Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this review was to compare clinical outcomes, return to sport (RTS), and complications in comparative studies examining patients undergoing primary Latarjet procedure versus Latarjet in the revision setting following soft tissue stabilization. METHODS A literature search was conducted using PubMed and Scopus databases using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Meta-Analyses guidelines. Inclusion criteria consisted of level I to III human clinical studies reporting clinical outcomes (Visual Analogue Pain Scale [VAS]), RTS metrics, and complications in patients following primary versus revision Latarjet procedures. Study quality was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria. RESULTS A total of seven studies, consisting of 1170 patients (n=1179 shoulders) with a mean age of 26.4 years, consisting of 91.9% males (n=1083/1179 shoulders), were identified. Mean final follow-up was 46.4 (mean range, 7.3-72.2) months. A total of 748 primary and 431 revision Latarjet procedures were analyzed. Complications were reported in 9.6% (range, 0%-24.2%) of patients undergoing primary and 20.2% (range, 0%-40.7%) in patients undergoing revision procedures (p=0.22). There was no significant difference in the RTS rate between patients undergoing primary (87.3%; range, 83.8%-92.1%) versus Latarjet as a revision procedure (78.9%; range, 60%-100%) (p=0.08). Moreover, no significant difference in postoperative VAS was observed in patients undergoing primary versus Latarjet as a revision procedure (p=0.21). Recurrent shoulder subluxation was significantly greater in patients undergoing revision (12.0%; n=31/259 shoulders; range, 0%-20.7%) compared to primary procedures (3.3%; n=27/511 shoulders; range, 0%-9%) (p<0.001). DISCUSSION Patients undergoing primary and revision Latarjet demonstrated overall similar rates of complications and return to sport. Of clinical importance, Latarjet as a revision procedure possessed a risk of recurrent subluxation 3.6 times higher than primary Latarjet. While effective, patients should be counseled regarding the differing prognosis between Latarjet as a primary or revision procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared with the Latarjet procedure, the Bristow procedure has a lower screw-related complication rate but poor bone healing. A modified Inlay Bristow procedure has been reported to significantly improve the bone healing rate, but the biomechanical mechanism is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical stability of the bone graft between a modified Inlay Bristow procedure and the classic Bristow procedure. METHODS Sixteen left scapula models (Sawbones, Composite Scapula, and fourth generation) were randomly divided into 2 groups (8:8). The bone graft in the first group was fixed with a 3.5 mm screw using the Inlay structure. The bone graft in the second group was fixed with a 3.5 mm screw via the traditional method. The maximum cyclic displacement, ultimate failure load and stiffness were evaluated biomechanically. The failure type was recorded for each model. RESULTS Cyclic loading tests demonstrated that the maximum cyclic displacement of the Inlay procedure was significantly smaller (P = .001) than that of the classic procedure. The Inlay Bristow technique resulted in a significantly higher (P = .024) ultimate failure load than the classic Bristow technique. The stiffness of the classic group was 19.17 ± 4.01 N/mm and that of the inlay group was 22.34 ± 5.35 N/mm (P = .232). Failure was mainly due to bone graft fractures through the drill hole or glenoid bone fractures. CONCLUSION Inlay Bristow fixation of the bone graft in a Sawbones model provides significantly stronger fixation and better time point zero stability than classic Bristow fixation, suggesting a higher likelihood of graft union.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The maximum bone length available for coracoid process transfer varies among individuals, while no preoperative guideline has been developed for predicting the safety margin (SM) in Latarjet shoulder reconstruction. The aim of the study was to evaluate the 3D MRI proton density (PD)-weighted sampling perfection with application-optimized contrasts using different flip-angle evolution (SPACE) sequence in preoperatively predicting SM for coracoid transfer. METHODS The post-multiplanar reconstructed images were obtained from 24 volunteers (17 males, seven females) to determine the clarity and sensitivity of the PD-SPACE-COR and PD-SPACE-FS-COR protocols. Furthermore, the distance from the coracoid tip to the lateral edge of the attachment of trapezoid ligament (TL) was measured. To evaluate the accuracy of 3D MRI prediction, a cadaveric cohort has been launched in 32 shoulders (nine males, seven females). The distance between the tip of coracoid process and the outmost edge of TL footprint, namely, the SM, was measured. RESULTS A better sensitivity was found in PD-SPACE-COR in detecting coracoclavicular ligaments (CCLs), including TL and conoid ligament (CL), compared to PD-SPACE-FS-COR by ranking, McNemar test (P = 0.001), and kappa coefficients (κ = 0.51, P = 0.43). The SM determined by the PD-SPACE-COR protocol was 24.28 ± 2.17 mm while that by cadaveric morphometry was 25.53 ± 2.84 mm. No difference was found between measurements (P = 0.78). CONCLUSION This research provides new insights for preoperatively geometrical planning coracoid transfer by 3D MRI PD-SPACE-COR, which motivates personalized medicine in orthopedics.

