Most commonly, shoulder instability results from a traumatic dislocation of the shoulder joint, usually happening to men under the age of 30. The first uncomplicated dislocation is treated conservatively. Instability refers to symptomatic instability of the shoulder joint, i.e. recurrent dislocations or fear of dislocation. Clinical examination and X-ray are usually sufficient for diagnosis. While mechanical instability of the shoulder joint is an indication for surgery, the operative technique should be selected in a patient-specific manner.
最常见的情况是，肩关节不稳定源于肩关节的创伤性脱位，通常发生在30岁以下的男性身上。首次无并发症的脱位采用保守治疗。不稳定是指肩关节的症状性不稳定，即反复脱位或害怕脱位。临床检查和X光检查通常足以进行诊断。虽然肩关节的机械性不稳定是手术的指征，但手术技术应以患者个体情况为基础进行选择。
