Dislocation of the shoulder is a common and often disabling injury to an athlete. Most shoulder dislocations are traumatic in origin, occur in the anterior direction and result in stretching and detachment of the anterior capsule and labrum. The most frequent adverse sequel of shoulder dislocation is recurrence--an event that occurs most commonly in active individuals and less frequently with age. In the past, many operative procedures failed to address the anatomical disruptions of shoulder instability. Recently, an enhanced understanding of shoulder instability pathoanatomy and significant technological advances have resulted in surgical procedures for shoulder instability that are less interventional and have focused on restoring disrupted static constraints.

Dynamic anterior stabilization of the shoulder using buttons.

NAEON Institute, São Paulo, Brazil.
Background: Surgical procedures to treat anterior shoulder instability are essentially divided into those for significant bone loss and those without relevant bone loss. However, there is a gray area between these procedures that would not require bone grafting but would benefit from improved stabilization mechanisms. This study evaluates a technique based on the triple soft tissue block, the dynamic anterior stabilization of the shoulder, using an adjustable button.

November 2024
Division of Shoulder Surgery, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Background: Joint hypermobility syndrome (JHS) and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) are connective tissue disorders characterized by increased joint laxity, affecting musculoskeletal health and quality of life. In this study, we explored recent trends in surgical treatment of shoulder instability among patients with these disorders.
Methods: We searched the PearlDiver Mariner database, which includes deidentified US all-payer claims data from 2010 to 2020.

Queensland Unit for Advanced Shoulder Research (QUASR), Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia.
Background: Frozen shoulder (FS) is a debilitating inflammatory condition affecting the shoulder capsule that causes significant pain and stiffness. Its etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment remain poorly understood. Although regarded as self-limiting, FS can have profound implications on the activities of daily living and usually takes 1-4 years to resolve on its own accord.

JSES Int
November 2024
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Ankara Yildirim Beyazıt University, Ankara, Turkey.
Background: Arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) and the open Latarjet (OL) procedure are the most frequently preferred methods in the treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability. The aim of this study was to compare patients who underwent ABR or OL due to anterior glenohumeral instability in terms of functional capacity, glenohumeral bone loss, residual apprehension, redislocation, and dislocation arthropathy.
Methods: A total of 56 patients who underwent ABR or OL due to anterior glenohumeral instability between January 2018 and December 2021 were evaluated retrospectively.
Development and validation of a sport-specific shoulder score questionnaire for functional fitness and weightlifting athletes.

January 2025
Department of Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery, BG University Hospital, Bochum, Germany.
Background: So-called scores are a frequently used evaluation system in clinical examinations to assess the function or limitations of a joint such as the shoulder. However, research indicates that these general scores often have limited validity for specific patient groups, such as athletes. Known as a demanding patient population, athletes have unique needs.
