Abstract
Although the development of arthrosis is rare following shoulder dislocations, it represents a significant problem if it develops after surgery for shoulder instability. The incidence of arthrosis may be decreased by correct diagnosis of the instability and appropriate surgical technique. However, should it occur, shoulder arthroplasty should be considered.
