A Bankart Lesion involves damage to the attachment of the labrum to the glenoid, with or without a bony avulsion. A Labral Tear occurs when the donut-shaped cartilage encircling the glenoid surface is torn within its substance, or from the glenoid, with or without the biceps tendon anchor point.<\/p>\n<p>Often the result of landing on the arm during high-energy falls in such sports as football or skiing, Glenohumeral Joint Instability, if unaddressed, can lead to recurrent shoulder dislocations. Painful partial dislocations, called subluxations, are a form of microinstability that can lead to pain, tendinitis and further damaging of ligaments and cartilage.<\/p>\n<p>Arthroscopic surgical ligament repair and post-operative physical therapy normally serve to resolve these conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glenohumeral Joint Instability most commonly occurs when the shoulder\u2019s ball-and-socket joint is compromised by traumatic injury to the ligaments, rotator cuff, capsule or labrum that work together to keep the humeral head properly centered in the glenoid.
