مستخلص: Thirty-seven of 41 consecutive patients with recurrent anterior instability of the shoulder were retrospectively observed for a mean of 5.6 years (range, 4 to 10) after an arthroscopic stabilization procedure had been performed. The operative technique involved the use of transglenoid sutures to repair the capsule and labrum. According to the criteria established by Rowe, 27 patients (74%) had good or excellent results, and 3 patients (7%) were graded as fair. Seven patients (19%) developed recurrent instability after the procedure and had failed results. Failure rates were equal in patients with a history of recurrent dislocation and those with recurrent subluxation. Absence of a Bankart lesion at operation was associated with postoperative instability (P = 0.03). The presence or size of humeral head defects did not influence the result. Eight of 12 athletes who engaged in sports requiring repetitive overhead shoulder motion returned to full activity, and none of the 12 developed instability after operation. Four of the 13 patients who participated in contact sports or recreational skiing developed postoperative instability (P= 0.21). All failures occurred within 2 years of the procedure.
