Acronyms
warning

"Traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation is the common pattern ref. An initial traumatic dislocation may lead to glenohumeral instability, especially when associated with Bankart lesions. The acronym TUBS (traumatic, unidirectional, Bankart, surgery) is commonly used to emphasise that patients with this specific pattern often benefit from surgery ref."

Line 24:225 · 'TUBS' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"Mulidirectional instability is defined by instability in two or more directions, usually anterior and posterior. Multidirectional instability may be atraumatic or secondary to repetitive microtrauma. The acronym AMBRI (atraumatic, multidirectional, bilateral, rehabilitation, inferior) is commonly used to emphasise that patients with this specific pattern often fare well with rehabilation protocols, but may benefit from inferior capsular shift if nonoperative treatment fails."

Line 32:223 · 'AMBRI' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.

"MRI and arthrographic studies are very accurate in showing chondral and labral injuries (e.g. Bankart lesion, ALPSA, GLAD, and HAGL, as well as their counterparts in posterior instability) ref. Visualisation of the Perthes lesion may be improved by using the ABER position. In multidirectional instability, a circumferential labral tear is often present ref."
