Arthroscopic Management of Posterior Instability due to "Floating" Posterior Inferior Glenohumeral Ligament Lesions.


ABSTRACT: The "floating" posterior inferior glenohumeral ligament (floating PIGHL) is an uncommon cause of posterior shoulder instability. This pathologic lesion, defined as detachment of both the origin of the PIGHL (posterior Bankart lesion) and insertion of the of the PIGHL from its humeral head insertion site, often results in significant and persistent shoulder instability symptoms. An effective surgical technique for arthroscopic repair of a floating PIGHL lesion is described and demonstrated.
