Abstract:
Shoulder instability episodes are observed in high-energy injuries, such as seizures. In this case report, we highlight the management of a failed distal tibial allograft procedure for recurrent shoulder instability in a patient with a bony Bankart lesion and epilepsy. The patient was treated with an iliac crest autograft and a proximal humerus osteochondral allograft procedure. To our knowledge, the use of an iliac crest autograft for glenoid bone loss and a proximal humerus osteochondral allograft after several failed shoulder instability procedures in a patient with epilepsy has not been reported.
