Soft tissue-based surgical techniques for treatment of posterior shoulder instability.
Obere Extremität 2017
Posterior shoulder instability is a rare clinical condition that encompasses different degrees of severity including various possible pathologies involving the labrum, capsule, bony lesions, and even locked posterior dislocation. When focusing on soft tissue involvement, the diagnosis of posterior instability may be difficult to make because frequently patients report vague symptoms not associated with a clear history of traumatic shoulder dislocation. Pathological soft tissue conditions associated with posterior instability in most cases are related to posterior labral tear and/or posterior capsular detensioning/tear. The diagnosis can be facilitated by physical examination using specific clinical tests (i. e., jerk test, Kim test, and reinterpreted O'Brien test) together with appropriate imaging studies (i. e., magnetic resonance arthrography). Arthroscopy may help in a complete evaluation of the joint and allows for the treatment of soft tissue lesions in posterior instability. Caution is warranted in the case of concomitant posterior glenoid chondral defect as a potential cause of poor outcome after soft tissue repair in posterior instability.
