Once the ligaments, tendons, and muscles around the shoulder become loose or torn, dislocations can occur repeatedly. Chronic shoulder instability is the persistent inability of these tissues to keep the arm centered in the shoulder socket. (Left) Normal shoulder stability. (Right) Head of the humerus dislocated to the front of the shoulder.

What causes shoulder instability? With significant trauma to a previously normal joint, the humeral head can be forcefully subluxed or dislocated. The capsule, ligaments, or labrum can be stretched, torn, or detached from the bone. When the humeral head is back in place (reduced) [Figure 4] these structures

The causes of chronic shoulder instability include: A sudden trauma, whether a hard hit or fall, that forces the shoulder out of its socket and tears or stretches the ligaments. Once loose, the shoulder is more prone to movement and can lead to a chronic state of instability. Repetitive motions, such as an overhead throw, loosen the shoulder

Latarjet procedure is a possible surgical procedure to treat patients with anterior shoulder instability and accompanied bone loss. It involves transferring the coracoid process and its attached conjoint tendon to the anterior glenoid rim.

The shoulder joint is incredible because it allows us to move our shoulder through an amazing arc of motion⁠—no joint in the body allows more motion than the shoulder joint. Unfortunately, by allowing this wide range of motion, the shoulder is not as stable as other joints. Because of this, shoulder instability is not uncommon.

Anterior shoulder instability is defined as a soft tissue or bony insult of the shoulder that causes the humeral head to sublux or dislocate from the glenoid fossa. The lifetime risk of suffering from anterior shoulder instability is 1 to 2%. The young, active, athletic population is at high risk to shoulder instability events.
