Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Treatment of anterior shoulder instability (ASI) is complex with many factors contributing to surgical decision making. The remplissage is an adjunct surgical technique that can be added at the time of arthroscopic labral repair or glenoid bone block reconstruction to decrease the recurrence rate of ASI post-operatively. The purpose of this review is to highlight the history, indications, and outcomes of remplissage when used for anterior shoulder instability. RECENT FINDINGS Prior studies have demonstrated that remplissage, when used in addition to an arthroscopic labral repair, can significantly reduce the rate of recurrent instability in patients with both off-track and near-track Hill Sachs lesions. There remains concern that addition of remplissage will negatively affect post-operative range of motion (ROM). However, recent literature suggests no difference observed in ROM when comparing remplissage plus arthroscopic labral repair to arthroscopic labral repair alone. While the addition of a remplissage has promising rates of return to sport, these results are less favorable when a remplissage is performed in an overhead athlete. The remplissage is a powerful surgical tool to utilize in addition to an arthroscopic labral repair or glenoid bone block reconstruction in patients with anterior instability. An understanding of appropriate indications and its influence on post-operative outcomes can assist the surgeon with providing the best possible outcome for each individual patient.

Postoperative Variations in Shoulder Biomechanics and Kinematics in the Abduction and External Rotation Position After Remplissage With Bankart Repair for Anterior Glenohumeral Instability: A Finite Element Analysis. Orthop J Sports Med 2025; 13:23259671251319509. [PMID: 40182567 PMCID: PMC11967234 DOI: 10.1177/23259671251319509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2024] [Accepted: 09/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2025] Open
Abstract
Background Remplissage with Bankart repair (RMBR) is an arthroscopic procedure performed on <25% of Bankart lesions with off-track Hill-Sachs lesions (HSLs) that alters the insertion of the infraspinatus muscle into the humeral head. However, the effects of RMBR surgery on humeral head displacement due to changes in biomechanics and kinematics have not been fully elucidated. Purpose To evaluate how the biomechanical and kinematic effects of the post-RMBR glenohumeral joint influence humeral head displacement using the finite element analysis (FEA) method. Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Methods Biomechanical and kinematic experiments were performed on 24 established finite element (FE) models, which included 12 normal glenohumeral joint models and 12 post-RMBR glenohumeral joint models at the abduction and external rotation (ABER) position. FEA was used to compute the total displacement of the humeral head during passive anteroinferior loading and active contraction of the infraspinatus muscle. Results Under passive anteroinferior loading, the humeral heads showed less total anterior displacement after RMBR than did normal glenohumeral joints in the ABER position (1.94 ± 0.48 vs 5.19 ± 1.91 mm; P = .003). When the infraspinatus muscle was stimulated to contract, the humeral heads of post-RMBR glenohumeral joints exhibited greater total posterior displacement in the ABER position than did the normal glenohumeral joints (4.22 ± 0.23 vs 2.44 ± 0.56 mm; P < .001). Conclusion Displacement of the humeral head is influenced by changes in the insertion of the infraspinatus tendon after RMBR surgery, which consequently affects the lever arm and torque generated by the infraspinatus muscle on the humeral head. Clinical Relevance The FEA results confirmed that a change in the insertion of the infraspinatus tendon alters the lever arm and torque produced by the infraspinatus muscle on the humeral head. This leads to changes in the displacement of the humeral head in the ABER position after the RMBR procedure. These findings deepen the understanding of RMBR surgery in clinical practice and can assist physicians in deciding whether to choose this surgical approach in patients with combined HSL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the effectiveness of remplissage in reducing instability recurrence, debate remains about the loss of external rotation (ER) after this procedure. PURPOSE To compare the loss of ER after primary isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair alone (BR), Bankart with remplissage (REMP), and Latarjet (LAT) procedures. STUDY DESIGN Meta-analysis; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A literature search of 4 databases was conducted to identify comparative studies reporting ER after BR, REMP, or LAT. ER loss with the arm at side was collected, along with postoperative Rowe score, return to previous sport level, instability recurrence, reintervention, and noninstability complications. Dichotomous variables were assessed using odds ratios with 95% CIs, and continuous variables were analyzed using mean differences (MDs) with 95% CIs. A random-effects meta-analysis was used for continuous outcomes and dichotomous outcomes. RESULTS In total, 27 studies were included, consisting of 2100 patients: 824 in BR, 378 in REMP, and 898 in LAT groups. The mean ER loss was 6.8°± 11° after BR, 9.3°± 12.6° after REMP, and 0.8°± 20.4° after LAT. Comparing REMP and BR, the MD was 5.9° (P = .13); between REMP and LAT, the MD was 9.6° (P = .17). For Rowe scores, the MD was 3.46 (P = .49) between REMP and BR and 0.24 (P = .9) between REMP and LAT. Odds ratios for return to previous sport level were 1.08 (P = .84) for REMP versus BR and 1.62 (P = .09) for REMP versus LAT. Regarding instability recurrence, the odds ratio was 6.67 (P = .04) for REMP versus BR and 1.43 (P = .48) for REMP versus LAT. The odds ratio for reoperation for BR was 7.69 (P = .05) compared with REMP, and the odds ratio for complications for LAT was 6.25 (P = .02) compared with REMP. CONCLUSION Remplissage reduces instability recurrence compared with isolated Bankart repair without any statistically significant difference in postoperative ER deficit. Remplissage may reduce the risk of reoperation compared with Latarjet with no difference in postoperative ER deficit or recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Glenohumeral instability with combined bone lesion in contact and overhead athletes with subcritical bone loss is challenging to treat with high recurrent instability. Treatment options are arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage and Latarjet operations. However, there is no consensus on their effectiveness. This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes and return to sports after both operations and whether evaluating the glenoid bone loss and Hill-Sachs width to calculate the total bone loss can help determine the appropriate operation. METHODS In this retrospective comparative analysis, 30 athletes who underwent index arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (n = 16) or Latarjet procedure (n = 14) between 2017 and 2020 were included. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were routinely performed. The quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (qDASH), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), instability severity index (ISI) scores and range of motion (ROM) were recorded preoperatively and at a mean follow-up of 53 months (SD = 12). Follow-up included time-to-return sports, self-perceived sports performance level and complications/recurrent dislocations. RESULTS Preoperative qDASH, ASES, ISI scores, ages and genders were similar. The Latarjet group had significantly larger glenoid bone loss, Hill-Sachs width and total bone loss (p < 0.01). Both groups had significant improvement in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after the operations (p < 0.01). Athletes with a total bone loss <25% underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage and total bone loss ≥25% underwent Latarjet procedure, and there were no differences between the groups in terms of postoperative PROs, ROM, time-to-return sports and performance. There were no re-dislocations. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage or Latarjet procedure can adequately address glenohumeral instability with combined bone lesions. Patients with total bone loss scores greater than or equal to 25 may particularly benefit from the Latarjet procedure, while the minimally invasive arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage can yield equally satisfying scores for total bone loss less than 25. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic Latarjet using suture-button fixation has shown good clinical results and low recurrent instability in patients with significant glenoid bone loss. However, the presence of an associated Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) is a risk factor for recurrent instability after isolated Latarjet. The aim of the study was to report clinical and radiologic results following all-arthroscopic Latarjet combined with Hill-Sachs remplissage (HSR). METHODS Monocentric prospective study including 41 patients (mean age 28 ± 7 years) who underwent the combined procedure between 2014 and 2019 with minimum 2 years' follow-up (mean 40 ± 13 months). Indications were glenoid bone loss >10% (mean 23.9% ± 7.5%) and large, deep HSL (Calandra 3). Five (13%) patients had signs of osteoarthrosis stage I preoperatively, 4 (10%) had previous stabilization surgery (3 cases isolated Bankart and 1 case Bankart combined with HSR), and 4 (13%) were epileptic. The HSR was performed first followed by guided Latarjet procedure. Primary outcome measures included shoulder stability and function represented by Walch-Duplay and Rowe scores, and Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV) for daily life/sports. Secondary outcome measures included coracoid graft position and union, and glenohumeral osteoarthritis using radiographs and computed tomography. RESULTS Three patients (7%) had recurrent instability: 1 due to seizure, 1 following fall, and 1 related to graft osteolysis. Two patients were revised because of recurrence with arthroscopic distal clavicle autograft. There were no infections, neurologic complications, or hardware failures. The Walch-Duplay score was 90 (95% CI 76.8-93.2), and the Rowe score 95 (95% CI 77.2-92.2). The median SSV averaged 96% (95% CI 87.5-97.0) for daily life and 90% (95% CI 75.7-90.2) for sports. Mean external rotation with the arm at the side was 60° (95% CI 59°-70°) with a median loss 10° (95% CI 3°-17°) compared to the contralateral side. Among patients playing sport preoperatively, 36 (95%) were able to return to sport: 25 (67%) at the same level and 7 (18%) at a lower level, whereas 4 had to change sport. The coracoid graft was flush with the glenoid surface in 96% of cases and subequatorial in 89%. The graft developed nonunion in 11% and fractured in 5%. Seven patients (18%) had radiographic signs of grade I osteoarthritis. CONCLUSION Combined arthroscopic Latarjet and HSR is an efficient solution for dealing with significant bipolar glenohumeral bone loss. The combined procedure deserves consideration in high-risk patients including combined bone loss, recurrent anterior instability after failed stabilization procedures and/or seizure.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the prevalence of spin in systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses of clinical studies of the remplissage procedure. Methods Two reviewers independently performed a literature search of the PubMed, Scopus, and Embase databases using the search term "remplissage" in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The full article of each included SR was assessed for the presence of the 15 most common types of spin. Methodologic quality was assessed using the second version of A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR 2). Results A total of 15 SRs (8 accompanied by meta-analyses; 6 Level III and 9 Level IV) were included. Overall, 13 SRs (86.7%) contained at least 1 form of spin, with 33 unique instances of spin recorded; the mean frequency was 2.2 ± 1.3 (range, 0-4). The most prevalent form of spin, present in 11 studies (73%), was type 9 ("conclusion claims the beneficial effect of the experimental treatment despite reporting bias"). There were 14 uses of spin classified as misleading reporting, 16 classified as misleading interpretation, and 3 classified as inappropriate extrapolation. The mean 5-year impact factor of the publishing journals was 4.4 ± 0.9 (range, 0-6.1), the mean number of citations per SR was 33.3 ± 24.9 (range, 0-55), and the mean number of citations per month since publication was 0.68 ± 0.44 (range, 0-1.48). According to the AMSTAR 2 assessment, confidence in the results of the SRs was rated as critically low for 20% of reviews, low for 33.3%, and moderate for 46.7%. Conclusions Most SRs of the remplissage procedure are affected by the presence of spin. Favorable reporting was observed in the absence of definite findings, as was minimization of drawbacks for certain populations. Level of Evidence Level IV, systematic review of Level III and IV studies.

