SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Results showed patients with anterior shoulder instability had a 6.1% dislocation rate and a 19.6% subluxation rate 2 years after surgery, with younger patients and revised patients having increased risks for failure.
At the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Annual Meeting, Brian R. Wolf, MD, MS, presented results from the MOON Shoulder Instability, a prospective, multicenter study that analyzed data from 1,021 patients (average age of 22 years) who underwent surgery for anterior shoulder instability.
