The complex relationship between increased range of motion and decreased stability subjects the shoulder to more episodes of subluxation and dislocation than other joints in the body. Traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation remains a common problem not only in young athletes, but also for older individuals after a fall. The most common mechanism of injury remains shoulder abduction with forced external rotation that often results in significant disability and time lost from work or sports.