Abstract
Anterior glenohumeral instability is one of the most common injuries suffered from sport. Despite padding and conditioning, the shoulder joint remains particularly vulnerable to injury, especially in the setting of contact. The overall rate of anterior instability is reported to be 0.12 injuries per 1000 athlete exposures, although this is increased up to 0.40 to 0.51 in the contact athlete. Successful treatment requires consideration of restoring stability while minimizing loss of glenohumeral motion. Common treatment strategies involve addressing the pathology that results from anterior shoulder dislocation including labral detachment as well as bony defects to the humeral head and glenoid.

Abstract
Background Anterior shoulder dislocation is the most common type of shoulder dislocation and is easy to develop into recurrent type, causing economic burden to society. This study uses the bibliometric method to analyze the global research status, hotspots and trends of anterior shoulder dislocation, aiming to promote the exploration of anterior shoulder dislocation. Methods The literature on anterior shoulder dislocation in the past two decades were retrieved and downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database. CiteSpace, VOSviewer and bibliometrix package of R software were used to conduct scientific bibliometric analysis of the literature. Finally, some statistical graphics were performed in Graphpad Prism. Results A total of 3914 publications related to anterior shoulder dislocation from 2003 to 2022 were retrieved and screened from the WOSCC database. The ranking of the analysis results showed that Provencher MT was the author with the highest frequency of occurrence. Rush University was the most notable contributor. The American Journal of Sports Medicine was the most comprehensive journal. The United States was the most prominent country. Keywords related to surgical treatment were more significant than others. Conclusion In the past two decades, the research output on anterior shoulder dislocation have been increasing year by year. The focus has gradually shifted to surgical treatment. Surgical treatment may continue to be the research hotspots in this field in the future.

Abstract
Background Anterior shoulder instability is associated with Hill-Sachs lesions (HSLs) in 40% to 90% of cases. When addressing anterior shoulder instability, unaddressed engaging or "off-track" HSL have a recurrence rate of 75%. Remplissage is a known technique to address recurrent instability in the setting of an engaging HSL. In this video, we demonstrate that a double-anchor-pulley technique may be used to address recurrent instability in the setting of engaging HSL. Indications Patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability with off-track HSL in patients with glenoid bone loss <20% are candidates for arthroscopic Remplissage. Technique Description Patients are placed in the lateral decubitus position. Examination under anesthesia is performed to assess for degree of instability and engagement of HSL. Posterior, anterosuperior, and anteroinferior portals are established. Routine diagnostic arthroscopy is performed with identification of the HSL. While viewing from an anterosuperior portal and working through the posterior portal, the HSL bed is prepared with curettage and a bur. A 5.5-mm accessory Cannula is used through an accessory posterior portal. Two knotless all-suture self-tensioning anchors are placed in the anterior and inferior aspect of the defect, passed through the cannula, and tagged for later identification. Bankart stabilization is performed. The knotless anchors are linked to each other to perform a knotless repair with a broad area of compression. Results Results are excellent with only a 5.6% failure rate, significant patient improvement, low complication rate, and 95.5% return to play. Discussion We demonstrate the technical aspects of an all-arthroscopic Remplissage technique using all-suture knotless anchors to provide a simple and reproducible method of performing a Remplissage.

Abstract
A proportion of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability present with bipolar bone loss comprising large Hill-Sachs lesions and substantial glenoid defect. These are surgically difficult cases to treat. We describe a novel surgical procedure of bulk size-matched osteochondral allograft reconstruction for massive Hill-Sachs lesions combined with the Latarjet procedure for these challenging cases.

Arthroscopic Bankart with remplissage results in lower rates of recurrent instability with similar range of motion compared to isolated arthroscopic Bankart for anterior glenohumeral instability: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2024; 32:243-256. [PMID: 38258962 DOI: 10.1002/ksa.12054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The addition of the remplissage procedure to an arthroscopic Bankart procedure has been shown to improve clinical outcomes, yet at the expense of potentially decreasing shoulder range of motion. The purpose of this study was to assess recurrent instability, range of motion, functional outcomes and rates of return to sport outcomes in patients undergoing an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair compared to those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair in addition to the remplissage procedure. METHODS According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a search was conducted using three databases (MEDLINE/OVID, EMBASE and PubMed). Retrieved studies were screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria for comparative studies. Data were extracted and meta-analysis performed using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 16 studies (13 level III studies, 2 level II studies and 1 level I) were included with a total of 507 and 704 patients in the Bankart plus remplissage and isolated Bankart repair groups, respectively. No studies reported glenoid bone loss of >20% with the least percentage of glenoid bone loss reported among studies being <1%. There was a significantly increased rate of recurrent dislocations (odds ratio [OR] = 4.22, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.380-7.48, p < 0.00001) and revision procedures (OR = 3.36, 95% CI: 1.52-7.41, p = 0.003) in the isolated Bankart repair group compared to the Bankart plus remplissage group. Additionally, there were no significant differences between groups in terms of external rotation at side (n.s.), in abduction (n.s.) or at forward flexion (n.s.) at final follow-up. Furthermore, return to preinjury level of sport favoured the Bankart plus remplissage group (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.35-0.85, p = 0.007). CONCLUSION Patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart plus remplissage for anterior shoulder instability have lower rates of recurrent instability, higher rates of return to sport, and no significant difference in range of motion at final follow-up when compared to an isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair. Further large, prospective studies are needed to further determine which patients and degree of bone loss would benefit most from augmentation with the remplissage procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the results of arthroscopic isolated Bankart repair (B) with Bankart repair plus Remplissage (B + R) procedure in contact overhead athletes with on-track anterior shoulder instability. METHODS A total of 64 athletes playing basketball, volleyball and handball in elite professional level who underwent arthroscopic isolated Bankart repair (34 patients) or Bankart repair plus Remplissage procedure (30 patients) with the diagnosis of recurrent anterior shoulder instability between 2017 and 2020, were retrospectively reviewed. Radiologically all patients had on-track Hill-Sachs defects and minimal or subcritical glenoid bone loss (< 13.5%). Patients were evaluated using pre- and postoperative pVAS, SANE, ASES, ROWE, WOSI scores and postoperative active ROM assessment. Patients were also asked for the frequency of any subjective apprehension and satisfaction with the surgery in four grades. RESULTS The mean ages of the groups B and B + R were 26.8 and 26 years (SD = 3.22), respectively; the mean follow-up times were 37.8 and 36.2 months (SD = 11.19). Compared with the preoperative status, there was a statistically significant improvement of all 5 postoperative outcome scores in both groups (P < 0.001). However, significant difference between the improvement of the groups were only found for the SANE (B: 22.3 ± 4.1, B + R: 26.3 ± 4.3; P = 0.0004), ASES (B: 26.1 ± 2.6, B + R: 30.2 ± 3.6; P < 0.001) and ROWE (B: 42 ± 3.7, B + R: 47.7 ± 2.8; P < 0.001) scores in favor of the group B + R. The loss of internal and external rotation of the adducted arm in group B + R was found to be approximately 5 degrees compared to the group B (P < 0.001). More than 80% of group B + R showed no apprehension in sports activities and almost completely returned to pre-injury athletic level, depicting statistically significant improvement compared to group B athletes (P = 0.002 and 0.036, respectively). 3 patients developed re-dislocation after isolated Bankart repair, whereas no re-dislocation occurred in the B + R group. CONCLUSION Adding Remplissage procedure to the Bankart repair provided an advantage in terms of both return to sport at preinjury level and the frequency of apprehension sensation during sports activity.

