Subscapularis Tendon Augmentation in Patients With Anterior Shoulder Instability Associated With Capsule‐Labral Deficit

Le résumé fourni par la source

Shoulder instability is a common problem in young adults. Without surgical treatment, the recurrence rate is unacceptably high. While arthroscopic capsulolabral repair is popular for anterior glenohumeral instability, it still faces limitations. Surgical failures may arise from technical errors, soft tissue insufficiency, bone loss, or rehabilitation challenges. In cases with less than 15% glenoid bone loss and no external rotation deficit, subscapular augmentation provides an option without necessitating bone grafts or additional surgery. An arthroscopic technique is presented that utilizes the subscapularis tendon for tenodesis at the anterior edge of the glenoid ring in patients with the absence of capsulolabral tissue to provide both protection of the anterior glenohumeral aspect and a safer return to functional activities.
