The glenopolar angle is defined as the angle between the line connecting the most cranial with the most caudal point of the glenoid cavity and the line connecting the most cranial of the glenoid cavity with the most caudal ...

However, the failure rate following Bankart repair has been shown to increase markedly in people with significant bone loss from the glenoid (socket). [28] In such cases, improved results have been reported with some form of bone augmentation of the glenoid such as the Latarjet operation. [29] [30] [31]