A comprehensive comparison and evaluation of surgical techniques for anterior shoulder instability: a Bayesian network meta-analysis. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2023; 32:e531-e547.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior shoulder instability is a common clinical problem; however, conflicting evidence exists regarding optimal treatment algorithms. We perform a comparative analysis of stabilization techniques used for recurrent anterior shoulder instability to identify the one associated with the lowest rate of recurrent instability. We additionally explore how glenoid bone loss and osseus lesions affect recurrence rates. METHODS PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched for clinical studies comparing surgical techniques for anterior shoulder instability. Two team members independently assessed all potential studies for eligibility and extracted data. Each included study underwent a risk of bias assessment using the Cochrane risk of bias summary tool. The primary outcome of interest was the rate of recurrent instability, which underwent a Bayesian network meta-analysis. Additional analyses were performed relating to the degree of glenoid bone loss and the presence of osseous lesions. RESULTS Of 2699 studies screened, 52 studies with 4209 patients were included. Patients who underwent open Latarjet demonstrated the overall lowest rate of recurrent instability [log odds ratio (LOR) 1.93], whereas patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair demonstrated the highest (LOR 2.87). When glenoid bone loss was 10% to 20%, open Latarjet had significantly lower recurrent instability (P = .0016) compared to arthroscopic Bankart repair. When glenoid bone loss increased from 0%-10% to 10%-20%, arthroscopic Bankart repair had a significantly increased rate of recurrence (P = .021). In the presence of an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion, both open Latarjet (P = .01) and arthroscopic Bankart with remplissage (P = .029) had significantly reduced recurrence rates compared to arthroscopic Bankart repair. Finally, regardless of procedure, the presence of a Hill-Sachs or bony Bankart lesion was associated with an increased risk of recurrent instability (r = 0.44, P = .0003, and r = 0.40, P = .006, respectively). CONCLUSION The open Latarjet has the overall lowest recurrent instability and significantly lower compared to arthroscopic Bankart repair in the setting of increasing glenoid bone loss. Bone loss between 0% and 10% results in similar outcomes across all procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the practice patterns of Canadian orthopedic surgeons in the management of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability (AGHI). DESIGN Cross-sectional survey. SETTING Canada. PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS Canadian orthopedic surgeons with membership in the Canadian Orthopedic Association or Canadian Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon group who had managed at least 1 patient with AGHI in the previous year. INTERVENTIONS A survey including demographics and questions on the management of patients with AGHI was completed. Statistical comparisons (χ 2 ) were completed with responses stratified using the instability severity index score (ISIS) in practice, years of practice, and surgical volumes. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Summary statistics were compiled, and response frequencies were considered for consensus (75%). Case series responses were stratified on use of the ISIS in practice, years of experience, and annual procedure volumes (χ 2 , P < 0.05). RESULTS Eighty orthopedic surgeons responded, with consensus on areas of diagnostic workup of AGHI, nonoperative management, and operative techniques. There was no consensus on indications for soft tissue and bony augmentation or postoperative management. There was no difference in practices based on the use of ISIS, years in practice, or surgical volumes. CONCLUSIONS Canadian orthopedic surgeons manage AGHI consistently with consensus achieved in preoperative diagnostics and operative techniques, although debate remains as to the indications for soft tissue and bony augmentation procedures.

Abstract
Surgeons are increasingly treating Hill-Sachs lesions arthroscopically by suturing the posterior rotator cuff and capsule into the defect, a procedure known as "remplissage." A number of remplissage techniques have been described in the literature, and these often vary by the number and location of suture anchors. The "triple-double" technique of arthroscopic Hill-Sachs remplissage can be used for larger lesions. This technique utilizes a three-anchor configuration secured by interconnected double-mattress sutures to provide durable fixation through a large contact area between the capsulotenodesis tissue and the prepared bone bed to theoretically optimize healing.

Abstract
Background Recurrent shoulder instability is a debilitating condition that can lead to chronic pain, decreased function, and inability to return to activities or sport. This retrospective epidemiology study was performed to report 90-day postoperative complications and costs of Latarjet, anterior bone block reconstruction, arthroscopic, and open Bankart repair for shoulder instability. Methods Patients 18 years and older who underwent four primary shoulder surgeries from 2010 to 2019 were identified using national claims data. Patient demographics, comorbidities, and 90-day postoperative complications were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression. Total and itemized 90-day reimbursements were determined for each procedure. Results The 90-day medical and surgery-specific complication rates were highest for anterior bone block reconstruction, followed by Latarjet. Arthroscopic Bankart repair had the highest 90-day costs and primary procedure costs compared to other procedures. Conclusion Anterior bone block reconstruction and Latarjet procedures were associated with the highest rates of 90-day medical and surgery-specific complications, while arthroscopic Bankart repair was associated with the highest costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior shoulder instability can result in bone loss of both the anterior glenoid and the posterior humerus. Bone loss has been shown to lead to increased failure postoperatively and may necessitate more complex surgical procedures, resulting in worse clinical outcomes and posttraumatic arthritis. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate predictors of glenoid and humeral head bone loss in patients undergoing surgery for anterior shoulder instability. It was hypothesized that male sex, contact sport participation, traumatic dislocation, and higher number of instability events would be associated with greater bone loss. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A total of 892 patients with anterior shoulder instability were prospectively enrolled in the Multicenter Orthopaedic Outcomes Network (MOON) Shoulder Instability cohort. The presence and amount of anterior glenoid bone loss and accompanying Hill-Sachs lesions were quantified. Descriptive information and injury history were used to construct proportional odds models for the presence of any bone defect, for defects >10% of the anterior glenoid or humeral head, and for combined bony defects. RESULTS Anterior glenoid bone loss and Hill-Sachs lesions were present in 185 (20.7%) and 470 (52.7%) patients, respectively. Having an increased number of dislocations was associated with bone loss in all models. Increasing age, male sex, and non-White race were associated with anterior glenoid bone defects and Hill-Sachs lesions. Contact sport participation was associated with anterior glenoid bone loss, and Shoulder Actitvity Scale with glenoid bone loss >10%. A positive apprehension test was associated with Hill-Sachs lesions. Combined lesions were present in 19.4% of patients, and for every additional shoulder dislocation, the odds of having a combined lesion was 95% higher. CONCLUSION An increasing number of preoperative shoulder dislocations is the factor most strongly associated with glenoid bone loss, Hill-Sachs lesions, and combined lesions. Early surgical stabilization before recurrence of instability may be the most effective method for preventing progression to clinically significant bone loss. Patients should be made aware of the expected course of shoulder instability, especially in athletes at high risk for recurrence and osseous defects, which may complicate care and worsen outcomes.

