The 18-year old competitive tennis player with no ligamentous laxity and x-ray findings consistent with a Hill-Sachs lesion and loss of glenoid contour has an instability severity index score (ISIS) of 9, which is associated with a >70% chance of recurrent instability after a arthroscopic Bankart procedure.

The surgical management of anterior shoulder instability consists of both arthroscopic and open approaches. The guiding principles for treatment are the restoration of the normal glenoid labrum anatomy and retensioning of the inferior glenohumeral ligament which is achieved via soft-tissue reconstructions (repair of any labral detachment +/- capsular shift) or bony procedures (such as transfer of the coracoid process).

Ahmed et al. reviewed 302 patients who had undergone arthroscopic Bankart repair and capsular shift for the treatment of recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability. The prevalence of patient and injury-related risk factors for recurrence was assessed. The rate of recurrent glenohumeral instability after arthroscopic Bankart repair and capsular shift was 13.2%. The risk of recurrence was independently predicted by the patient’s age at surgery, the severity of glenoid bone loss, and the presence of an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion.

Balg et al. identified risk factors for recurrent instability after arthroscopic Bankart procedure in 131 consecutive patients. Age under 20 years at the time of surgery; involvement in competitive or contact sports or those involving forced overhead activity; shoulder hyperlaxity; a Hill-Sachs lesion present on an AP radiograph of the shoulder in external rotation and/or loss of the sclerotic inferior glenoid contour were all identified as risk factors. These factors were integrated into a 10-point pre-operative instability severity index score (ISIS). Patients with a score over 6 points had an unacceptable recurrence risk of 70%.

Incorrect Answers:
Answer 1 & 2: These patients have an instability severity index score of 5. This is associated with a 10% risk of recurrence.
Answer 4: This patients instability severity index score is 4. This is associated with a 10% risk of recurrence.
Answer 5: This patients instability severity index score is 3. This is associated with a 5% risk of recurrence.
