Why the study?
There is no consensus regarding the amount of posterior glenoid bone loss considered critical, where isolated labral repair will not sufficiently restore stability.
Key points are not available for this paper at this time.
Posterior glenoid bone loss threshold for failed labral repair remains undefined; leaves open need for prospective validation before clinical adoption.
There is currently no consensus regarding the amount of posterior glenoid bone loss that is considered critical, in which an isolated labral repair will not sufficiently restore stability. The purpose of this study was to identify the critical size of the posterior defect.
