The Eden-Hybbinette procedure is one hundred years old! A historical view of the concept and its evolutions.
One hundred years ago, before Bankart, Latarjet or Bristow, Eden and Hybbinette developed a procedure to treat anterior shoulder instability and currently, this eponymous term is known by every shoulder surgeon. The purpose of this review is to summarise the historical "Eden-Hybbinette" procedure and its evolutions during the last century and discuss results. ⋯ The Eden-Hybbinette procedure is one of the oldest surgical interventions still commonly used for chronic anterior shoulder instability. The changes to the procedure over the last 100 years allow it to remain a contemporary solution for both primary surgery and revision cases.
