Background:   To assess the outcome of the remplissage arthroscopic surgical method in patients with anterior shoulder dislocation associated with Hill-Sachs lesion.     Methods:   Ten patients with anterior shoulder dislocations and Hill-Sachs lesions were entered into this study and were operated on by the remplissage arthroscopic surgical method. They were followed up ۲۲ months after surgery in   order to evaluate the outcome of the treatment, including recurrence of dislocation and motion limitation.     Results:   During the internal follow up period no case of recurrence was found. Motion limitation during the follow up   period was not significant (internal rotation limitation=۵°±۱°, and external rotation limitation=۴°±۱°) Conclusions:   Our findings suggest that the remplissage arthroscopic surgical method is an acceptable, safe and   reliable treatment for anterior shoulder dislocation with engaging Hill-Sachs lesion.
