Shoulder Dislocation
Latarjet procedure may be reliable in stabilizing shoulder dislocation with bone loss
KOLOA, Hawaii — In his presentation at Orthopedics Today Hawaii, Anthony A. Romeo, MD, said an open Bankart repair may not be enough for treatment of a second shoulder dislocation with 6% glenoid bone loss in a high school linebacker.
Arthroscopic glenoid reconstruction may have lower redislocation rate vs. Bankart repair
DENVER — According to results presented here, arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction may have a lower redislocation rate compared with Bankart repair among patients with recurrent instability.
VIDEO: Dislocation of sternoclavicular joint in pediatric patient
An 11-year-old left hand-dominant boy with no medical or surgical history presented to the pediatric orthopedic surgery clinic approximately 5 months after falling off a trampoline and falling directly onto his right shoulder.
39-year-old man with missed posterior shoulder dislocation
A 39-year-old right-hand dominant man with epilepsy presents with 7 months of right shoulder pain. The patient reports he was exercising when he heard a pop with immediate swelling and limited range of motion.
Distance to dislocation may be indicator of recurrent instability following Latarjet
WASHINGTON — Results presented here showed that distance-to-dislocation may be a stronger prognostic indicator of recurrent instability than glenoid bone loss following Latarjet.
Bankart repair with remplissage may lower recurrent dislocation rate in Hill-Sachs lesions
NEW ORLEANS — Results presented here showed arthroscopic labral repair with remplissage had a lower recurrent dislocation rate among patients with on-track Hill-Sachs lesions.
Speaker: Risk of recurrence important to assess in first-time shoulder dislocation
SAN FRANCISCO — Surgeons should treat patients with first-time shoulder dislocations critically by identifying risk of recurrence, the risk of delaying surgery and the relative success and risk of surgery, according to a presenter here.
Arthroscopic Bankart repair may reduce secondary shoulder dislocation in young patients
Published results showed treatment of anterior shoulder dislocation with arthroscopic Bankart repair may reduce the risk of secondary shoulder dislocation and improve functional outcomes compared with nonoperative treatment.
Multiple shoulder dislocations increased risk of bone loss
More than one shoulder dislocation prior to anterior stabilization surgery significantly predicted bone loss among athletes, according to results.
Preoperative shoulder dislocations cited as significant risk factor of bone loss
An increased number of preoperative shoulder dislocations is a significant predictor and modifiable risk factor of glenoid and humeral bone loss, according to a presentation at the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Annual Meeting.
