First seen May 13, 2026 ยท Last updated May 13, 2026

Summary

This study compares two surgical techniques for people who have repeated shoulder dislocations and minor bone loss.

The goal is to see which approach leads to better shoulder function and less pain. Thirty participants will be followed for at least two years after surgery.
