Dynamic Anterior Stabilization with Hill‐Sachs Remplissage Can be Employed in Skeletally Immature Patients—Operative Technique

Background Numerous studies indicate that glenoid bony augmentation raises the risk of complications during and after surgery. On the other hand, repairing the labrum alone in cases with subcritical glenoid bone loss results in recurrent instability and persistent apprehension. As a result, recent advancements in shoulder instability surgery prioritize fully restoring the anterior shoulder restraint. Operative Technique A novel method for treating recurrent anterior shoulder instability with subcritical glenoid bone loss and off‐track Hill‐Sachs lesion in skeletally immature patients is suggested: the use of dynamic anterior stabilization technique incorporating the long head of the biceps tendon onto the anterior glenoid rim via trans‐subscapular transfer, in conjunction with Hill‐Sachs remplissage. A practical, step‐by‐step surgical technique for a complete reconstruction of the anterior capsule‐labral‐ligamentous complex is provided. This involves utilizing a soft‐tissue dynamic anterior sling, achieved through the trans‐subscapularis transfer of the long head of the biceps tendon at the glenoid level. The procedure concludes with a Hill‐Sachs remplissage to further prevent off‐track events and alleviate apprehension. Conclusion Dynamic anterior stabilization is a suitable approach for addressing recurring anterior shoulder instability in skeletally immature patients who have subcritical glenoid bone loss and bipolar bone lesions.
