Decision Algorithm for Instable Shoulder

Arthroscopic Capsuloplasty Latarjet Arthroscopic Bone Block
ISIS score <3 points ISIS score >6 points Young age
No glenoid bone loss Chronic instability for >3-5 yr ≤5 episodes
Isolated glenoid bone loss <10% >10 episodes First episode of dislocation ≤3 years earlier
≤3 episodes Glenoid bone loss >25% Good tissue consistency of capsule and ligaments

ISIS, instability severity index score.
