Beyond the Arthroscopic Bankart: Advanced Techniques for Addressing Anterior Glenohumeral Instability (4/5)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the use of distal tibia allograft as a treatment option for patients with shoulder instability. The speaker highlights the case of a 23-year-old male athlete who experienced recurrent instability after a prior lattergé operation. Despite the rarity of instability after lattergé, the patient presented with mid-range motion instability and a failed graft. The speaker emphasizes the need for advanced imaging to assess the graft and notes the absence of a bone graft in this case. The panel discusses the potential causes of graft resorption and the need for careful placement of the graft to ensure sufficient bone support. The speaker then discusses the use of distal tibia allograft, citing studies that demonstrate its biomechanical advantages and favorable clinical outcomes. The speaker also emphasizes the need to rule out infection in revision cases and highlights the success of distal tibia allograft in such cases. Overall, the video provides insights into the use of distal tibia allograft as a treatment option for shoulder instability and highlights the importance of careful graft placement and evaluation.
