Abstract
Traumatic posterior dislocation of the shoulder is frequently associated with an osteochondral defect on the anterior articular surface of the humeral head (so-called reverse Hill–Sachs lesion). Possible treatment options are either filling or elevation of the osseous defect. Previously, an open technique has been described using a bioabsorbable interference screw. On the basis of a 64-year-old patient presenting with a reverse Hill–Sachs lesion after epileptic seizure, we describe an arthroscopic technique in which the defect is reconstructed under arthroscopic and fluoroscopic control and supported by a bioabsorbable interference screw.
