Abstract

This case presents the challenges of management associated with a young throwing athlete presenting with a history of bilateral anterior shoulder instability. This athlete had multiple surgical interventions over a three-year period. The imaging modalities provided partial elucidation (at best) of the true picture of the pathology. This case report outlines the decision making process utilized to provide individualized care to a young throwing athlete with bilateral glenohumeral joint instability, recurrent dislocations, and resultant glenoid bone loss.
