Cohen M, Leal AC, Motta Filho GR. Risk factors associated with glenohumeral arthritis before and after the Latarjet procedure: minimum follow-up of 5 years, using computed tomography imaging. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2025; 34:1433-1442. [PMID: 39617121 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.09.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 09/12/2024] [Accepted: 09/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2025]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Latarjet surgery has emerged as a prevalent option for managing anterior glenohumeral instability. Despite its efficacy, concerns persist regarding the development of postoperative osteoarthritis (OA), a significant complication. Understanding arthritis pathogenesis in patients undergoing this procedure proves challenging, as OA can manifest even in cases without surgical repair. Additionally, studies suggest correlation between inadequate surgical technique and the occurrence of postoperative arthritis. Traditional radiographic imaging may also underestimate the identification of early OA. Therefore, the objective of this study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with glenohumeral arthritis before and after the Latarjet procedure, with a minimum follow-up of 5 years, using computed tomography imaging (CT). METHODS This retrospective study involved patients who underwent the Latarjet procedure between 2012 and 2017. Inclusion criteria were availability of preoperative and at least 5 years postoperative CT and physical examinations. The primary outcome studied was the presence of glenohumeral OA, classified preoperatively and postoperatively using CT scans. Risk factors for progression to pre and postoperative OA were assessed, including etiology, age at the initial injury, number of dislocation episodes before surgery, time interval from the initial injury to surgical stabilization, size of glenoid defect, position and presence of graft resorption, and screw position. RESULTS Fifty joints of 45 patients were included in the final analysis. The presence of preoperative OA was found in 21 of 50 cases (42%). The risk of osteoarthritis (OA) was significantly associated with both shoulder dislocation following a seizure disorder and a larger glenoid size defect (P < .05). Of the 29 shoulders without preoperative arthritis, 8 developed arthritis postoperatively (27.5%). Of those 21 cases with preoperative osteoarthritis, progression occurred in 11 cases (52.3%) (P = .25). When considering all cases with OA progression, significant risk factors were the presence of intraarticular screws and when both screws had angulation equal or above 16° (P < .06). When considering those patients with progression of OA above 1 grade, significant risk factors were lateral graft position, screw angulation, and the presence of intra-articular screws. CONCLUSION Our study reveals a higher incidence of osteoarthritis than reported in the literature, likely attributed to the imaging method employed. Preoperatively, risk factors for the presence of OA included cases resulting from seizure disorders and larger glenoid bone defects. Postoperatively, the only factors related to the progression of osteoarthritis were those associated with potential surgical technique issues.

Abstract
Background The Bankart and the Latarjet procedures are 2 of the most commonly utilized surgical techniques to treat anterior shoulder instability. However, the long-term outcomes after these procedures remain unclear, and there is not enough information regarding arthroscopic Latarjet. Purpose To analyze long-term outcomes of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability managed with an arthroscopic Bankart or Latarjet procedure. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods Patients who underwent an arthroscopic Latarjet were matched-paired in a 1:1 ratio with patients who underwent an arthroscopic Bankart procedure at a single institution between 2007 and 2012. Recurrence at the time of follow-up as well as intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded and compared between the 2 groups. Postoperative status was assessed at the final follow-up using the Rowe score, the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), the Subjective Shoulder Value, and the return-to-sport rate. Results A total of 80 patients, 40 patients in each group, were included (overall mean age, 26.5 ± 15.4 years). The mean follow-up was 13.2 years (range, 10-17 years). The recurrence rate was significantly higher in the Bankart group compared with the Latarjet group (35% vs 10%, respectively; P = .009). The mean estimate for the cumulative proportion of stable shoulders at 15-year follow-up was 64.4% in the Bankart group and 89.6% in the Latarjet group (P = .008). Revision surgery because of instability was necessary in 8 (20%) patients in the Bankart group and 2 (5%) in the Latarjet group (P = .41). There was no significant group difference in complication rate (15% in the Bankart group vs 17.5% in the Latarjet group; P = .48). The WOSI score was significantly better in patients treated with arthroscopic Latarjet (P = .004). More than half of the patients were able to completely return to their previous sport (52.5%), with no significant difference between groups. Conclusion Arthroscopic Latarjet was associated with a significantly lower recurrence rate and better postoperative WOSI score and sports activity level at long-term follow-up compared with arthroscopic Bankart, without any greater risk of complications.

