[Arthroscopic versus open anterior shoulder stabilization. A systematic validation].
The treatment of traumatic anterior glenohumeral instability has been a topic of debate over the last couple of decades. However, a consensus exists regarding the necessity of an individualized treatment plan based on the type and degree of instability and the patient's functional demands. Various open and arthroscopic techniques are among the currently used surgical procedures. Open reconstruction of the capsulolabral complex had been considered the treatment of choice for many years, but the latest results for arthroscopic anterior shoulder stabilization demonstrate its increasing use. The current literature suggests that with the introduction of suture anchors, it is possible to mirror the principles of open anterior shoulder stabilization and thus combine the general advantages of arthroscopic surgery with a low recurrence rate.