Abstract
Shoulder instability can occur in any direction and presents across a broad spectrum including traumatic dislocations, repetitive microinstability events or subluxations, and global joint laxity. The development of pain, functional decline, and articular pathologic condition is a multifaceted process that is influenced by the underlying bony morphology, biology of the surrounding soft tissue structures, dynamic coordination of the periscapular musculature, and patient factors such as age, activity level, and associated injuries. This article will focus on the younger, active patient with instability due to deficiencies in the capsulolabral complex and dynamic stabilizers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical management of anterior shoulder instability continues to evolve. The clinical effectiveness of arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (REMP) in patients with increasing glenoid bone loss (GBL) has not been thoroughly compared with Latarjet. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to compare 2-year outcomes of REMP versus open Latarjet in patients with >15% GBL. We hypothesized that there would be no difference. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A multicenter, retrospective study was performed on a consecutive series of patients who underwent primary REMP or Latarjet by 4 shoulder specialists between August 2013 and December 2019 for >15% GBL. Procedure performance was based on shared decision making between the surgeon and patient. Baseline and 2-year postoperative range of motion (ROM) and the following patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were collected: Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, and visual analog scale for pain. Return to sport, satisfaction, complications, recurrence, and revisions were reviewed. RESULTS A total of 47 patients were available for study, including 22 who underwent REMP and 25 who underwent Latarjet. Baseline demographic characteristics, ROM, and PROs were similar between the groups. Mean preoperative GBL (REMP 25.8% ± 7.8% vs Latarjet 25.1% ± 9.0%; P = .800) and off-track lesions (REMP 59.1% vs Latarjet 44.0%; P = .302) were similar. Postoperative change in external rotation favored Latarjet (10° ± 22° vs -4° ± 13°; P = .017). Postoperative PROs, return to the sports (86.4% vs 87.5%; P = .99), and satisfaction (95.5% vs 95.8%; P = .99) were similar between groups. There were no recurrent dislocations in either group. One infected hematoma was encountered in the Latarjet cohort. CONCLUSION At short-term follow-up, the hypothesis was upheld. REMP and Latarjet provided similar outcomes for patients with >15% GBL, although REMP patients experienced slightly decreased external rotation. Although larger series and longer-term follow-ups are required, remplissage may be considered in patients with >15% glenoid bone loss.

Abstract
A 16-year-old right-handed male pitcher had a first-time right anterior shoulder dislocation during a baseball game. X-ray and MRI revealed no apparent glenoid bone loss or Hill-Sachs lesion, but an anterior labroligamentous periosteal sleeve avulsion (ALPSA) lesion with mild posterolateral decompression of the humerus head. His instability severity index score (ISIS score) was 5 with an on-track lesion. He had an arthroscopic Bankart repair using two all-suture anchors and returned to pitching 6 months after the index surgery. However, he had an unstable sensation after 50 pitches during a game one year postoperatively. This time, he presented with a significant Hill-Sachs lesion and a recurrent APLSA lesion. His ISIS score was 6 with an on-tract lesion. During the arthroscopic examination, the previous suture was stable, while anterior capsuloligament tissues were dislodged from sutures, and a Hill-Sachs lesion was observed. This time, a revision arthroscopic Bankart repair and Remplissage procedure were done on him with four double-loaded soft tissue anchors. Pitchers often develop more external rotation in their throwing arm because of a repetitive stretch of the anterior shoulder capsule and ligaments during pitching. The decrease in external rotation after surgery may limit the pitching speed of the pitcher, making a return to play (RTP) more difficult. There is still a paucity of best evidence to revise a failed arthroscopic Bankart repair in the dominant arm of a pitcher. Arthroscopic Bankart repair and Remplissage procedure have gained increasing popularity because they can provide a stable shoulder without harvesting the coracoid. The Latarjet procedure provides a high RTP rate; however, we did not perform it in the revision surgery and decided to revise the Bankart lesion again on its own with a Remplissage procedure, even with his ISIS score being 6 before the revision surgery. A salvage Latarjet procedure is left as a bailout procedure.

Abstract
➢ A Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) is a compression fracture on the posterolateral humeral head that can increase the risk of recurrent shoulder instability after isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair. ➢ Remplissage involves capsulotenodesis of the infraspinatus tendon and posterior capsule into the HSL to prevent its engagement with the glenoid rim through extra-articular conversion and restraint against humeral head anterior translation. ➢ The glenoid track concept can be applied preoperatively and intraoperatively to evaluate risk of recurrence and help direct clinical management options for recurrent shoulder instability. ➢ Recent literature supports expanding indications for remplissage to include patients with on-track HSLs who are at increased risk of recurrence including collision athletes, military personal, and patients with joint hyperlaxity. ➢ New techniques and suture constructs have demonstrated improved biomechanical strength while avoiding the need to access the subacromial space.

The Addition of Remplissage to Free Bone Block Restores Translation and Stiffness Compared to Bone Block Alone or Latarjet in a Bipolar Bone Loss Model. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:2609-2617. [PMID: 35346773 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2022.03.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare glenohumeral stability following a Latarjet, a free bone block (FBB), and a FBB with remplissage for bipolar bone loss. METHODS Nine matched pairs of fresh frozen cadavers were tested in a custom biomechanical apparatus with rotation and progressive translational loading. The free bone block group consisted of a distal tibial allograft with an all-suture tape construct. The Latarjet group was performed with the native coracoid and two partially threaded cannulated screws. A bipolar bone loss model was created with 20% glenoid bone loss and an off-track Hill-Sachs lesion. Testing conditions included the 1) native state, 2) bipolar bone loss model, 3) Latarjet, 4) FBB with distal tibial allograft secured with cerclage sutures, and 5) FBB with remplissage. Each condition was tested for translation, humeral head apex shift, stiffness, and dislocation force. RESULTS There were no differences in translation, stiffness, or dislocation forced between the FBB alone and Latarjet groups. The FBB with remplissage group demonstrated the lowest anterior-inferior translation at 90° of ER, which was statistically significant compared to Latarjet 20N (P = .013) and compared to the FBB alone at 40N (P = .024) and 50N (P = .011). The FBB with remplissage group was significantly stiffer compared to FBB alone at 90° ER with approximately 60% change in stiffness (P = .028). The force required to dislocate the humeral head after treatment was highest in the FBB with remplissage group, which was statistically significant compared to the FBB alone (P = .003) and Latarjet groups (P = .018). CONCLUSION The addition of remplissage to a FBB restores translation and stiffness closer to the intact state compared to a FBB alone or Latarjet in a bipolar bone loss model with an off-track Hill-Sachs lesion. In this model, dislocation force significantly increased with the addition of remplissage to the FBB. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This biomechanical study provides evidence that Latarjet and FBB are both acceptable forms of treatment for bipolar bone loss, but stability can be enhanced with the addition of remplissage following glenoid reconstruction.

Abstract
Purpose Treatment for patients with anterior glenohumeral instability with subcritical bone loss is evolving. The purpose of this study was to compare 2-year outcomes of arthroscopic Bankart repair with and without Hill–Sachs remplissage in patients with <15% glenoid bone loss. Methods A multicenter retrospective study was performed on a consecutive series of patients who underwent primary isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair (IBR) or arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (REMP) by 4 shoulder specialists between 2013 and 2019. Range of motion (ROM) and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were collected at baseline and 2 years postoperative: Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, and visual analog scale for pain. Recurrence, return to sport, satisfaction, complications, and revisions also were reviewed. Results A total of 123 patients were available, including 75 IBR and 48 REMP. Baseline demographics, activity, ROM, and PROs were similar. Mean glenoid bone loss (2.5% vs 6.1%: P < .001) was greater in REMP, although the number of on-track lesions was similar (98.7% vs 93.8%: P = .298). WOSI scores were improved for REMP (196.5 vs 42.7: P = .004), but otherwise no difference in postoperative PROs or ROM. Differences between cohorts did not reach significance in return to sport (73% vs 83%: P = .203), recurrence (9.3% vs 2.1%: P = .148), or revisions (6.8% vs 2.1%: P = .403). For on-track lesions there were 6 recurrences in IBR (6 of 74; 8.1%) and 1 recurrence in REMP (1 of 45; 2.2%). Conclusions Despite slightly worse pathology, patients with subcritical bone loss who undergo REMP experience similar short-term postoperative function to isolated IBR. Recurrence, revision, and return to sport favored REMP but this study was underpowered to show statistical significance. Recurrence was common following IBR, despite subcritical glenoid bone loss and primarily on-track lesions, suggesting that REMP can be considered in on-track lesions.

