Brief Summary

Purpose: To evaluate the functional outcomes of arthroscopic onlay dynamic anterior stabilization (DAS) using the long head of biceps (LHB) tendon for treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability (AGI) with limited to subcritical glenoid bone loss (GBL).

Detailed Description

Twenty-five patients underwent arthroscopic DAS using LHB between March 2022 and October 2022 for treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability (AGI) with limited to subcritical glenoid bone loss (GBL) were included in a prospective study with a minimum follow-up period of 2 years.
