This course presents an evidence-based approach to the management of first-time shoulder dislocation, with a special focus on diagnosis and intervention in the young athlete.
At the conclusion of this course learners should be able to:
- Recognize anatomic and biomechanical factors in patients with a first-time anterior shoulder dislocation, including lesions and deficiencies.
- Review nonsurgical versus surgical treatment in athletes with a first-time shoulder dislocation, considering patient demographics and sports-related risks.
- Evaluate challenges in accurately defining critical glenoid bone loss, considering the effects of glenoid morphology, concavity, and location, and propose strategies to address these challenges in clinical assessment.
- Compare the short-term and long-term complications of arthroscopic Bankart repair, open Bankart repair, and the Latarjet procedure, considering factors such as recurrence rates, infection, neurologic injury, nonunion, osteolysis, and glenohumeral arthropathy.
- Analyze the effect of early surgical management on the outcomes of shoulder instability, considering athlete-specific factors and patient demographics.
- Review the Latarjet procedure in collision athletes, considering bone loss, recurrence rates, and effect on sports participation.
- Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of alternative shoulder instability bony reconstruction procedures.
