Shoulder instability, in which the shoulder joint is unstable, became better understood in the 20th century. Advances in orthopedics and sports medicine have helped deepen our understanding of the causes and treatment options for shoulder instability. It is known that it is often triggered by injury or anatomical factors. The development of arthroscopic procedures in recent decades has significantly improved surgical treatment options. Physiotherapy also plays an important role in the rehabilitation of shoulder instability.