Abstract
Background Revision surgery after the Latarjet procedure is a rare and challenging surgical problem, and various bony or capsular procedures have been proposed. This systematic review examines clinical and radiographic outcomes of different procedures for treating persistent pain or recurrent instability after a Latarjet procedure. Methods A systematic review of the literature was performed using the Medline, Cochrane, EMBASE, Google Scholar and Ovid databases with the combined keywords “failed”, “failure”, “revision”, “Latarjet”, “shoulder stabilization” and “shoulder instability” to identify articles published in English that deal with failed Latarjet procedures. Results A total of 11 studies (five retrospective and six case series investigations), all published between 2008 and 2020, fulfilled our inclusion criteria. For the study, 253 patients (254 shoulders, 79.8% male) with a mean age of 29.6 years (range: 16–54 years) were reviewed at an average follow-up of 51.5 months (range: 24–208 months). Conclusions Eden–Hybinette and arthroscopic capsuloplasty are the most popular and safe procedures to treat recurrent instability after a failed Latarjet procedure, and yield reasonable clinical outcomes. A bone graft procedure and capsuloplasty were proposed but there was no clear consensus on their efficacy and indication.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evaluate complications in correlation with radiological findings after an open Latarjet procedure performed on 140 shoulders with recurrent anterior instability with follow-up from 8 to 174 months. METHODS Retrospectively, 140 shoulders, diagnosed with recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability, which were surgically treated with the open Latarjet procedure in our hospital, between January 2004 and November 2017, had been analysed. Mean age of operated patients was 29.5 years. One hundred and twenty-three patients were male (88.5%) and 16 were female (11.5%). Average length of follow-up was 110 months. Radiographs and CT scans of 16 patients with complications had been evaluated and correlations between radiological findings and observed complications had been analysed. RESULTS Complications occurred in 16 shoulders (11%). Rates of individual complications were: 1. persistent pain (9%), 2. limited ROM (7%), 3. recurrent instability (6%), 4. neurologic injury (2%), 5. persistent apprehension (2%), 6. reduced strength (2%), 7. hematoma (1%) and 8. intraoperative coracoid graft fracture (0.8%). Mean postoperative ASES score and ROWE score were statistically significantly lower in the group with complications, compared to the group without complications. Good or excellent results were reported by 87.9% patients. CONCLUSION Open Latarjet procedure is an effective and safe method for the treatment of recurrent shoulder instability, resulting in good to excellent outcomes in 87.9% of our cases. However, it is related to a higher postoperative complication rate compared to some other treatment options. Overall, very good results with high level of patient satisfaction have been demonstrated.