Abstract
Remplissage is a nonanatomic capsulotenodesis of the infraspinatus tendon used to fill engaging or "off-track" Hill-Sachs lesions in patients at high risk of recurrent instability with isolated Bankart repair. Indications for remplissage are expanding, as the importance of subcritical bone loss and the glenoid track on patient outcomes and recurrence rates continues to be investigated. Remplissage is also suggested in patients at high risk of recurrent instability following isolated anterior labral repair, such as collision and contact athletes with Hill-Sachs lesions that have not reached the threshold of "off track." Multiple arthroscopic remplissage techniques exist including, more recently, knotless techniques.

Abstract
Background Boileau et al have reported on the unstable, painful shoulder (UPS), which was defined as painful shoulders without any recognized anteroinferior subluxations or dislocations that were associated with roll-over lesions (ie, instability lesions) on imaging or at arthroscopy. However, they included various pathologies, probably due to the ambiguity in their definitions of UPS. We redefined UPS as follows: (1) shoulder pain during daily or sports activities, (2) traumatic onset, (3) no complaint of shoulder instability, and (4) soft-tissue or bony lesions, such as Bankart or humeral avulsion of glenohumeral ligament lesion, confirmed by arthroscopy. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively investigate pathologies of UPS based on our definitions. We also aimed to assess the outcomes after arthroscopic soft-tissue stabilization for UPS. Methods We reviewed patients who were retrospectively diagnosed as UPS based on our definition and underwent arthroscopic stabilization between January 2007 and September 2018. Patients' demographics, physical and radiographic findings, intraoperative findings, clinical outcomes (Rowe scores, Subjective Shoulder Value [SSV], and the visual analog scale [VAS] for pain), and return to play sport (RTPS) were investigated. Results This study included 91 shoulders in 91 patients with a mean age of 23 years (range, 15-51). The mean follow-up was 37 months (range, 24-156). Eighty-seven patients were involved in sports activities: collision/contact, 55 patients (60%); overhead, 26 patients (29%). The pain was reproduced during the anterior apprehension test in 86 shoulders (95%). Normal type (49%) predominated in glenoid morphology followed by fragment (bony Bankart) type (37%). Most fragment-type lesions were seen in collision/contact athletes. Intraoperative findings demonstrated that Bankart lesions were found in all patients and Hill-Sachs lesions only in 42%. Magnetic resonance arthrography in the abducted and externally rotated positions showed a Bankart lesion in 76 shoulders (84%). Rowe score, SSV, and pain VAS significantly improved postoperatively (P < .001 for each). Forty-two of 70 athletes (60 %) with > 2-year follow-up returned to the sport at a complete or near-preinjury level. Six (9%) athletes experienced reinjury. Conclusion All shoulders that were diagnosed as UPS with our definition had a Bankart lesion. There seemed to be two different types of pathologies: Bankart lesions in lax shoulders and bony Bankart lesions in collision/contact athletes. The pain experienced during the anterior apprehension test may be useful for the diagnosis of UPS. Arthroscopic soft-tissue stabilization yielded good clinical outcomes with a high RTPS rate, but the reinjury rate was relatively high.

Abstract
The use of arthroscopic Bankart repair to treat anterior shoulder instability has become increasingly widespread. However, high rates of recurrent instability within the presence of glenohumeral bony defects, specifically Hill-Sachs lesions, have well documented a key concern regarding the arthroscopic Bankart repair process. Our technique describes the pairing of a remplissage to fill the Hill-Sachs lesion with the Bankart repair, preventing loss in shoulder stiffness and stability. This technique involves a double-pulley-combined remplissage and Bankart repair to maintain a low-failure, minimally invasive procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Large Hill-Sachs lesions are considered a risk factor for recurrence of instability after arthroscopic Bankart repair alone. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that remplissage is a safe procedure that effectively reduces the risk of recurrent dislocations without causing fatty degeneration of the infraspinatus at medium-term follow-up. METHODS Patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair and remplissage with a minimum 3 years of follow-up were included. Constant-Murley (CMS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), and Walch-Duplay scores were evaluated. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed to detect the appearance of fatty infiltration inside the infraspinatus muscle, the percentage of the Hill-Sachs lesion filled by the tendon and its integration, and the onset of rotator cuff tears. RESULTS Thirteen patients (14 shoulders) with a mean follow-up of 55.93 (± 18.16) months were enrolled. The Walch-Duplay score was 95.00 [87.25-100.00], with a return to sport rate of 100%. Both the CMS and the ASES indicated excellent results. The affected shoulders showed a statistically significant reduction in active external rotation both with the arm at the side (ER1) and with the arm at 90° of abduction (ER2) (p = 0.0005 and p = 0.0010, respectively). A reduction in infraspinatus isometric strength was found for both ER1 and ER2, but this reduction was only statistically relevant in ER2 (p = 0.0342). There was a traumatic recurrence of instability in two cases (14.28%). MRI evaluation demonstrated an absence of adipose infiltration in 50% of cases and only a minimal amount in the remaining 50%. In 12 cases (85.72%), the capsulotenodesis completely filled the lesion and good tendon-bone integration was observed. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic remplissage provided successful clinical outcomes without fatty infiltration of the infraspinatus and with good healing of the tissues. The low risk of recurrence was associated with an objective limitation on active external rotation, but this did not influence the patients' daily or sports activities. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Cohort study, level of evidence 3.

Orthop J Sports Med 2021; 9:23259671211008152. [PMID: 34262976 PMCID: PMC8243109 DOI: 10.1177/23259671211008152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 01/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Different techniques are used for the remplissage procedure, including the
double-pulley and mattress suture techniques. Both techniques have shown
good results; however, it is unclear if one technique is superior. Hypothesis: The remplissage procedure using the double-pulley technique with 2 anchors
would have superior functional and radiological outcomes compared with the
mattress suture technique with a single anchor. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: This study included patients with anterior shoulder instability who were
treated using arthroscopic Bankart repair combined with remplissage between
2012 and 2017. A structured questionnaire was used to gather information on
the following metrics: Instability Severity Index Score, hyperlaxity, Sugaya
index, presence of a Hill-Sachs defect, number of dislocations before
surgery, sports participation, radiological measurement of the Hill-Sachs
lesion, postoperative range of motion in both shoulders, Rowe score,
Walch-Duplay score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and Filling
Index Score of Remplissage grade according to magnetic resonance imaging
scans at the last follow-up. Results: There were 41 patients included with a mean age of 30 ± 7 years who underwent
the Hill-Sachs remplissage procedure using the double-pulley technique with
2 anchors (n = 21; group DA) or the mattress suture technique with a single
anchor (n = 20; group SA). At the final follow-up, there were no significant
differences between the groups regarding the Instability Severity Index
Score (P = .134), the Sugaya index (P =
.538), sports participation (P = .41), the radiological
measurement of the Hill-Sachs lesion (P = .803), or the
Rowe score (P = .182). However, there were significant
differences between the groups in the Walch-Duplay score (P
= .012), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (P =
.005), and Filling Index Score of Remplissage grade (P =
.015), favoring group DA, as well as differences in external rotation in a
neutral position (external rotation loss: 9° ± 3° [group SA] vs 12° ± 3°
[group DA]; P = .003) and at 90° of abduction (external
rotation loss: 8° ± 3° [group SA] vs 11° ± 3° [group DA]; P
= .006), favoring group SA. Conclusion: In the remplissage procedure, the double-pulley technique provided better
filling of the lesion and improvement in functional scores, but external
rotation was limited compared with the mattress suture technique.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare patient-reported and clinic outcomes between arthroscopic Bankart repair with (REMP) and without (NO REMP) arthroscopic infraspinatus remplissage in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability with a Hill-Sachs lesion and minimal glenoid bone loss. METHODS Patients 14 years or older with a recurrent anterior shoulder instability with the presence of an engaging Hill-Sachs defect (of any size) confirmed on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging were eligible to participate. Consented patients were randomized intraoperatively to NO REMP or REMP. Study visits were conducted preoperatively and 3, 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively. The primary outcome was the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability score. Secondary outcomes included incidence of postoperative recurrent shoulder instability, Simple Shoulder Test, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, range of motion, complications, and revision surgery. To compare groups, a mixed-effects linear model was used for continuous variables and a χ2 or Fisher's exact test for categorical data. A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis assessed survival distribution between groups. RESULTS One hundred and eight patients were randomized to Bankart repair with (n = 54) or without (n = 54) remplissage. The mean follow-up was 26.5 months (21-53 months) and 24.3 months (23-64 months) for the REMP and NO REMP groups, respectively. Rates of postoperative recurrent instability were higher (P = .027) in the NO REMP group with 9 of 50 (18%) vs. 2 of 52 (4%) postoperative dislocations in the REMP group. There were no significant differences in patient-reported outcomes between groups at any time point. Survival curve distributions were also significantly different favoring REMP (χ2 = 5.255, P = .022). There was a significant difference in rate of revision surgery between groups with 6 in the NO REMP and none in the REMP groups (P = .029). Post hoc, patients were noted to have a higher risk for re-dislocation if their Hill-Sachs lesion was ≥20 mm in width or ≥15% of humeral head diameter. One intraoperative complication was reported in the REMP group. CONCLUSIONS There is significantly greater risk of postoperative recurrent instability in patients who did not have a remplissage performed in conjunction with an arthroscopic Bankart repair for the treatment of traumatic recurrent anterior shoulder instability with Hill-Sachs lesions of any size and minimal glenoid bone loss (<15%) at 2 years postoperatively. Otherwise, there are no differences in patient-reported outcomes, complications, or shoulder function at 2 years postoperatively. In addition, the remplissage procedure has significantly lower rates of re-dislocation in high-risk patients with Hill-Sachs lesions ≥20 mm and/or ≥15% in size.

