Graft Resorption After Posterior Distal Tibial Allograft Augmentation for Posterior Shoulder Instability: A Case Report.
JBJS Case Connector 2024 January 2
CASE: A 19-year-old man underwent arthroscopic posterior glenoid reconstruction with a distal tibia allograft (DTA) after failing 2 posterior, soft-tissue instability surgeries. Although he experienced near-complete resolution of symptoms and return to sport, graft resorption was noted 7 months postoperatively. The patient underwent revision surgery for screw removal.
CONCLUSION: Graft resorption has not previously been reported in the setting of arthroscopic DTA use for posterior instability. It is believed that stress shielding contributed to resorption. In such situations, screw removal may be warranted. Consideration of alternative fixation techniques and additional investigation into the causes, clinical significance, and optimal management of posterior DTA resorption are warranted.
