans were available for 66 patients. Seven patients were lost to follow-up. The graft union rate was 100%. Overall, graft resorption was <50% in 86% of patients (57/66). Eighteen patients (27%) had no resorption (grade 0), 39 (59%) had <50% (grades 1 and 2), and 9 (14%) had ≥50% (grade 3); however, none had symptoms of instability. The mean alpha angle of the screw between the screw shaft axis and the native glenoid axis was 18.3°± 5.7°. Graft positioning was flush with the glenoid in 61 of 66 patients (92.4%), and vertical positioning was excellent in 64 of 66 patients (97.0%) (3- to 5-o'clock position). CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic stabilization using distal tibial allograft augmentation resulted in excellent clinicoradiologic outcomes at a 2-year follow-up. This procedure has the advantages of being an anatomic reconstruction that addresses bony and soft tissue instability. However, long-term follow-up studies are necessary for better assessment of outcomes.