Abstract
Remplissage decreases the risk of recurrence after arthroscopic stabilization for recurrent anterior instability. Traditionally, the procedure requires accessing the subacromial space, which adds time and morbidity to the procedure. This Technical Note describes an all-inside technique for knotless remplissage with 2 interconnected anchors. By avoiding knot tying or accessing the subacromial space, the efficiency of the procedure is improved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many surgeons prefer bony stabilization including Bristow or Latarjet procedures for shoulder instability in collision athletes, even though several potential complications have been reported. There has been a limited number of studies on the midterm outcomes of arthroscopic soft tissue stabilization for anterior shoulder instability in competitive collision athletes. PURPOSE To assess the outcomes of arthroscopic soft tissue stabilization in combination with selective augmentation procedures for collision athletes with traumatic anterior shoulder instability. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS We retrospectively assessed rugby or American football players (<40 years old) who underwent arthroscopic Bankart or bony Bankart repair with selective augmentations (rotator interval closure and/or Hill-Sachs remplissage) for traumatic anterior shoulder instability between January 2012 and March 2017. Shoulders that required other bony procedures were excluded. Recurrence, complications, return to sport, and functional scores (Rowe score and Subjective Shoulder Value sports score) were investigated. RESULTS This study included 113 shoulders in 100 patients with a mean age of 20 years (range, 15-36 years) at surgery. Rotator interval closure was performed on 36 shoulders in addition to Bankart repair, and rotator interval closure and Hill-Sachs remplissage were performed on 77 shoulders. The mean follow-up period was 44 months (range, 24-72 months). Of the 113 shoulders, 4 (3.5%) experienced postoperative dislocation, but there were no complications. A total of 93 athletes (93%) attained complete or near complete preinjury sports activity levels. The mean Rowe score significantly improved from 36 (range, 10-75) at presurgery to 96 (range, 35-100; P = .003) at postsurgery. The mean Subjective Shoulder Value sports score significantly improved after surgery, from a mean preoperative score of 22 (range, 0-50) to a postoperative score of 92 (range, 64-100; P = .002). CONCLUSION Our treatment strategy, where arthroscopic soft tissue stabilization was combined with selected augmentations, provided good clinical outcomes for competitive collision athletes in terms of low rates of recurrence and complication, a high rate of return to sports, and good shoulder function.

Abstract
Background: Although Bankart repair with remplissage is commonly performed to treat anterior shoulder instability, there is limited information on specific outcomes or patients’ fears regarding return to sports (RTS). Purpose: To study recurrence rates, pain, shoulder function, active range of motion (ROM), RTS rate, and patients’ fears and expectations for RTS after arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage for anterior shoulder instability. We compared these outcomes with those after Bankart repair alone. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was carried out between 2007 and 2017 among patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (group BR) and Bankart repair alone (group B). At the final follow-up, outcomes including recurrence, pain, shoulder function, active ROM, RTS rate, and fear toward RTS were assessed. The specific outcomes for RTS were evaluated based on 3 levels: return to normal life, RTS at any level (RTSA), and RTS at previous level (RTSP). Results: A total of 70 patients were included (29 in group BR and 41 in group B) with a mean 67.2 months of follow-up. Group BR demonstrated a significantly lower recurrence rate than did group B (0 vs 22.0%, respectively; P = .007) as well as higher postoperative Rowe score (92.8 ± 7.1 vs 83.3 ± 16.2, respectively; P = .005). There were no differences between the groups in postoperative visual analog scale for pain score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, Oxford Shoulder Instability Score, or active ROM. The rates of RTSA (100% vs 84.2%; P = .03) and RTSP (77.8% vs 50.0%; P = .02) were higher in group BR than in group B, respectively, and significantly fewer patients in group BR reported fear of RTS (40.7% vs 63.2%; P = .04). Conclusion: In this study, recurrence rate, pain, shoulder function, active ROM, and RTS rate were satisfactory after arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage. Patients who underwent this procedure reported less fear toward RTS and higher rates of RTSA and RTSP than did those who undergo Bankart repair alone.

Abstract
Purpose To characterize the morphology of the infraspinatus (IS) tendon and evaluate the bony anatomy of the humeral head (HH) to determine if there is a correlation between HH measurements and the amount of available IS tendon. Methods The superior-inferior width as well as the medial-lateral (M-L) length of the inferior and superior portions of the IS tendon were measured in 15 human cadaveric shoulders. Three measurements were then obtained for each corresponding humeral head: (1) anterior to posterior (A-P) distance, (2) midcoronal humeral head distance (MCHH), and (3) M-L distance. Pearson correlation coefficients (R) of tendon measurements relative to HH measurements were determined. Results The mean ± SD HH measurements were 44.3 ± 3.3 mm for A-P, 49.3 ± 3.4 mm at the MCHH, and 52.2 ± 3.4 mm in the M-L plane. The mean M-L length of the superior portion of the IS tendon was significantly different from the inferior portion (42.4 vs 31.0 mm, P < .0001). The mean ± SD width of the IS tendon was 19.4 ± 3.0mm. There was a statistically significant correlation (R = 0.58) between the M-L length of the superior IS tendon relative to the M-L HH distance (P < .05) and the A-P HH distance (P < .05). Conclusions The superior M-L IS tendon length was significantly greater than the inferior M-L length. The M-L HH and the AP HH distances were significantly correlated to the M-L length of the superior portion of the IS tendon. These relationships may provide an estimation of the length of available IS tendon to help guide the management of Hill-Sachs lesions (HSLs). Clinical Relevance Knowledge of the available IS length can help optimize the management of HSLs following anterior shoulder dislocation. If IS tendon M-L length is less than HSL M-L length, then remplissage may result in capsulomyodesis rather than tenodesis. Placement of the superior anchor in a position that is as superior as possible within the HSL defect will maximize the opportunity for IS tenodesis.