Abstract
Critical glenoid bone loss in the setting of glenohumeral instability presents a challenging problem for shoulder surgeons. In these cases, bone augmentation procedures are necessary to reconstruct the native glenoid and to maintain stability and function. Although the Latarjet procedure has good outcomes, the coracoid is not always large enough for full reconstruction of the glenoid. Alternative structural graft techniques have been developed over the years, including distal tibia allograft and iliac crest autograft, yet both of these techniques have several limitations. Due to the supply constraints associated with current graft options, introducing other options that mitigate these limitations is beneficial. In this technique and the accompanying video, we introduce the use of a distal radius allograft for glenoid reconstruction in the setting of glenohumeral instability. The distal radius allograft has a radius of curvature more closely matching that of the native glenoid, with anatomic features that can allow for enhanced glenohumeral stability, making it a promising option for this challenging problem.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze the causes of failure after a Latarjet procedure and to evaluate the results of revision surgery. METHODS Single-cohort, retrospective, observational study. Fifteen patients (13 males, mean age at revision failed Latarjet 38.9 years [range, 20-57]) with anterior glenohumeral instability who underwent a revision surgery for a failed Latarjet procedure were reviewed. Failure was defined as subluxation or dislocation. Demographic features, the reason for failure, type of lesions observed, and postoperative clinical and functional status were recorded. Functional status was assessed with the Rowe score. Subjective clinical evaluation was performed using the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) and Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV). RESULTS Recurrence occurred in the first year following the Latarjet procedure in 11 patients (73.3%). The causes of failure were graft avulsion in 3 cases, fracture in 1, coracoid misposition in 2 cases, graft nonunion in 1, advanced osteolysis in 4 cases, and persistence of an off-track Hill-Sachs lesion in 1. In 3 cases, no identifiable cause of failure but generalized severe hyperlaxity was found. Regarding revision surgery after the Latarjet procedure, 8 patients underwent an arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette procedure and in 3 patients the graft was repositioned. In the remaining 4 patients, an extra-articular capsular reinforcement was performed. Regarding the latter, 1 patient suffered new dislocations and required an additional revision surgery consisting of an Eden-Hybinette procedure. All patients remained stable after the revision surgery at the latest follow-up, except 2 who reported subluxations after an arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette and an extra-articular capsular reinforcement, but no additional surgical procedure was required. Functional status after revision surgery was satisfactory, with a mean Rowe score of 78 (10-100), WOSI score of 829 (225-1425), and an SSV score of 67 points (40-90). CONCLUSION The causes of failure after a Latarjet procedure were poor bone graft due to mispositioning, avulsion, fracture or resorption, generalized hyperlaxity, and incomplete restoration of the glenoid track. Our study demonstrates that when the cause of failure is identified and addressed, stability is restored, and clinical and functional scores improved.

Abstract
Aims The Bankart and Latarjet procedures are two of the most common surgical techniques to treat anterior shoulder instability with satisfactory clinical and functional outcomes. However, the outcomes in the adolescent population remain unclear, and there is no information regarding the arthroscopic Latarjet in this population. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of the arthroscopic Bankart and arthroscopic Latarjet procedures in the management of anterior shoulder instability in adolescents. Methods We present a retrospective, matched-pair study of teenagers with anterior glenohumeral instability treated with an arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) or an arthroscopic Latarjet (AL) procedure with a minimum two-year follow-up. Preoperative demographic and clinical features, factors associated with dislocation, and complications were collected. Recurrence, defined as dislocation or subluxation, was established as the primary outcome. Clinical and functional outcomes were analyzed using objective (Rowe), and subjective (Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE)) scores. Additionally, the rate of return to sport was assessed. Results A total of 51 adolescents were included, of whom 46 (92%) were male, with 17 (33%) in the Latarjet group and 34 (66%) in the Bankart group. The mean age at time of surgery was 18 years (15 to 19). There were no intraoperative complications. At a median follow-up of nine years (IQR 2 to 18), recurrence was observed in 12 patients in the Bankart group (35.3%) and one patient in the Latarjet group (5.9%) (p = 0.023). Satisfactory postoperative outcomes were obtained, with mean Rowe, WOSI, and SANE scores noted at 95 (10 to 100), 325 (25 to 1,975), and 87.5 (10 to 100), respectively. Most patients (29 in the Bankart group (85.3%) and 16 in the Latarjet group (94.1%)) were able to return to sport (p = 0.452). Conclusion The ABR and AL procedures both obtain satisfactory clinical and functional outcomes in the treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability in adolescents with a low complication rate. However, the ABR is associated with a significantly higher recurrence rate.

Abstract
Anterior glenohumeral instability is one of the most common injuries suffered from sport. Despite padding and conditioning, the shoulder joint remains particularly vulnerable to injury, especially in the setting of contact. The overall rate of anterior instability is reported to be 0.12 injuries per 1000 athlete exposures, although this is increased up to 0.40 to 0.51 in the contact athlete. Successful treatment requires consideration of restoring stability while minimizing loss of glenohumeral motion. Common treatment strategies involve addressing the pathology that results from anterior shoulder dislocation including labral detachment as well as bony defects to the humeral head and glenoid.

