Variability in quantifying the Hill-Sachs lesion: A scoping review

Background Currently, is there no consensus on a widely accepted measurement technique for calculating the Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL). The purpose of this review to provide an overview techniques and imaging modalities assess HSL pre-operatively. Methods Four online databases (PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, COCHRANE) were searched literature various used quantifying HSLs, from data inception 20 November 2021. Methodological Index Non-Randomized Studies tool was study quality. Results Forty-five studies encompassing 3413 patients included in review. MRA MRI showed highest sensitivity, specificity, accuracy values. Intrarater interrater agreement shown be amongst MRA. most common reference tests measuring arthroscopy, radiography, arthro-CT, surgical techniques. Conclusion are reliable with good test diagnostic properties assessment HSLs. There wide variety assessment, however lack comparative exists. Thus, it not possible comment superiority one over another. Future comparing needed that incorporate cost-benefit analysis.
