Arthroscopic Anatomic Glenoid Reconstruction Hardware Removal

Recurrent shoulder instability is associated with bone loss. Distal tibial allograft reconstruction of the glenoid is an accepted technique for managing bone loss. Bone remodeling occurs within the first 2 years postoperatively. This can lead to prominent instrumentation, particularly anteriorly near the subscapularis tendon, causing pain and weakness. We provide a description of arthroscopic instrumentation removal for prominent anterior screws following anatomic glenoid reconstruction with distal tibial allograft.