Abstract
Purpose To assess coracoid process morphology in an Asian population using three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) reconstruction and provide reference values for surgical treatment. Methods Data on demographic and shoulder CT characteristics were collected from 142 patients for 3D-CT-based scapular reconstruction. Ten coracoid morphological indicators and the glenoid width were measured. The morphology of the superior pillar and its undersurface were classified into common shapes. Statistical analyses included intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) analysis, Cohen's κ value, independent samples t test, Welch's t test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman and Pearson correlations, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) values. Relationships among the measured indicators, patient demographics (i.e., sex, age, height and weight) and superior pillar morphology were ascertained. Results The intraobserver and interobserver ICC values were 0.924-0.980 and 0.906-0.962, respectively. For intraobserver and interobserver agreement, Cohen's κ values were 0.927-0.950 and 0.901-0.937, respectively. Significant sex differences in coracoid measurements were noted. Correlations were observed between the coracoid indicators and glenoid width, sex, height and weight (p < 0.05). ROC curve analysis identified height as a significant predictor of safe distance, with cutoff values of 160.5 and 170.5 cm (AUC = 0.82 and 0.83) for women and men, respectively. The superior pillar morphologies included violin (24.65%), long rod (21.13%), short rod (33.80%), trapezoidal (11.97%) and wedge (8.45%) shapes, with the undersurfaces categorized as straight (16.20%), arched (76.76%) and hooked (7.04%), with significant differences in pillar widths among the different morphological types (p < 0.05). Conclusion Coracoid morphology is crucial in the preoperative planning of given shoulder surgeries, with height and sex serving as key predictors of coracoid graft length. Consideration of variations in the superior pillar shape and undersurface of the coracoid could minimize surgical complications associated with special shoulder surgery. Level of Evidence Level IV case series with no comparison.

Salvage Latarjet may provide worse outcomes in terms of recurrent instability and returning to sports compared to primary Latarjet: a systematic review of comparative studies. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:500. [PMID: 38937741 PMCID: PMC11212418 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07593-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Latarjet procedure (LP) is performed as a primary stabilization procedure (primary LP) and a salvage procedure when an earlier shoulder stabilization procedure has failed (salvage LP). However, whether primary LP or salvage LP provides better outcomes for anterior shoulder instability remains unknown. METHODS Two independent reviewers performed the literature search based on the PRISMA guidelines. A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, web of science and Cochrane Library was performed from their inception date to December 4, 2023. Inclusion criteria mainly included the comparison of postoperative outcomes between primary and salvage LP, English language, and full text availability. Two reviewers independently examined the literature, collected data, and evaluated the methodological robustness of the included studies. The Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies was used to evaluate the quality of nonrandomized studies. Recurrent instability, complications, reoperations, return to sports, patient-reported outcomes, and range of motion were assessed. Statistical evaluations were conducted using Manager V.5.4.1 (The Cochrane Collaboration, Software Update, Oxford, UK). RESULTS Twelve studies were included in the systematic review, with 940 shoulders undergoing primary LP and 631 shoulders undergoing salvage LP. Statistically significant differences in favor of primary LP were found in 2 of the 11 and 2 of 4 included studies in terms of recurrent instability and returning to the same sports (RTS) at preinjury level, respectively. In terms of the visual analog scale, subjective shoulder value and the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, 2 of the 4, 1 of the 3 and 1 of the 3 included studies reported statistically significant differences in favor of primary LP. Differences were not noticed regarding complications, reoperations, the time to RTS, the Rowe score, the Athletic Shoulder Outcome Scoring System, and forward flexion. CONCLUSION Current evidence suggests that compared with primary LP, salvage LP may provide inferior postoperative outcomes in terms of recurrent instability and the rate of RTS at preinjury level. Primary and salvage LP may yield comparable efficacy in terms of complications, reoperations, the rate of RTS, the time to RTS, pain, shoulder function, and range of motion.

Abstract
The Latarjet procedure is an established surgical treatment for recurrent glenohumeral joint instability with glenoid bone loss. Intraoperatively, the conjoint tendon and its attachement on the coracoid bone graft is routed through a split in subscapularis where the graft is fixed to and augments the anteroinferior glenoid. The objective of this in vitro study was to quantify the influence of glenohumeral joint position and conjoint tendon force on the lines of action and moment arms of subscapularis muscle sub-regions after Latarjet surgery. Eight fresh-frozen, entire upper extremities were mounted onto a testing apparatus, and a cable-pulley system was used to apply physiological muscle loading to the major shoulder muscles. The lines of action and moment arms of four subregions of subscapularis (superior, mid-superior, mid-inferior, and inferior) were quantified radiographically with the conjoint tendon unloaded and loaded while the shoulder was in (i) 0° abduction (ii) 90° abduction (iii) 90° abduction and full external rotation (ABER), and (iv) the apprehension position, defined as ABER with 30° horizontal extension. Conjoint tendon loading after Latarjet surgery significantly increased the inferior inclination of the lines of action of the mid-inferior and inferior subregions of subscapularis in the scapular plane in ABER and apprehension positions (p < 0.001), as well as decreased the horizontal flexion moment arm of the inferior subscapularis (p = 0.040). Increased subscapularis inferior inclination may ultimately increase inferior joint shear potential, while smaller horizontal flexion leverage may reduce joint flexion capacity. The findings have implications for Latarjet surgical planning and postoperative rehabilitation prescription.

