Hill-Sachs lesion is the most common lesion in shoulder dislocation patient and it represented by postero-lateral bony defect of humerus. The lesion could be found in patients who dislocate shoulder joint first time, and it is reported that Hill-Sachs lesion proportionally increases as dislocation does. The location and presence of Hill-Sachs lesion play significant roles in shoulder instability. Authors experienced a double Hill-Sachs lesion in a recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation patient, and thereby report the case with a review of the literature.

As the multidirection and posterior instabilities of the shoulder are not only uncommon but responds well to conservative treatment, the shoulder instabilities which requires surgical treatment are traumatic anterior type in most cases, Although various surgical procedures had been used in the past, Bankart procedure is the standard surgical method as a primary procedure in traumatic anterior instability, Nevertheless there has been changes in the techniques of Bankart procedure in order to minimize decrease of external rotation and effectively address capsular laxilty, Capsular shift might be needed if there remains excessive capsular laxity of the inferior capsule after repair of the Bankart lesion, Large bony Bankart lesion should be fixed if possible and severe glenoid rim erosion requires extracapsular bone block after repair of the capsule. Although a few surgical procedures are described for the management of Hill-Sachs lesion in special circumstances, Hill-Sachs lesion does not usually need to be addressed.

Purpose: This paper analyzes the results of arthroscopic bankart repair for anterior recurrent dislocation following a trauma on shoulder. Material and Methods: The subjects were twenty-three (23) cases that were available to follow up for more than eighteen months during the period from November 2001 to June 2003 and were chosen from patients to whom arthroscopic bankart repair was applied using a knotless suture anchor for their traumatic anterior recurrent dislocation on the shoulder. Their average age was 28 (ranging from 15 to 60) with 20 males and 3 females. The injury from sports activities accounted for the most cases with 14 subjects. The average follow-up period was 27 months (ranging from 18 months to 35 months). There were 19 cases of bankart lesions, 4 cases of ALPSA lesions and associated with 5 cases of partial tear in the rotator cuff. The anchors employed were knotless anchor (Mitek) for all the cases. Rowe scoring scale was adopted to judge the results after operations. Patients' subjective satisfaction and range of motion of external rotation were addressed together. Results: Rowe scores showed that 20 cases (87%) reaches the level of 'good' and hinger. The average patients' satisfaction accounted for 90 points out of 100. It was also found that external rotations averagely decreased by 6.5 degree when the range of motion was in at the side. Conclusion: There were satisfactory results of arthroscopic bankart repair using knotless suture anchors as an operative treatment for traumatic anterior recurrent dislocation on shoulder.

Background: This study investigated and evaluated the clinical outcomes of intra-articular lesions of traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation (TASD) associated with greater tuberosity (GT) fracture of the humerus. Methods: Subjects included 20 patients who were surgically or non-surgically treated for GT fracture of the humeurs with TASD, and followed-up for at least 2 years. The mean follow-up period was 54.1 months (range, 24-105 months). Of the 20 patients, 12 were treated surgically. Intra-articular lesions were identified randomly on magnetic resonance imaging scans (repeated thrice) by experienced radiologists and orthopedic surgeons. The accompanying intra-articular lesions were left untreated. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by Simple Shoulder Test (SST) and Western Ontario Shoulder Instability index (WOSI) at the last follow-up. Results: Intra-articular lesions were identified in 19 patients: 7 Bankart lesions, 15 humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament lesions, 3 glenoid avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament lesion, and 6 inferior capsular tears. Two or more intra-articular lesions were identified in 6 patients. The mean SST score was 10.9 and the mean WOSI score was 449.3 at the last follow-up. Conclusions: For GT fracture of the humerus with TASD, a high frequency of diverse intra-articular lesions was identified. There were no incidence of recurrent shoulder dislocations, and good clinical outcomes were obtained without treatment of the intra-articular lesions. We thereby comprehend that although intra-articular lesions may occur in TASD associated with GT fracture of the humeurs, merely treating the GT fracture of the humerus is sufficient.

Object : To evaluate the prognostic factors of the rotator cuff tear after anterior dislocation of the shoulder over the 5th decades of age. Methods : We evaluated twelve patients who had rotator cuff tears combined with primary anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint between May 1995 and October 1998. Their age were ranged from 42 to 67-years-old. Two of them were initially presumed to have an injury of the axillary nerve and associated with avulsion fracture of the greater tuberosity. Among twelve patients who had rotator cuff tears, 8 cases had massive, 3 cases had medium and one case had a small sized tear. Results : All the tears of the rotator cuff were repaired and the results were obtained by UCLA shoulder rating scale. Ten cases of them revealed more than good results except for 2 cases who had been unhappy triad of the shoulder injury. Conclusions : In the case of anterior dislocation of shoulder, it is necessary to check the injury of rotator cuff and axillary nerve in the middle age group. If these injuries are combined, proper rotator cuff repair and axillary nerve rehabilitation program would be asked for better results.

Background: Recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation (RASD) in cases of seizure disorders (SDs) total 50%-80% of all SD-associated shoulder instabilities. Based on the extent of bone loss, treatment options include bony and soft-tissue reconstructions, arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. The primary objective of this paper was to review the treatment options for RASD in SDs. Methods: Several bibliographic databases were searched for RASD treatment options in SD patients. The demographic outcome measures, the failure rate (defined as the relative risk of recurrence of dislocation postoperation), and the postoperative seizure recurrence rate were recorded. Results: We pooled 171 cases (187 shoulders) from 11 studies. Of these, one, five, two, two, and one reports studied Bankart's operation with remplissage (27 cases/29 shoulders), the Latarjet procedure (106/118), bone block operation (21/23), arthroplasty (11/11), and arthrodesis (6/6), respectively, in treating SD-associated RASD. The relative risk of failure between SD and non-SD patients was 3.76 (1.36-10.38) after the Latarjet operation. The failure rates were 17% and 13% for Bankart's operation with remplissage and the Latarjet procedure in SD patients, respectively, but 0% each for bone block operation, arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. The total rate of seizure recurrence after operation was 33% of the pooled cases. Conclusions: SD recurrence in the postoperative period, the size of the bone block, and the muscular attachments to a small coracoid autograft are the determinants of failure among various reconstructive operations in SD-associated RASD.
