A sulcus sign represents inferior subluxation of the shoulder. The elimination of this sign and correction of the inferior subluxation is best achieved through either an open or arthroscopic rotator interval closure. A SLAP repair stabilizes the biceps anchor but does not affect the sulcus sign. A Bankart repair, which corrects anterior-inferior laxity, is not sufficient to eliminate a sulcus sign. Subacromial decompression and supraspinatus repairs have no effect on inferior subluxation.