Abstract
Arthroscopic Latarjet is a relatively new, but viable option for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability. Arthroscopic Latarjet has the advantage of faster recovery, reduced stiffness, identification of additional shoulder pathology, and improved cosmesis when compared with open Latarjet. By the majority of clinical and radiographic parameters, arthroscopic Latarjet produces equivalent outcomes compared with open Latarjet. A relatively substantial learning curve for arthroscopic Latarjet exists at about 25 cases; however, multiple studies have demonstrated comparable outcomes and surgical time after the learning curve.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence that the Latarjet procedure has a worse outcome as a revision operation, after a failed stabilization surgery, compared with when it is the primary procedure for posttraumatic anteroinferior instability of the shoulder joint. PURPOSE To compare the results from Latarjet as a primary operation vs. revision surgery after a failed arthroscopic Bankart repair for posttraumatic anteroinferior shoulder instability. In addition, to assess the effect of preoperative bony pathology on outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety-nine patients who underwent the Latarjet procedure (47 primary, 52 revision after failed Bankart repair) were analyzed after an average of 3.8 (SD 2.3, range 1-11) years of follow-up. All patients underwent either computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging preoperatively. Glenoid and humeral bone defects were measured to assess whether the Hill-Sachs lesion was on- or off-track. Clinical outcome measures included the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), subjective shoulder value (SSV), and recurrence of instability (dislocation, subluxation, or any perception of instability). RESULTS There were no cases of recurrent dislocation in either group. Four patients in the primary surgery group and 13 in the revision group had at least one subluxation or perception of instability after the Latarjet procedure. Patients with a previous arthroscopic Bankart repair had worse outcomes than those undergoing primary Latarjet when assessed by the WOSI: 76 (SD 22) vs. 85 (SD 15), difference in means -9 (95% CI -17 to -1, p=0.02); SSV: 80 (SD 18) vs. 88 (SD 13), difference in means -8 (95% CI -15 to -2, p=0.01); and the recurrence percentage (25% vs. 9%, p=0.03). A multivariate linear regression model adjusted for the length of follow-up, glenoid bone defect size, Hill-Sachs lesion size, and the frequency of preoperative bipolar bone defects (on/off track Hill-Sachs lesions) further increased the difference in WOSI to -12 (95% CI -21 to -4, p=0.005). DISCUSSION A previous failed arthroscopic Bankart repair was a significant independent risk factor for inferior outcome. Preoperative bony pathology did not explain the worse outcome from the revision vs. primary Latarjet procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, cohort observational study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The coracoid transfer represents a treatment option for patients with recurrent shoulder instability. Only a few studies exist about the complication rate of the coracoid transfer as a revision surgery following failed soft tissue stabilization. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results and complication rate after coracoid transfer as a revision surgery. METHODS In this study 38 patients (4 females, 34 males, mean age 27 years) were included of whom 29 patients were available for follow-up after a mean of 27 months. Previous shoulder stabilization procedures were predominantly arthroscopic (n = 25). Complications were divided according to their timely appearance into early (< 3 months) and late (> 3 months) postoperatively as well as need for revision. Clinical scores [Constant Score (CS), Rowe Score (RS), Walch-Duplay-Score (WDS), WOSI and Subjective-Shoulder-Value (SSV)] were evaluated preoperatively and at final follow-up. RESULTS In this patient cohort, the overall complication rate was 27.6%, all of them occurred > 3 months postoperatively. In seven of eight cases (24.1%) a repeat surgical procedure was conducted. Recurrent instability occurred in three patients (10.3%) of which two received a revision surgery (n = 1 iliac-crest bone graft, n = 1 labral repair). Due to persistent pain five patients underwent an arthroscopic implant removal. The complication rate was with 40% higher in patients with two or more previous surgeries (n = 4 out of 10 patients) compared to patients with one previous surgery (21%, n = 4 out of 19 patients). The scores increased significantly comparing pre- to postoperative [CS 74-90 points, RS 27-91 points, WDS 16-89 points, WOSI 40-76% and SSV 41-82% (p < 0.05)]. CONCLUSION The open coracoid transfer as a revision surgery after failed soft tissue stabilization leads to satisfying clinical results. However, the complication rate is high though comparable to data in the literature when used as a primary surgery. The indication for a coracoid transfer should be judged carefully and possible alternatives should be considered.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the bone length available for coracoid transfer without coracoclavicular ligament injury and the distance from the coracoid tip to the attachments of the coracoacromial ligament or pectoralis minor. We hypothesized that cadaver height and the soft tissue attachments on the coracoid process were predictive factors for sufficient bone length for coracoid transfer. Methods This study included 28 shoulders from Japanese cadavers: 19 male and 9 female. The distance from the coracoid tip to the distal attachment of the coracoclavicular ligament and the anterior and posterior margins of the coracoacromial ligament or pectoralis minor on the coracoid process were measured. Results The mean available length for coracoid transfer was 24.8 ± 3.4 mm. There was a significant difference in length between male and female subjects, being 26.0 ± 2.9 mm and 22.2 ± 3.0 mm, respectively (p = 0.004). High positive correlations were found between the length of the coracoid transfer and cadaver’s height (r = 0.48, p = 0.009) and the distance from the coracoid tip to the anterior coracoacromial ligament attachment (r = 0.63, p < 0.001). The receiver operating characteristic curve area under the curve for cadaver height was 0.72 while that for distance from coracoid tip to anterior coracoacromial ligament was 0.88 when predicted for a sufficient length for coracoid transfer > 25 mm. Conclusions Our findings will aid surgeons in preoperative planning and performing of osteotomy of the coracoid safely by predicting the available length of coracoid bone graft.