Abstract
Background Latarjet has become a common treatment option for patients with shoulder instability in the setting of bone loss. The coracoid is commonly secured with screws Methods All patients who underwent Latarjet with suture-button fixation with minimum 1-year follow-up were eligible for inclusion. Preoperative demographic and clinical outcome data including American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Single Assessment Numerical Evaluation (SANE), and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) were recorded and compared with postoperative scores. Radiographs were reviewed for signs of nonunion. Complications were recorded. Results Overall 21 patients (76% male, average age: 30.4 ± 11.3 years) underwent Latarjet with suture-button fixation. Significant improvements at 1 year were seen in ASES (P < 0.001), SANE (P < 0.001), and VAS (P = 0.011) scores compared with preoperative scores. Of the 21 patients who had reached 1-year follow-up, 17 (81%) reached 2-year follow-up. For the 17 patients who reached 2-year follow-up, there were significant improvements in ASES (P = 0.001), SANE (P = 0.001), and VAS (P = 0.005) scores from preoperative values. When isolating the 17 patients with 2-year follow-up, there were no significant differences between their 1-year and 2-year ASES (P = 0.73), SANE (P = 0.17), and VAS (P = 0.37) scores. Overall, 3 patients (14%) sustained a complication (one redislocation, one with coracoid migration and a fibrous union, and one superior labral tear requiring biceps tenodesis and superior labral repair). Conclusion Suture-button fixation of the coracoid during the Latarjet provides encouraging clinical and radiographic outcomes at 1 and 2 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine how intraoperative assessment (engagement test) may affect recurrent dislocation rate and to compare the clinical outcomes, recurrence rates, and presence of on-/off-track conditions between cases that received arthroscopic Bankart repair alone (nonengaged Hill-Sachs lesion) and Bankart repair with remplissage (engaged Hill-Sachs lesion). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 213 patients who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair alone (186 patients with nonengaging lesions, group A) or with remplissage (27 patients with engaging lesion, group B) for recurrent anterior shoulder instability with <25% glenoid bone defect. The presence of an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion was determined during arthroscopic evaluation. On-track or off-track lesions were assessed retrospectively from preoperative 3-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT). RESULTS Mean glenoid bone defect was 13.7% in group A and 20.7% in group B (P < .001). Off-track lesions were identified in 8.1% (15/186) and 100% (27/27) in group B. At the final follow-up (minimum 2 years; mean follow-up periods after surgery of 50.1 months in group A and 47.7 months in group B), there were no significant differences in shoulder functional scores and recurrence rates between groups, despite improvement after surgery. In the off-track lesion (group A-1: nonengaging but off-track lesion), recurrence instability occurred in 9 patients (60%, 9/15). Also, comparing group A-1 and group B, we noted significant differences in shoulder functional scores and recurrence rates (P < .001). CONCLUSION Of 186 patients, 8.1% with nonengaging Hill-Sachs lesions during direct arthroscopic examination under anesthesia actually demonstrated off-track lesions on preoperative 3D CT scans retrospectively, with 60% experiencing recurrent instability. Intraoperative manual assessment for Hill-Sachs engagement was inferior to 3D CT scan in establishing the presence of off-track defects. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the current evidence in the literature to determine how arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) and remplissage compare with ABR alone and the open Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder instability in patients with concomitant Hill-Sachs lesions. METHODS A literature search was performed based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) guidelines. Studies comparing ABR and remplissage vs. ABR alone or the Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder instability in patients with Hill-Sachs lesions were included. Clinical outcomes were compared, with all statistical analysis performed using Review Manager (version 5.3). P < .05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Twelve clinical trials were included. There was a significant difference between ABR plus remplissage and ABR alone in total recurrence rate (3.2% vs. 16.8%, P < .05) but not the rate of revision due to recurrence (1.7% vs. 8.5%, P = .06). There was no significant difference between the Latarjet procedure and ABR plus remplissage in total recurrence rate (7.0% vs. 9.8%, P = .39), total revision rate (3.7% vs. 5.7%, P = .41), and rate of revision due to recurrence (1.6% vs. 2.1%, P = .79). There was a significantly lower rate of complications with ABR and remplissage compared with the Latarjet procedure (0.5% vs. 8.6%, P = .003). CONCLUSION In patients with Hill-Sachs lesions and subcritical glenoid bone loss, ABR with remplissage resulted in lower rates of recurrent instability compared with ABR alone while resulting in similar recurrence rates, as well as similar patient-reported outcomes, with lower morbidity and fewer complications, compared with the Latarjet procedure.

Abstract
Recurrent anterior shoulder instability is a multifactorial problem for which many solutions exist. Often, the bony surface area of the humeral head and the glenoid needs to be addressed surgically. For large, engaging humeral head defects associated with <25% glenoid bone loss, a remplissage procedure can effectively "fill in" the humeral defect with minimal postoperative morbidity. Remplissage is an effective biological solution that should be considered any time there is a humeral head defect which is contributing to glenohumeral instability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A large engaging Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) with subcritical glenoid bone loss (GBL) is approached through either increasing the glenoid arc by the Latarjet procedure or converting the HSL to an extra-articular defect by arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (BRR). Until now, there has been no evidence-based consensus about which of these 2 most appropriate procedures is the better surgical choice. The purpose of this study was to analyze the current literature comparing results of BRR vs. the Latarjet procedure in the treatment of engaging HSLs with subcritical GBL. METHODS A comprehensive review of the PubMed and Cochrane databases was completed for studies that compared the clinical outcomes and complications of BRR vs. the Latarjet procedure with minimum follow-up of 2 years. The outcome measures analyzed included postoperative Rowe score, visual analog scale pain score, postoperative range of motion (ROM), and rates of recurrent instability and other complications. RESULTS Overall, 4 articles (level III evidence in 3 and level II in 1) were included from an initial 804 abstracts. The study population consisted of a total of 379 patients, of whom 194 underwent BRR and 185 underwent the Latarjet procedure. There were no unacceptable differences in baseline characteristics between the 2 groups. For the rate of recurrent instability, both groups had comparable risk ratios (RRs) (N = 379; RR, 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.37-1.41). The risk of other complications was significantly increased with the Latarjet procedure (by about 7 times) relative to the the BRR procedure (N = 379; RR, 7.37; 95% CI, 2-27). Both groups had comparable postoperative Rowe scores (n = 190; mean difference [MD], -0.9; 95% CI, -3.45 to 1.7) and visual analog scale pain scores (n = 347; MD, -0.2; 95% CI, -0.6 to 0.2). Moreover, both groups had comparable postoperative external rotation ROM (MD, -1.7°; 95% CI, -9.4° to 6°) and internal rotation ROM (MD, 1.95°; 95% CI, -5.35° to 9.25°). There was substantial heterogeneity in the effect of both procedures on postoperative pain and ROM (external rotation and internal rotation). CONCLUSION Both the BRR and Latarjet procedures are effective for the management of engaging HSLs with subcritical GBL and give comparable clinical outcomes. However, given the fewer overall postoperative complications, remplissage may be safer. The results of the included studies were adequately consistent for most analyzed outcomes. However, for the intervention effect on postoperative pain and ROM, there was a small body of evidence, limiting the strength of the reported conclusions.

Abstract
Primary arthroscopic Bankart repair is a common procedure that is increasing in popularity; however, failure rates can approach up to 6% to 30%. Factors commonly attributed to failure include repeat trauma, poor or incomplete surgical technique, humeral and/or glenoid bone loss, hyperlaxity, or a failure to identify and address rare pathology such as a humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament lesion. A thorough clinical and radiographic assessment may provide insight into the etiology, which can assist the clinician in making treatment recommendations. Surgical management of a failed primary arthroscopic Bankart repair without bone loss can include revision arthroscopic repair or open repair; however, in the setting of bone loss, the anterior-inferior glenoid can be reconstructed using a coracoid transfer, tricortical iliac crest, or structural allograft, whereas posterolateral humeral head bone loss (the Hill-Sachs defect) can be addressed with remplissage, structural allograft, or partial humeral head implant. In addition to the technical demands of revision stabilization surgery, patient and procedure selection to optimize outcomes can be challenging. This review will focus on the etiology, evaluation, and management of patients after a failed primary arthroscopic Bankart repair, including an evidence-based treatment algorithm.

Abstract
CONTEXT Bone loss is a major factor in determining surgical choice in patients with anterior glenohumeral instability. Although bone loss has been described, there is no consensus on glenoid, humeral head, and bipolar bone loss limits for which arthroscopic-only management with Bankart repair can be performed. OBJECTIVE To provide guidelines for selecting a more complex repair or reconstruction (in lieu of arthroscopic-only Bankart repair) in the setting of glenohumeral instability based on available literature. DATA SOURCES An electronic search of the literature for the period from 2000 to 2019 was performed using PubMed (MEDLINE). STUDY SELECTION Studies were included if they quantified bone loss (humeral head or glenoid) in the setting of anterior instability treated with arthroscopic Bankart repair. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4. DATA EXTRACTION Study design, level of evidence, patient demographics, follow-up, recurrence rates, and measures of bone loss (glenoid, humeral head, bipolar). RESULTS A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 10 measured glenoid bone loss, 5 measured humeral head bone loss, and 2 measured "tracking" without explicit measurement of humeral head bone loss. Measurement techniques for glenoid and humeral head bone loss varied widely. Recommendations for maximum glenoid bone loss for arthroscopic repair were largely <15% of glenoid width in recent studies. Recommendations regarding humeral head loss were more variable (many authors providing only qualitative descriptions) with increasing attention on glenohumeral tracking. CONCLUSION It is essential that a standardized method of glenoid and humeral head bone loss measurements be performed preoperatively to assess which patients will have successful stabilization after arthroscopic Bankart repair. Glenoid bone loss should be <15%, and humeral head lesions should be "on track" if an arthroscopic-only Bankart is planned. If there is greater bone loss, adjunct or open procedures should be performed.