[PMID: 38840788 PMCID: PMC11151773 DOI: 10.1177/23259671241253163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The success of glenoid augmentation procedures depends on accurate placement and healing of the graft to the glenoid. Different glenoid augmentation techniques have been described, but no comparative studies between them exist. Purpose To assess the bone graft position, healing, and resorption in a group of patients treated with 1 of 4 procedures: arthroscopic anterior bone-block procedure using either (1) fresh-frozen iliac crest allograft or (2) iliac crest autograft, (3) open Latarjet, or (4) arthroscopic Latarjet. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods A total of 40 patients (87.5% men; mean age, 29.5 ± 7.9 years) were included, with 10 patients in each of the procedure groups. The graft position in the axial and sagittal planes was assessed on postoperative computed tomography (CT). Graft healing and resorption were assessed in a second CT scan performed 1 year postoperatively. Qualitative variables were compared between the 4 procedures using the chi-square test, and quantitative variables were compared with the Student t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Results No differences were found between the procedures in the axial or sagittal position. The healing rate was significantly lower in the allograft bone-block group (20%) compared with the autograft bone-block (80%), open Latarjet (90%), and arthroscopic Latarjet (90%) groups (P < .001). Graft resorption developed in 17 of 40 (42.5%) cases overall. Osteolysis occurred in 100% of cases in the allograft bone-block group compared with 50% in the autograft group, 20% in the open Latarjet group, and 0% in the arthroscopic Latarjet group (P < .001). The glenoid surface area on 1-year CT scan was significantly lower in the allograft bone-block group compared with the autograft bone-block, open Latarjet, and arthroscopic Latarjet groups (P < .001). Conclusion Arthroscopic bone-block, open Latarjet, and arthroscopic Latarjet procedures provided accurate bone graft positioning. However, very high rates of osteolysis and nonunion were observed in the iliac crest fresh-frozen allograft bone-block procedure when compared with the other procedures.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This paper aims to analyze and compare the existing research on open and arthroscopic Latarjet procedures for treating anterior shoulder instability. The review will assess different factors such as graft positioning, functional outcomes, complications, and return-to-play rates for both approaches. The study's primary goal is to establish which technique yields superior outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have suggested that arthroscopic Latarjet surgery can produce outcomes similar to open surgery regarding functional scores and patient satisfaction. Some research indicates that arthroscopy may even provide slightly better results. Both techniques have similar complication rates, but arthroscopy requires a longer learning curve and operating time. It is crucial to ensure the proper placement of the graft, and some studies suggest that arthroscopy may be better at achieving accurate positioning. Both open and arthroscopic Latarjet procedures are equally effective in treating shoulder instability. While arthroscopy offers a faster recovery time and causes less soft tissue damage, it requires surgeons to undergo a steeper learning curve. The optimal graft position for both techniques is still debated. More long-term data is needed to establish superiority. Future research should compare approaches in larger cohorts and identify outcome-affecting factors to improve the treatment of shoulder instability. Both techniques are promising, but arthroscopy may be a better option as the procedure evolves into a less invasive reconstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this review was to compare clinical outcomes, return to sport (RTS), and complications in comparative studies examining patients undergoing primary Latarjet procedure versus Latarjet in the revision setting following soft tissue stabilization. METHODS A literature search was conducted using PubMed and Scopus databases using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Meta-Analyses guidelines. Inclusion criteria consisted of level I to III human clinical studies reporting clinical outcomes (Visual Analogue Pain Scale [VAS]), RTS metrics, and complications in patients following primary versus revision Latarjet procedures. Study quality was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria. RESULTS A total of seven studies, consisting of 1170 patients (n=1179 shoulders) with a mean age of 26.4 years, consisting of 91.9% males (n=1083/1179 shoulders), were identified. Mean final follow-up was 46.4 (mean range, 7.3-72.2) months. A total of 748 primary and 431 revision Latarjet procedures were analyzed. Complications were reported in 9.6% (range, 0%-24.2%) of patients undergoing primary and 20.2% (range, 0%-40.7%) in patients undergoing revision procedures (p=0.22). There was no significant difference in the RTS rate between patients undergoing primary (87.3%; range, 83.8%-92.1%) versus Latarjet as a revision procedure (78.9%; range, 60%-100%) (p=0.08). Moreover, no significant difference in postoperative VAS was observed in patients undergoing primary versus Latarjet as a revision procedure (p=0.21). Recurrent shoulder subluxation was significantly greater in patients undergoing revision (12.0%; n=31/259 shoulders; range, 0%-20.7%) compared to primary procedures (3.3%; n=27/511 shoulders; range, 0%-9%) (p<0.001). DISCUSSION Patients undergoing primary and revision Latarjet demonstrated overall similar rates of complications and return to sport. Of clinical importance, Latarjet as a revision procedure possessed a risk of recurrent subluxation 3.6 times higher than primary Latarjet. While effective, patients should be counseled regarding the differing prognosis between Latarjet as a primary or revision procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Primary bone graft stability after Latarjet surgery: biomechanical evaluation of a fixation technique with metal-free all-suture cerclage vs. cortical screws. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:e175-e184. [PMID: 37652214 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.07.