Abstract
PURPOSE A crucial step of the Latarjet procedure is the fixation of the coracoid process onto the glenoid. Multiple problems associated with the fixation have been described, including lesions of the suprascapular nerve due to prominence of the screw or bicortical drilling. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether monocortical fixation, without perforating the posterior glenoid cortex, would provide sufficient graft stability. METHODS Coracoid transfer was performed in 14 scapula models (Sawbones®, Composite Scapula, 4th generation). Two groups were assigned: in one group, fixation was achieved with two screws that did not perforate the posterior cortex of the glenoid neck (monocortical fixation), in the other group, fixation was achieved with perforation of the posterior cortex (bicortical fixation). The ultimate failure load and mode of failure were evaluated biomechanically. RESULTS Monocortical fixation was a significantly weaker construct than bicortical fixation (median failure load 221 N, interquartile range 211-297 vs. median failure load 423 N, interquartile range 273-497; p = 0.017). Failure was either due to a pullout of the screws from the socket or a fracture of the glenoid. There was no significant difference in the mode of failure between the two groups (n.s.). CONCLUSION Monocortical fixation was significantly weaker than bicortical fixation. However, bicortical drilling and overly long screws may jeopardize the suprascapular nerve. Thus, anatomic knowledge about the safe zone at the posterior rim of the glenoid is crucial. Until further research has evaluated, if the inferior stability is clinically relevant, clinicians should be cautious to use a monocortical fixation technique for the coracoid graft.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite good clinical results and low recurrence rates, post-operative complications of coracoid process transfer procedures are not well understood. This study aims to evaluate the underlying failure mechanism in cases requiring major open revision surgery after prior Bristow or Latarjet stabilization. METHODS Between January 2006 and January 2017, 26 patients underwent major open revision after primary Bristow or Latarjet procedure. Clinical notes and radiographic images were retrospectively reviewed for all cases to determine underlying pathology. Choice of treatment and clinical and radiographic outcome were similarly reported for all cases. RESULTS The underlying failure mechanism was associated with non-union in 42.3%, resorption in 23.1%, graft malpositioning in 15.4%, and trauma or graft fracture in 19.2% of cases. Although none of the patients reported any dislocations, mean subjective shoulder score was 60.2% and WOSI scores averaged 709.3 points at final follow-up. Radiographic signs of deteriorating degenerative arthritis were seen in 34.6%. CONCLUSION Graft non-union resulting in recurrent instability was the main indication for open revision surgery after Bristow or Latarjet procedure, followed by resorption, malpositioning, and graft fracture in this retrospective case series. Revision surgery consisted of a structural iliac crest bone graft in the majority of cases. Clinical and radiographic outcomes are predictably variable in this population of multioperated patients.

Abstract
Rim defects of the anterior glenoid cavity are a main reason for residual shoulder instability after traumatic dislocation of the shoulder. These defects can be the result of a glenoid rim fracture or chronic glenoid erosion after repeated shoulder dislocations. Treatment concepts for these entities are entirely different. While in the acute fracture situation glenoid rim fractures can be treated operatively or non-operatively, augmentation of the anterior glenoid for stabilization of the shoulder should be considered if the defect exceeds 15-25% of the anterior glenoid. The purpose of this article is to summarize the diagnostics and indications for treatment of glenoid rim fractures. Radiological assessment and options for augmentation are reviewed for both acute fractures as well as chronic instability following an anterior glenoid rim defect.

Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS Coracoid transfer procedures are known to be successful when it comes to prevention of recurrence. However, all of them are invariably associated with high complication rates, especially limited range of motion.Arthroscopic technique was found to have an overall lower rate of complications when compared to the open procedures.Despite being scarce, the CHSJ data roughly overlap the literature. BACKGROUND Different surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of the recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. Despite the documented success of the open procedures, some studies suggest that the arthroscopic technique leads to more favorable results. However, there still seems to be some disagreement concerning the incidence of complications, when comparing open and arthroscopic techniques. OBJECTIVE AND METHODS As an attempt to clarify these doubts about the incidence of complications associated with the different techniques, this study contains a free literature review along with a retrospective case series of the patients who underwent these procedures in an University hospital in the past 10 years. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION There are various techniques for the treatment of the recurrent dislocation of the shoulder, all of them with known success when it comes to prevention of recurrence. However, all of them are invariably associated with high complication rates.Despite being associated with a slightly higher re-operation rate, in the literature, the arthroscopic technique was found to have an overall lower rate of complications when compared to the open procedures. Centro Hospitalar São João (CHSJ) presented a higher rate of screw related complications and revision surgery than the literature. However, concerning other complications and when assessing the procedures individually, no tendency was verified. One can therefore conclude that, despite being scarce, the Centro Hospitalar São João CHSJ data roughly overlap the literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE AND HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to compare early clinical results after open and arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation in anterior shoulder instability. Our hypothesis was the results of arthroscopic stabilisation were comparable with the results of open procedure. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical results of the patients after primary Latarjet procedure were analysed. Patients operated on between 2006 and 2011 using an open technique composed the OPEN group and patients operated on arthroscopically between 2011 and 2013 composed the ARTHRO group; 48 out of 55 shoulders (87%) in OPEN and 62 out of 64 shoulders (97%) in ARTHRO were available to follow-up. The average age at surgery was 28 years in OPEN and 26 years in ARTHRO. The mean follow-up was 54.2 months in OPEN and 23.4 months in ARTHRO. Intra-operative data were analysed regarding time of surgery, concomitant lesions and complications. Patient results were assessed with Walch-Duplay, Rowe, VAS scores and subjective self-evaluation of satisfaction and shoulder function. Computed tomography scan evaluation was used to assess the graft healing. RESULTS Average time of surgery was significantly shorter in ARTHRO than OPEN: respectively 110 and 120 minutes. The number of intra-operative complications was six (12.5%) in OPEN and five (8.1%) in ARTHRO. The results were comparable in both groups, with no significant difference between OPEN and ARTHRO group: satisfaction rate - 96.8% and 91.9%, shoulder function - 92.2% and 90%, Walch-Duplay score - 83.9 and 76.7 respecively. A significant difference was reported in Rowe score: 87.8 in OPEN and 78.9 in ARTHRO. Another significant difference was found in the presence of "subjective apprehension"-a term referring to the subjective perception of instability with no signs of instability at clinical examination - 28.7% in OPEN and 50% in ARTHRO. Range of motion in both groups were comparable, however patients in OPEN had significantly lower loss of external rotation in adduction to the side comparing to the contralateral shoulder: 7° versus 14° in ARTHRO. Recurrence was reported in three cases in each group: 6.2% in OPEN and 4.8% in ARTHRO. A revision surgery was performed in four patients (9.3%) in OPEN and six (9.7%) in ARTHRO. Radiographic evaluation showed a significantly lower rate (5%) of graft healing problems (fracture, non-union and osteolysis) after arthroscopic stabilisation, however a partial osteolysis of the proximal part of the bone block was significantly more frequent (53.5%). CONCLUSIONS The arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation showed satisfactory and comparable results to open procedure. We recommend further investigation and development of arthroscopic technique.