In Alvik's modification of the Eden-Hybbinette operation, an iliac crest bone graft is inserted in a groove in the glenoid rim of the scapula. In this retrospective study, 52 shoulders in 46 patients operated on using the modified Alvik's method were reviewed. The mean age of the patients at the time of the operation was 32 years, and the average follow-up time was 6 years. There were no operative complications, and two thirds of the patients were satisfied with the operation. Spontaneous redislocation occurred postoperatively in only one shoulder. In addition, there were 10 traumatic redislocations. Postoperative arthrosis was found in nine shoulders; the arthrosis had more correlation with the patient's age at the time of the operation than with the follow-up time. In 41 shoulders, there was bony healing of the transplant.