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Revised: 07/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To reduce hardware-related complications in coracoid graft fixation to the anterior aspect of the glenoid, a metal-free Latarjet technique was recently introduced. The aim of this study was to compare the primary stability of a classic Latarjet procedure with 2 metal screws to a novel metal-free, all-suture cerclage method. It is hypothesized that fixation of the coracoid graft with 2 malleolar screws will provide higher primary stability compared with an all-suture cerclage technique. METHODS This biomechanical in vitro study was conducted on 12 fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders (6 matched pairs) with a mean donor age of 80 years (range, 67-89 years). Coracoid graft fixation was performed using a recently introduced all-suture cerclage technique (group A) or a classic Latarjet technique with two 4.5-mm malleolar screws (group B). The conjoint tendon was loaded with a static force of 10 N to simulate the sling effect. Graft loading with a probe head consisted of 6 ascending load levels (10-50 N, 10-100 N, 10-150 N, 10-200 N, 10-250 N, and 10-300 N) with 100 cycles each at 1 Hz. Relative motion of the bone graft to the glenoid was measured using an optic 3-dimensional system. RESULTS While loading the conjoint tendon with 10 N, no difference in mean displacement of the bone-graft was found between both groups (P = .144). During cyclic loading, a significant difference in relative displacement for both groups was already detected in load level 1 (group A: 2398.8 μm vs. group B: 125.7 μm; P = .024), and this trend continued with the following load levels (P < .05). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The study demonstrated that the innovative metal-free, all-suture cerclage fixation technique results in higher micromotion than the classic coracoid graft fixation with 2 malleolar screws. According to the present biomechanical investigation, shoulders treated with a metal-free all-suture cerclage technique might need adapted rehabilitation protocols to protect the construct and allow for graft healing.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the 30-day outcomes, including length of stay, short-term complications, hospital readmission, all-cause reoperation, and death after arthroscopic Bankart (AB) and Latarjet. METHODS Patients in the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database who had undergone either AB or Latarjet-Bristow (LB) procedures for anterior shoulder instability from 2012 to 2018 were identified using Current Procedural Terminology codes. Nearest neighbor propensity score matching was used to address any potential demographic differences. The 30-day incidence of postoperative complications were compared, and univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify risk factors associated with the incidence of post-operative complications. RESULTS A total of 7,519 patients were identified, with 6,990 (93.0%) undergoing AB and 529 (7.0%) LB. After propensity score matching, the baseline demographics were not significantly different (P > .05). There was no significant difference in rate of total adverse events between the AB and LB cohorts (P = .06). There was a significant difference in the rate of return to the operating room between LB (1.9%) when compared to AB (0%) (P < .001). Of reoperations, 40% were due to need for revision stabilization (0.8% of all LB cases) and 40% were for irrigation and debridement. There was also a significant difference in operative time (AB = 87 minutes, LB = 131 minutes; P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS Overall 30-day complication rates were low for both groups, with similar rates among AB and LB patients. However, there was a statistically significant increased rate of short-term reoperation or revision stabilization in the LB cohort. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative prognostic trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The amount of glenoid width that must be restored with a Latarjet procedure in order to reestablish glenohumeral stability has not been determined. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this article was to determine the percentage of glenoid width restoration necessary for glenohumeral stability after Latarjet by measuring anterior humeral head translation and force distribution on the coracoid graft. The hypothesis was that at least 100% of glenoid width restoration with Latarjet would be required to maintain glenohumeral stability. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Nine cadaveric shoulders were prepared and mounted on an established shoulder simulator. A lesser tuberosity osteotomy (LTO) was performed to allow accurate removal of glenoid bone. Coracoid osteotomy was performed, and the coracoid graft was sized to a depth of 10 mm. Glenoid bone was sequentially removed, and Latarjet was performed using 2 screws to reestablish 110%, 100%, 90%, and 80% of native glenoid width. The graft was passed through a subscapularis muscle split, and the LTO was repaired. A motion tracking system recorded glenohumeral translations, and force distribution was recorded using a TekScan pressure sensor secured to the glenoid face and coracoid graft. Testing conditions included native; LTO; Bankart tear; and 110%, 100%, 90%, and 80% of glenoid width restoration with Latarjet. Glenohumeral translations were recorded while applying an anteroinferior load of 44 N at 90° of humerothoracic abduction and 0° or 45° of glenohumeral external rotation. Force distribution was recorded without an anteroinferior load. RESULTS Anterior humeral head translation progressively increased as the proportion of glenoid width restored decreased. A marked increase in anterior humeral head translation was found with 90% versus 100% glenoid width restoration (10.8 ± 3.0 vs 4.1 ± 2.6 mm, respectively; P < .001). Greater glenoid bone loss also led to increased force on the coracoid graft relative to the native glenoid bone after Latarjet. A pronounced increase in force on the coracoid graft was seen with 90% versus 100% glenoid width restoration (P < .001). CONCLUSION Anterior humeral head translation and force distribution on the coracoid graft dramatically increased when <100% of the native glenoid width was restored with a Latarjet procedure. CLINICAL RELEVANCE If a Latarjet is unable to fully restore the native glenoid width, surgeons should consider alternative graft sources to minimize the risk of recurrent instability or coracoid overload.

