title: Reconstruction Of Glenoid Bone Deficiency With Porous Titanium Nickelide In Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability.
abstract: One of the main causes of recurrent shoulder instability is a bone defect of the front edge of the glenoid. The available techniques for reconstruction of this bone defect, however, have some disadvantages.
  
  
  
  The aim of this study was to develop a new method that can reduce the number of postoperative complications and improve the efficiency of surgical treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder instability with glenoid bone defect.
  
  
  
  We present here a new method for surgical treatment of post-traumatic recurrent anterior shoulder instability with bony defects using porous NiTi. We operated 5 patients using this method. Computed tomography was used in the preoperative preparation of the NiTi graft. The graft was sawed from a cylindrical billet about 1 cm in thickness. Two screw holes were then made with a drill. The prepared graft was subsequently installed in the area of the glenoid bone defect.
  
  
  
  There were no recurrences of the dislocation after the surgical treatment. All patients returned to their previous levels of physical activity.
  
  
  
  The proposed method is an alternative to Latarjet procedure and iliac crest bone grafting. The advantages of this method are accurate reconstruction of the bone defect, minimal risk of recurrences, no resorption, and reduction of procedure time.
