Natural History

The most common sequela of traumatic anterior shoulder
instability is recurrence
 90% for those 11 to 20 years of age
 Averaging between 55% and 66%
 87% recurrent instability after nonsurgical treatment

In the skeletally immature individual
 Bankart lesion (labral detachment of the inferior glenohumeral ligament
complex, IGHLC)
 Length of immobilization, avoidance of overhead activity, and
supervised physical therapy had no effect on outcome

Patients over 40 years of age
 Neurologic injury and rotator cuff tears
Biomechanics Static Stabilizers
Articular curvature between the glenoid and
humeral head
 Superior glenohumeral ligament (SGHL) and
coracohumeral ligament (CHL)

 To resist inferior translation

Middle glenohumeral ligament (MGHL)
 To limit anterior translation

IGHLC
 Primary restraint to anterior and posterior translation
 Secondary restraint to inferior translation
Biomechanics Dynamic Stabilizers

Rotator cuff muscles
 Center the humeral head on the glenoid
 Maintain joint stability

The capsuloligamentous structures
(proprioception) provide afferent feedback for
reflexive muscular control of the rotator cuff
and biceps

Causes of Anterior Shoulder Instability

Bankart lesion
 Avulsion of the anteroinferior capsulolabral complex

Hill-Sachs lesion
 Compression fracture of the posterosuperior humeral head

SLAP lesion
 Superior labrum anterior posterior

HAGL lesion
 Humeral avulsion of glenohumeral ligaments

ALPSA lesion
 Ant. labroligamentous periosteal sleeve avulsion

Laxity of the joint capsule
Treatment of Anterior Glenohumeral
Instability
 Nonsurgical
treatment:
 Closed reduction
 Immobilization (3 to 6 weeks) rehabilitation
 Rate of recurrence : (less than 20 years old)
 60%
to 90%
Treatment of Anterior Glenohumeral
Instability
 Arthroscopic
Bankart repair versus
nonoperative treatment for acute, initial
anterior shoulder dislocations.
 14 % versus 80% recurrent instability

Treatment of Anterior Glenohumeral
Instability
 Inferior
capsular shift procedure for
anterior-inferior shoulder instability in
athletes.
 Satisfactory results: 94%
 Returned to sports: 92% (75% at the same level).
 The rate of recurrence: 3%.

1994;22:578-584.
Treatment of Anterior Glenohumeral
Instability
 Arthroscopic
Bankart suture repair.
 Recurrent instability: 44%
 The authors recommend: caution in the
use of arthroscopic stabilization for the
competitive athlete.

Treatment of Anterior Glenohumeral
Instability
 Treatment
of instability of the shoulder
with an exercise program.
 Response to treatment:
Atraumatic
versus traumatic instability:
80% versus 15%
Burkhead WZ Jr, Rockwood CA Jr: J bone joint Surg 1992;74a:890-896.
Selective capsular tightening. A, The
inferior capsule is tightened with the
arm in 10° flexion, 60° abduction, and
45° to 60° external rotation. B, The
superior capsule is tightened with the
arm in 0° abduction and 45° external
rotation.
Treatment of Posterior Instability


Nonsurgical treatment with exercise program. (First
choice)
Surgical treatment
 Provide bony stability:
 Posterior bone block, opening wedge osteotomy of the
posterior glenoid (glenoplasty), and rotational osteotomy of
the humerus
 Soft-tissue repairs:
 Posterior labral repair, a posterior capsular plication, and
posterior capsulorrhaphy.
Instability in Throwing Athletes

Anterior instability
 During the late cocking phase
 Posterior capsular tightness, pain, or impingement signs

Posterior instability
 During the follow-through phase.

"Dead arm" syndrome
 Transient neurological symptoms
Acromioclavicular Instability

Mechanism
 Impact directly at the lateral edge of the acromion

Classification (Rockwood)
 Type I: a sprain of the AC joint
 Type II: partial rupture of the AC ligaments and the coracoclavicular
ligaments with subluxation of the AC joint
 Type III: dislocation of the AC joint with complete disruption of the
coracoclavicular and AC ligaments
 Type IV: dislocation of the AC joint with posterior displacement of the
clavicle into or through the trapezius muscle
 Type V: dislocation of the AC joint with marked superior displacement
of the clavicle greater than twice the normal coracoclavicular distance
 Type VI: inferior dislocation of the AC joint with subcoracoid
displacement of the clavicle
Rockwood classification of ligamentous
injuries to the acromioclavicular joint.
Treatment A-C Instability

Types I and II: nonsurgical
 Sling for 2 weeks
 Good results in over 90% of cases

Type III: controversial
 Surgical treatment for acute injuries in laborers or high
demand overhead athletes, and for chronic injuries in
which initial nonsurgical treatment fails

Types IV, V, and VI : surgical management
 AC fixation with pins or plates and coracoclavicular
fixation with nonabsorbable suture or metallic screws
Chronic symptomatic A-C instability: The modified
Weaver-Dunn procedure. (C-C fixation + transfer of the CA ligament to the distal clavicle)