Abstract
Bone loss has been identified as a risk factor for recurrent shoulder dislocations or failure after soft tissue repair. Although the range for "critical" bone loss is yet to be determined, glenoid and humeral bone defects should not be regarded as independent problems, but the interaction between them during shoulder motion should be evaluated as suggested by the glenoid track concept. The glenoid track concept is now widely accepted and considered essential for making decisions about surgery. Soft-tissue procedures usually work well in patients with on-track Hill-Sachs lesions but in off-track lesions do not. In this situation additional procedures should be performed.Different surgical options have been described to address off-track Hill-Sachs lesions, most commonly remplissage, Latarjet or free bone block procedures. Coracoid graft and free bone grafts convert the off-track Hill-Sachs lesion into on-track by lengthening the glenoid-track, whereas remplissage fill-in the humeral lesion so that it does not engage. In the setting of a Hill-Sachs lesion with little or no glenoid bone loss, remplissage has demonstrated satisfactory outcomes with a low complications and recurrence rate. Favorable results have been reported with glenoid bone grafting when managing isolated Hill-Sachs or bipolar lesions. Studies analyzing Latarjet and Eden-Hybinette procedures show that both procedures are safe and effective in the management of anterior glenohumeral instability. Attention should be paid to those patients with large bone defects not amenable to be restored with an isolated Latarjet that may be better addressed with an Eden-Hybinnete or adding a remplissage to the Latarjet procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is a technically challenging technique that provides well-known results. The first series reported fixation with screws. An alternative fixation technique has been proposed, using a button, to improve the reproducibility and to decrease the complications due to screws. The first reports using this fixation technique have yielded comparable rates of fusion. The objective of this study was to assess the fusion rate and bone modifications with this type of fixation. METHODS Two hundred sixteen patients were included in this prospective study. An arthroscopic Latarjet procedure, fixed with 1 button according to the Smith & Nephew technique, was performed by a single surgeon for the treatment of anterior instability. The radiographic protocol consisted of computed tomography scans at 3, 12, and 24 weeks postoperatively. We measured the coronal and sagittal positions of the bone block, distance between the bone block and the glenoid, diameter of the glenoid tunnel, fusion rate, and time to fusion. RESULTS The position was deemed flush in 92.6% of cases in the coronal plane and under the equator in 87.5% of cases in the sagittal plane. At last follow-up, we observed 9 cases of nonunion (4%), as well as 18 cases of delayed fusion. The fusion rate was 92% at 3 months and 96% at 6 months. For bone blocks that ultimately healed, the diameter of the glenoid tunnel was <2 mm in 62% of cases at 3 weeks and <1 mm in 90% of cases at 3 months. Conversely, the diameter of this tunnel significantly increased and was >3 mm in all cases of delayed union or nonunion. CONCLUSION The described technique achieved a reliable position of the bone block and a very good fusion rate with a new type of fixation. The time to obtain fusion can be lengthy, occurring between the third and sixth months. The diameter of the glenoid tunnel was the best predictive factor for fusion. Widening of the glenoid tunnel diameter >3 mm during the first 3 weeks was the most predictive factor for delayed union or nonunion of the bone block. This finding is probably explained by a sliding effect of the sutures through this tunnel, comparable to the bungee effect in anterior cruciate ligament repair in the knee.

BACKGROUND Despite the extensive literature on anterior glenohumeral instability, to date, there are no studies that report on the quality of life following a Latarjet-Bristow procedure with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of life in patients who had a Latarjet-Bristow procedure. METHODS A single-center retrospective review with a prospective recall of patients who underwent a Latarjet-Bristow technique for recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability between January 2017 and March 2020. Outcomes measures included health-related quality of life using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire and patient-related outcome measures using the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index and Rowe scores. RESULTS A total of 66 patients were identified to participate in the study; 40 (60.6%) responded and were included in the analysis. There were nine females and 31 males, with a median age of 32 years (27.5‒41 years). Three cases had bilateral anterior shoulder instability with a single joint being operated and three patients were epileptic. Physical and mental components summary of the SF-36 showed a better health-related quality of life in the general population. There was a significant strong correlation between SF-36 and Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index. However, SF-36 and Rowe score showed a fair correlation. CONCLUSION The Latarjet-Bristow procedure improves the quality of life in a general population similarly to an athletic population. The number of episodes of dislocation before surgery and the delayed surgical intervention did not increase the recurrent anterior shoulder instability rates postoperatively.

