Question #1 • Describe the passive and dynamic stabilizers of the GH joint
Glenohumeral Instability • Passive stabilizers • GH ligaments (superior, middle, inferior) • Joint capsule • Coracohumeral ligament • Dynamic stabilizers • Rotator cuff muscles • Other GH musculature
Question #2 • Describe the mechanism of injury for: • Anterior instability • Posterior instability • Multidirectional instability
Mechanism of Injury • Anterior instability • Repetitive microtrauma • External rotation and 900 abduction • Posterior instability • Repetitive microtrauma • Longitudinal force on humerus, internal rotation, GH flexion 900, horizontal adduction • Multidirectional instability • Typically External rotation and 900 abduction
Question #3 • Describe the pain characteristics associated with: • Anterior instability • Posterior instability • Multidirectional instability
Pain Characteristics • Anterior instability • ADLs • “loose”; abduction w/external rotation • Posterior instability • ADLs • “unstable”; brought across body • Multidirectional instability • ADLs • “loose”; extremes of rotation motions
Question #4 • Describe a Bankart lesion
Bankart Lesion • GH ligament avulsed along with a portion of the labrum • Difficult to identify clinically • Pain, crepitus as humeral head moves against anterior labrum during GH glide testing, shift and load testing, or external rotation of humerus
Question #5 • Describe the Apprehension test for anterior instability • Describe the Relocation test for anterior instability
Question #6 • Describe a Hill-Sachs Lesion and reverse Hill-Sachs Lesion
Hill-Sachs Lesion • Small defect – posterior humeral head’s articular cartilage • Caused by impact of humeral head on glenoid fossa as humerus attempts to relocate after anterior dislocation • Used as diagnostic tool • Rarely symptomatic; may lead to early degeneration of GH joint
Question #7 • Describe the Posterior Apprehension Test for GH Laxity • Describe the Test for Posterior Instability in the plane of the Scapula
Question #8 • Describe the Sulcus Sign for Inferior GH Laxity • What differentiates this test from the AC Traction Test?
