Abstract

Some young individuals present with shoulder pain without a definite history or complaint of instability. However, careful history taking, physical examination, and high-quality magnetic resonance imaging may reveal evidence of instability of which the patient is unaware. Therefore, a clearer definition of these ambiguous patients is needed. This study aimed to report the characteristics and surgical outcomes of patients with microinstability compared to those of patients with classic recurrent anterior shoulder instability.
