Inferior Hill-Sachs Position Predicts Failure Following Primary Bankart Repair for On-Track Lesions

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Provich discusses a serendipitous discovery related to a new way of describing critical humeral bone loss. The clinical problem is that a significant number of primary arthroscopic stabilizations fail, and there is a correlation between recurrence and bipolar bone loss. They investigate the potential of using the vertical dimension of humeral bone loss as an independent predictor for instability. Their study results show that inferior humeral bone loss extension may be a predictive factor for recurrent dislocation. They suggest that paying attention to heel-sax lesions that extend below the equator of the humerus could be a simple screening method for surgery stratification. Validation and further research are still needed. The video was presented by Provich.
