Glenoid bone loss is commonly observed in anterior glenohumeral instability and varies greatly in both its extent and significance.8,16 In 2000, Burkhart and De Beer3 reported a recurrence rate of 4% after arthroscopic Bankart repair for anterior instability in patients without significant bone deficiency, whereas the rate of recurrence was 67% in the presence of bony deficiency. They defined significant glenoid bone loss as an “inverted pear glenoid” in which there was greater than 25% loss of the inferior glenoid diameter.
