About
Patrick Morrissey is an emerging leader in orthopaedic biomechanics, with a focused expertise in shoulder instability—both anterior and posterior. His work bridges the gap between surgical technique and mechanical proof, using cadaveric models to answer critical questions about how to restore native joint stability. In his landmark 2024 study on posterior glenohumeral instability, Morrissey demonstrated that a posterior acromial bone block (PABB) is biomechanically effective at restoring the force required to translate the humeral head posteriorly, providing a rigorous, evidence-based foundation for a novel surgical approach. Complementing this, his investigation into Hill-Sachs lesions revealed that both single- and double-anchor remplissage techniques restore native stability in anterior shoulder instability, offering surgeons clarity on fixation strategies. Though early in his career, his work has already garnered citations and is shaping the conversation in sports medicine and shoulder surgery. Morrissey’s research is defined by meticulous methodology and a clear translational impact—directly informing how surgeons reconstruct stability and prevent recurrent dislocation.
