FUNCTIONAL SHOULDER INSTABILITY

Patients with a glenohumeral instability are often classified in either dislocation or subluxation. In recent years the realisation has risen that within the subgroup of subluxation there is a large percentage where the structural instability component is very subtle („hidden“, „occult“). This „minor“ instability component can be so subtle that the patient does not realise that there is an instability; but the insufficient centralisation of the humeral head on the glenoid fossa may lead to an overuse and subsequent microtraumata of the stabilising structures or may lead to a secondary impingement. The subtle instability is only apparent under functional loads when the examiner challenges the ability of the patient to maintain the humeral head centered. For the managment of patients with shoulder problems it is essential to differentiate whether there is a dysfunction in this ability.
