title: The surgical treatment of posterior shoulder instability.
abstract: Operative procedures for recurrent posterior instability range from glenoid osteotomy, posterior bone block procedures, posterior capsular plication with biceps tenodesis to arthroscopic stabilization with a biodegradable tac. The best results and the most commonly reported procedure(s) involve the reattachment of any labral detachment and a posterior capsular plication via a posterior approach.