Goetti P, Martinho T, Seurot A, Bothorel H, Lädermann A. Is sling immobilization necessary after open Latarjet surgery for anterior shoulder instability? A randomized control trial. Trials 2023; 24:148. [PMID: 36850012 PMCID: PMC9969622 DOI: 10.1186/s13063-023-07180-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a current lack of knowledge regarding optimal rehabilitation and duration of sling immobilization after an open Latarjet procedure. A shift towards immediate self-rehabilitation protocols in shoulder surgery is observed to avoid postoperative stiffness and fasten return to sport. Avoiding sling immobilization could further simplify rehabilitation and provide an even faster return to activities of daily living and enhance patient satisfaction. METHODS This study is a single-center, randomized control trial. Sixty-eight patients will be instructed with the same standardized immediate postoperative self-rehabilitation protocol. Patients will be allocated 1:1 between a sling immobilization group for the first three postoperative weeks and no sling group without postoperative immobilization. The primary endpoint will be functional outcome at 6 months postoperative evaluated by the disease-specific Rowe score. Secondary endpoints will include baseline, 1.5-, 6-, and 12-month single assessment numeric evaluation (SANE) of instability score and visual analog pain scale (VAS). At the 6-month time point, graft bony union and position will be assessed by computed tomography. Motion capture technology will evaluate the baseline and 6-month postoperative range of motion. Finally, time to return to work and sport during the first postoperative year, along with patient satisfaction at one postoperative year, will also be recorded. DISCUSSION This study will allow further insights into the optimal rehabilitation protocol after open Latarjet surgery and enhance patient care by helping identify rehabilitation and coracoid graft-related factors influencing functional outcomes, bony union, range of motion, and patient satisfaction. TRIAL REGISTRATION The protocol was approved by the ethical committee board (CCER 2019-02,469) in April 2020 and by ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT04479397 ) in July 2020.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report on intraoperative and short-term postoperative adverse events after open Latarjet procedure in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. These complications were classified into different grades of severity based on the treatment required and the learning curve of the procedure. METHODS Ninety-six patients (102 shoulders) underwent open Latarjet procedure for recurrent post-traumatic anterior glenohumeral instability between 2012 and 2020. The minimum duration of patients' follow-up was 6 months. Adverse events were classified into 3 classes based on the severity and subsequent treatment. The complications in the first 50% of all cases were compared with the latter 50% to evaluate the role of learning curve on the complication rates. RESULTS The mean follow-up was 7.2 ± 2.8 months. The patients' mean age was 26.7 ± 8.9 years and consisted of 83 (86.4%) male and 13 (13.6%) female patients. The total adverse events rate was 18.6%. Adverse events requiring no additional treatment (class 1) occurred in 6 cases (5.8%) including fibrous union (3.9%) and asymptomatic resorption of the graft (1.9%). Adverse events requiring additional or extended nonoperative management (class 2) occurred in 8 cases (7.8%), including coracoid fracture (2.9%), musculocutaneous nerve palsy (1.9%), axillary nerve palsy (0.9%), suprascapular nerve palsy (0.9%), and stiffness (0.9%). All the nerve palsies recovered without long-term sequelae. Adverse events requiring secondary operative procedures (class 3) occurred in 5 cases (4.9%), including symptomatic hardware (1.9%), medial healing of the graft (0.9%), screw loosening (0.9%), and deep infection (0.9%). The rate of adverse events in revision cases was higher than primary cases in 11.7% and 6.8%, respectively (P = .119). The complication rate was significantly higher in the first half of the surgeons' practice (14.7%) than in the second half (3.9%) (P ≤ .05). CONCLUSIONS The overall complication rate reported in this open Latarjet series is 18.6%; however, the rate of class 3 adverse events that required additional surgery or long-term medical treatment was only 4.9%. Revision cases had a higher rate of complications than primary cases, and the learning curve has had a significant impact on the rate of adverse events.

Abstract
We compared the strength of screw vs suture button fixation in the Latarjet procedure for shoulder dislocation through biomechanical testing in a cadaver model. Cadavers were assigned randomly to receive screw or suture button fixation (both groups, n=5). The anteroposterior radius of the glenoid was measured, and a bony defect was created on the anteroinferior rim of the glenoid, equal to 25% of the width of the anteroposterior radius of the glenoid surface. The coracoid process was transferred into the newly created bony defect of the glenoid and fixed with two 3.5-mm partially threaded cannulated screws or 2 surgical buttons. All samples underwent tensile testing in the anteroinferior direction. Statistical analysis was performed to compare mean forces at failure between groups (alpha=.05). The mean force at failure was higher in the screw group (295 N; range, 103-534 N) than in the suture button group (133 N; range, 74-270 N) (P=.045). We found no difference between groups in ability to withstand a force of 150 N, which is the reported mean daily force threshold borne by the shoulder (P=.52). Screw fixation withstood a higher failure load than suture button fixation, indicating that screw fixation is a biomechanically superior option in the Latarjet procedure. The fixation methods did not differ in their ability to withstand the mean force borne by the shoulder during activities of daily living; thus, suture button fixation should be considered as an option in the Latarjet procedure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Traumatic shoulder instability most frequently occurs in young people often during sports events. Currently, the arthroscopic Bankart repair is the therapy of choice in the absence of extensive glenoid bone loss and has proved to be a safe and effective procedure. Nevertheless, we see recurrence of instability-especially if new trauma happens-and further data are needed to guide the right decision-making for these often young patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term outcome 10 years after arthroscopic Bankart operation in terms of satisfaction of the patient, functional result, complications, recurrent instability, and development of osteoarthritis, and to look after possible risk factors for recurrence of instability and statistical proof of these. