In this paper we compare the performance of Minton’s et al. min-conflicts hill-climbing (MCHC) algorithm [8], Wallace and Freuder’s MCHC algorithm [18], Morris’ breakout algorithm (BA) [9, 10], and modified variants of the BA that we developed on static constraint satisfaction problems and recurrent dynamic constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs & rDCSPs). In this study, our results show that t...

The glenoid track paradigm has played a pivotal role in the development of contemporary approach to shoulder stabilization surgery. A number studies have validated importance bipolar bone loss pathogenesis recurrent anterior instability and defined limitations soft tissue–based, arthroscopic surgical approaches. also helped clarify indications for coracoid transfer procedures, although some que...

Objectives: The on-track/off-track concept for shoulder instability primarily describes the medial-lateral rotational relationship between an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion and a Bankart defect. Though clinically more protective, on-track lesions retain some risk failure following primary arthroscopic repair. While of this can be explained by “near-track” concept, role superior-inferior position ha...