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard radiography with an antero-posterior view and Bernageau's glenoid profile view is the method most widely reported in the literature to assess coracoid bone block position and fusion. OBJECTIVE The aim of this cadaver study was to determine whether the antero-posterior and Bernageau's radiographs provide a reliable and reproducible evaluation of the position of a coracoid bone block and its fixation screws. METHOD An isolated scapula showing no evidence of osteoarthritis or other abnormalities was used. The coracoid process was transferred to the anterior glenoid rim. Fixation was with two slightly diverging malleolar screws, chosen of different sizes for ease of identification. Computed tomography (CT) was performed as the reference imaging technique. The standard radiographs were then obtained, using fluoroscopy to accurately position the scapula for the antero-posterior and Bernageau's views. This position was defined as 0°, and radiographs were taken at angles of 5°, 10°, and 15° in all three planes. All radiographs were taken during a single session to ensure that the distance separating the tube from the scapula remained unchanged. The images were exported to OsiriX for analysis. We measured the angles formed by the screws and the glenoid surface, as well as bone block position and overhang. Finally, we used 1-mm thick disks to evaluate bone-to-bone contact. RESULTS No correlations were found between values by CT and by standard radiography (both views) for the screw angles or overhang. A space≤1mm between the neck of the scapula and the bone block was not visible on the standard radiographs in any of the positions. CONCLUSION Standard radiography does not provide an accurate analysis of bone block position or bone-to-bone contact. CT is needed to assess bone block and screw position and bone-to-bone contact.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treating anterior glenoid bone loss in patients with recurrent shoulder instability is challenging. Coracoid transfer techniques are associated with neurologic complications and neuroanatomic alterations. The purpose of our study was to compare the contact area and pressures of a distal clavicle autograft with a coracoid bone graft for the restoration of anterior glenoid bone loss. We hypothesized that a distal clavicle autograft would be as effective as a coracoid graft. METHODS In 13 fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulder specimens, we harvested the distal 1.0 cm of each clavicle and the coracoid bone resection required for a Latarjet procedure. A compressive load of 440 N was applied across the glenohumeral joint at 30° and 60° of abduction, as well as 60° of abduction with 90° of external rotation. Pressure-sensitive film was used to determine normal glenohumeral contact area and pressures. In each specimen, we created a vertical, 25% anterior bone defect, reconstructed with distal clavicle (articular surface and undersurface) and coracoid bone grafts, and determined the glenohumeral contact area and pressures. We used analysis of variance for group comparisons and a Tukey post hoc test for individual comparisons (with P <.05 indicating a significant difference). RESULTS The articular distal clavicle bone graft provided the lowest mean pressure in all testing positions. The coracoid bone graft provided the greatest contact area in all humeral positions, but the difference was not significant. CONCLUSION An articular distal clavicle bone graft is comparable in glenohumeral contact area and pressures to an optimally placed coracoid bone graft for restoring glenoid bone loss.

Abstract
PURPOSE The Bristow procedure has become an effective surgical option for recurrent anterior instability of the shoulder; however, there is no consensus on whether a capsule repair following a Bristow procedure is necessary to restore glenohumeral stability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether capsular repair with a modified Bristow procedure affects rotational range of motion and glenohumeral stability. METHODS Rotational range of motion, glenohumeral translation and kinematics were measured in eight cadaveric shoulders in 90° shoulder abduction in the scapular and coronal planes for four conditions: intact, 20 % bony Bankart lesion, modified Bristow without capsular repair and modified Bristow with capsular repair. RESULTS Creation of the bony Bankart led to a significant increase in total range of motion and anterior-inferior translation compared to the intact shoulder. The modified Bristow procedure significantly decreased anterior-inferior translation compared to the bony Bankart but did not decrease total range of motion. Capsular repair decreased total range of motion in the scapular and coronal planes and altered normal glenohumeral kinematics in external rotation positions. CONCLUSION Repairing the capsule in a Bristow procedure decreases rotational range of motion yet does not offer any added anterior-inferior translational stability. Capsular repair also significantly alters normal glenohumeral kinematics. Capsule repair with a Bristow procedure may not add additional glenohumeral stability in positions of apprehension and may potentially over constrain the joint and cause altered kinematics.
