About

Steven L. Bokshan is a leading orthopaedic researcher whose work centers on shoulder instability, biomechanics, and surgical repair techniques. His major contributions have advanced the understanding of how to optimize outcomes for patients with Bankart lesions and glenohumeral instability. Notably, his 2019 study on augmenting Bankart repair with long head of the biceps tendon transfer—cited 33 times—provided critical biomechanical evidence for a novel surgical approach in bone loss scenarios. Another influential 2019 paper, with 23 citations, demonstrated that adding a 6-o’clock anchor significantly strengthens labral repair, offering a practical refinement to standard procedures. Bokshan has also explored the role of glenoid retroversion in posterior instability, with his 2021 cadaveric study (7 citations) shedding light on how anatomical variations increase surgical risk. His work is widely referenced by clinicians and researchers seeking evidence-based improvements in shoulder stabilization, and his biomechanical models have become benchmarks for testing new techniques.
