    • intact periosteal sleeve lifted off scapular neck
    • inferior glenohumeral ligament complex remains attached to periosteum
  • ALPSA
    • similar to Perthes but the inferior glenohumeral ligament complex displaced medially and 'bunched up'
    • labrum displaced inferomedially
  • Bankart lesion
    • torn labrum and periosteum
  • Bony Bankart lesion
