Abstract
Recent years have seen an evolution in our understanding, description and grading of shoulder conditions and an expansion in the development of open and arthroscopic surgical techniques aiming at addressing these. In this chapter, nine classic articles reporting on shoulder biomechanics, shoulder conditions, surgical techniques and classification systems are presented. They are all highly clinically relevant for the practising shoulder surgeon but also for the shoulder researcher.