Arthroscopic stabilisation for shoulder instability. J Clin Orthop Trauma 2020; 11:S402-S411.

Abstract
Since its first description over 30 years ago arthroscopic stabilisation has evolved. With improvements in knowledge, surgical techniques and materials technology, arthroscopic bankart repair has become the most widely used method for treating patients with symptomatic anterior shoulder instability. These procedures are typically performed in a younger, high demand patient population after a primary dislocation or to treat recurrent instability. A thorough clinical evaluation is required in the clinic setting not only to fully understand the injury pattern but also consider patient expectations prior to embarking on surgery. Diagnostic imaging will aid the clinician in determining the soft tissue pathology as well as assessing bone loss, which facilitates surgical decision-making. Selected patients may benefit from adjunctive procedures such as a remplissage for an "engaging" Hill-sachs lesion. This review will focus on the indications, pre-operative considerations, surgical techniques and outcomes of arthroscopic stabilisation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Engaging Hill-Sachs lesions in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation have been managed with the remplissage procedure. Clinical and cadaveric studies have reported limitation of rotation after this procedure. We introduce the reverse McLaughlin procedure where the infraspinatus and the underlying capsule are detached and approximated into the Hill-Sachs defect with transosseous sutures. This is a preliminary report using this technique. METHODS Seventeen patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations and an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion underwent a Bankart repair and remplissage procedure (n = 9) or the reverse McLaughlin procedure ( n = 8). Patients were evaluated using the SF-36, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), and Constant scores. Clinical assessment of the shoulders was also performed. RESULTS At the final follow-up, all patients in both groups achieved comparable clinical outcome scores. No significant differences were reported in the range of motion of the shoulders between the two groups. There was one dislocation of the operated shoulder in each group after an injury. CONCLUSION The reverse McLaughlin procedure for engaging Hill-Sachs lesions is simple, easy to perform, and associated with functional outcomes and range of motion at least equivalent to those obtained via the remplissage technique. It may be an alternative to the latter procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III, Retrospective Comparative Study.

Abstract
CASE The authors report a case of recurrent anterior shoulder instability in a 19-year-old man. Intraoperative arthroscopic examination identified Bankart and engaging Hill-Sachs lesions. The patient was treated with humeral head osteochondral allograft reconstruction and concomitant arthroscopic anterior stabilization. At the 14-year follow-up, there was no recurrent instability. CONCLUSION Humeral head osteochondral allograft reconstruction combined with an arthroscopic anterior stabilization procedure can be successful for recurrent shoulder instability and engaging Hill-Sachs lesion.

Abstract
The glenohumeral joint is prone to instability. Patients with instability should have a physical examination. Imaging studies can provide additional information. Classification schemes that into account soft tissue pathology, neuromuscular control, bone loss, and activity level. An arthroscopic Bankart repair is the mainstay for unidirectional instability. Bone block procedures are indicated for patients with bone loss or a failed attempt at stabilization surgery. The arthroscopic Latarjet is a promising option for these patients. For patients with multidirectional instability, prolonged rehabilitation is indicated, followed by capsular plication or inferior capsular shift if instability is unresponsive to physical therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients who have undergone shoulder instability surgery are often allowed to return to sports, work, and high-level activity based largely on a time-based criterion of 6 months postoperatively. However, some believe that advancing activity after surgery should be dependent on the return of strength and range of motion (ROM). HYPOTHESIS There will be a significant loss of strength or ROM at 6 months after arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage compared with Bankart repair alone. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. METHODS A total of 38 patients in a prospective multicenter study underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage (33 males, 5 females; mean age, 27.0 ± 10.2 years; 82% with ≥2 dislocation events in the past year). Strength and ROM were assessed preoperatively and at 6 months after surgery. Results were compared with 104 matched patients who had undergone Bankart repair without remplissage, although all had radiographic evidence of a Hill-Sachs defect. RESULTS At 6 months, there were no patients in the remplissage group with anterior apprehension on physical examination. However, 26% had a ≥20° external rotation (ER) deficit with the elbow at the side, 42% had a ≥20° ER deficit with the elbow at 90° of abduction, and 5% had persistent weakness. Compared with matched patients who underwent only arthroscopic Bankart repair, the remplissage group had greater humeral bone loss and had a greater likelihood of a ≥20° ER deficit with the elbow at 90° of abduction (P = .004). Risk factors for a ≥20° ER deficit with the elbow at 90° of abduction were preoperative stiffness in the same plane (P = .02), while risk factors for a ≥20° ER deficit with the elbow at the side were increased number of inferior quadrant glenoid anchors (P = .003), increased patient age (P = .02), and preoperative side-to-side deficits in ER (P = .04). The only risk factor for postoperative ER weakness was preoperative ER weakness (P = .04), with no association with remplissage (P = .26). CONCLUSION Arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage did not result in significant strength deficits but increased the risk of ER stiffness in abduction compared with Bankart repair without remplissage at short-term follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this work is to report mid- to long-term clinical results, recurrence rates and instability following surgery to repair anterior dislocation of the shoulder by the remplissage technique. METHODS This was a retrospective case series at a single center with patients with anterior shoulder instability that received surgery using the remplissage technique. Rowe questionnaire, instability complaints, recurrence episodes and return to sport were analyzed. RESULTS Of all patients screened, 21 (92.3%) were enrolled and only 2 patients were lost to follow-up. The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 27.8y.o., and the mean number of dislocations before surgery was 3.2 episodes. The follow-up average was 83.8 months (range 28-126). No case of postoperative infection was observed. Two patients (9.5%) had recurrent shoulder instability and required reintervention after 18 and 48 months. The average final Rowe score was 92.9 (range 75-100). All patients that played sports before surgery returned to the sport, and 73.7% of them returned to the same activity level. CONCLUSION The remplissage technique applied to repair anterior shoulder dislocation with humeral bone loss presents good results regarding clinical scores, shoulder stability and acceptable rates of return to sports, even in a mid- to long-term follow-up.

Abstract
Recurrent shoulder instability complicated by capsular insufficiency due to underlying soft-tissue disorders or multiple prior failed surgical procedures poses a challenging surgical problem. Traditional capsulolabral soft-tissue reconstruction techniques are less effective in this setting, and bony procedures sacrifice normal anatomic relations. The described arthroscopic technique aims to prevent instability while maintaining range of motion through creation of a soft-tissue allograft "sling" augmenting the posterior glenohumeral capsule.

Abstract
Background: With the rise of adolescent sports participation, there has been a concomitant increase in not only the incidence but also the treatment of traumatic shoulder instability. Yet, there have been limited data on the failure rates of arthroscopic shoulder stabilization in this population as well as the potential risk factors. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to determine the failure rates of adolescent patients who underwent arthroscopic labral reconstruction for traumatic anterior shoulder instability. We hypothesized that adolescent failure rates would be significantly higher than what has been reported in the adult population with regard to recurrent instability after surgical intervention. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study performed at a single center. Inclusion criteria consisted of all adolescent-aged patients identified who (1) had traumatic anterior shoulder instability, (2) had radiographic findings consistent with anteroinferior capsulolabral injury, and (3) underwent arthroscopic shoulder stabilization. Patient demographics, clinical presentation, imaging, intraoperative findings, and postoperative outcomes were analyzed. Results: A total of 36 patients were identified, with a mean ± SD follow-up of 35.6 ± 13.8 months. The mean patient age at the time of the index procedure was 16.03 ± 1.67 years. All patients underwent arthroscopic shoulder stabilization consisting of arthroscopic Bankart repair. Twelve patients (33.3%) reported either recurrent instability or apprehension, of whom 9 (25.0%) developed recurrent dislocation/subluxation at a mean of 20.67 months postoperatively (range, 16-51 months). No single sport was associated with a statistically significant increased risk of redislocation, although a trend was seen toward those with postoperative participation in high-risk sporting activity. Patients who redislocated their shoulders had a higher frequency of a Hill-Sachs lesion on magnetic resonance imaging (89%) compared with those who did not (52%, P = .048). History of multiple preoperative dislocations, presence of bony Bankart pathology, off-track lesions, and number of anchors utilized were not associated with postoperative dislocation/subluxation. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that adolescent patients treated with arthroscopic shoulder stabilization have a high rate of recurrent instability. The adolescent population may benefit from other stabilization strategies and/or activity modification. Further studies are necessary to determine the reasons for the high rate of redislocation and to develop strategies for prevention.
