BACKGROUND: Progress has been made in the design of bioabsorbable implants, with reduced complication rates and slower degradation times. PURPOSE: To report on complications related to use of @entity7049 implants after arthroscopic shoulder stabilization procedures. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. METHODS: Between 1997 and 1999, 52 @entity1 underwent arthroscopic stabilization at one institution with an average of 2.2 @entity7049 tacks. Ten @entity1 (19%), with an average age of 30 years, developed delayed onset of symptoms at an average of 8 months after surgery, including @entity158 in all 10 and progressive stiffness in 6. The @entity1 underwent magnetic resonance imaging and arthroscopic evaluation and debridement. RESULTS: Nine @entity1 had gross implant debris. Evidence of @entity603 was seen arthroscopically in all 10 @entity1 . Three @entity1 had significant full-thickness chondral damage on the humeral head. All preexisting @entity75 were healed. One year after arthroscopic debridement, @entity12458 , and synovectomy, seven @entity1 reported no or minimal @entity158 and full return of motion. Two @entity1 continued to have persistent @entity158 and stiffness, and one @entity1 reported discomfort with overhand throwing; all three had @entity75 . CONCLUSIONS: @entity1 with symptoms of delayed @entity158 and progressive stiffness after arthroscopic stabilization with @entity7049 implants should be evaluated for @entity603 and @entity130 . Arthroscopic treatment provides a significant decrease in symptoms and increased range of motion.
