This document discusses the arthroscopic management of posterior shoulder instability. It finds that posterior instability is more common than traditionally estimated, occurring in 17-35% of shoulder stabilization surgeries especially among contact athletes like rugby players. Posterior instability often presents with anterior instability symptoms, weakness, or cuff pain. Assessment involves special tests like the modified O'Brien's test. MR arthrogram can diagnose isolated anterior or posterior labral tears but has lower accuracy for combined lesions. Key steps of arthroscopic management include utilizing proper portal placement and angles, addressing reverse Hill-Sachs lesions, and specialized post-op rehabilitation involving the kinetic chain and rotator cuff. Bone loss increases risk of failure so it must also be addressed.