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-nine out of 49 patients underwent physical examination of both shoulders. We could perform a postoperative shoulder a-p X-ray in 28 patients. According to Samilson, [24] the extent of osteoarthritis was measured. The Constant score and the postoperative ROWE score were determined for both shoulders as well as the WOSI Score. In 25 cases, we calculated the ISIS Score. RESULTS We could reach out to 89.6% of patients and 79.6% could be physically examined. The vast majority of 95.5% are either very satisfied or satisfied with the result at the time we ended the follow-up. The mean Constant score of 95.5 reflects this result. In contrast to this, we found at the same time in 15.3% ongoing clinical signs of instability of the concerning shoulder, even though 9.1% had to be re-operated for recurrent instability in between the follow-up timeline and we found in the X-rays (57.1% of all patients) in 35.7% at least moderate and in 10.7% severe signs of osteoarthritis. The Constant score but not the ROWE score differed significantly in patients with no or mild compared to those with moderate-to-severe osteoarthritis. CONCLUSIONS The arthroscopic Bankart stabilization procedure showed after 10 years to be a very safe operation and to be able to produce a satisfying and functional very good long-term result-reflected by the Constant score. We assume that the extent of osteoarthritis seems to be the determining factor of the very good functional result, even though ongoing instability was present in 15.3% of the patients.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:2358-2365.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dynamic anterior shoulder stabilization (DAS) with Bankart repair is a recently described stabilization technique thought to be more robust than an isolated Bankart repair while avoiding many coracoid transfer-related complications and technical demands. DAS involves transfer of the long head biceps through a subscapularis split to the anterior glenoid to create a sling effect. We hypothesize that DAS with Bankart repair will restore anterior stability in a human-cadaveric model with subcritical (15%) glenoid bone loss. METHODS Eight cadaveric shoulders were tested using an established shoulder simulator to record glenohumeral translations with an accuracy of ±0.2 mm. Shoulders were tested in 5 states-intact soft tissues, Bankart defect with 15% bone loss, isolated Bankart repair, DAS with Bankart repair, isolated DAS, and Latarjet. A 45 N anterior force was applied through the pectoralis major tendon, and translation of the humeral head was recorded and compared with repeated measures analysis of variance. RESULTS The anterior translation in the intact (native) glenoid was 4.7 mm at neutral position and 4.6 mm at 45° external rotation. Anterior translation significantly increased after introducing a Bankart defect with 15% glenoid bone loss to 9.1 mm (neutral, P = .002) and 9.5 mm (45° external rotation, P < .001). All repair conditions showed a significant decrease in anterior translation relative to Bankart defect. DAS with Bankart repair decreased anterior translation compared with the Bankart defect: 2.7 mm (neutral, P < .001) and 2.1 mm (45° external rotation, P < .001). DAS with Bankart repair significantly decreased anterior translation compared with the isolated Bankart repair (2.7 mm vs. 4.7 mm, P = .023) and the isolated DAS (2.7 mm vs. 4.3 mm, P = .041) in neutral position. The Latarjet procedure resulted in the greatest reduction in anterior translation compared with the Bankart defect: 1.2 mm (neutral, P < .001) and 1.9 mm (45° external rotation, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS DAS with Bankart repair is a viable alternative to restore anterior glenohumeral stability with a 15% glenoid defect at a greater degree than either DAS or Bankart repair alone. The Latarjet procedure was the most effective in reducing anterior translation but restrained the anterior translation significantly more than the native glenoid.

Abstract
PURPOSE To retrospectively evaluate clinical and radiologic outcomes and return to sport and to work of patients after arthroscopic Latarjet stabilization for primary instability or revision surgery; factors influencing and determining results and potential predictors for clinical outcomes also were evaluated. METHODS This is a retrospective study including patients older than 18 years old who underwent arthroscopic Latarjet stabilization for recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability with off-track lesions, or for cases of recurrence after previous surgery, from 2011 to 2017. Patients were assessed preoperatively and at a minimum 3 years of follow-up using the Rowe score, the University of California at Los Angeles Shoulder Score and Simple Shoulder Test score; the range of motion, satisfaction rate, return to work and sport, perception of discomfort during sporting and daily activities, and complications and recurrence after surgery were also evaluated. The integration of the coracoid graft and the position of the screws were examined by computed tomography scan. RESULTS At a mean follow-up time of 6 ± 2 years, 93 patients (95 shoulders) showed significant improvement of all scale scores (P < .001), 97.8% of the patients had returned to the same working condition as before surgery, and all the patients who practiced sports preoperatively (85; 91.4%) returned to sport after surgery; 97.9% of patients were satisfied with surgery. The complication rate was 5.4%, and 2 cases (2.1%) of recurrence occurred, both after high-energy trauma. At an average of 17 ± 13 months postoperatively, computed tomography scans showed 4 (6.6%) stable nonunions, 9 (14.8%) superior, and 1 (1.6%) inferior lyses of the graft; a correct positioning of the graft was observed in 86.9% of the cases. Greater satisfaction, fewer complications, less pain during daily activities, and a lower number of reoperations were associated with a shorter time between the first dislocation episode and surgery (P = .019, P < .001, P = .014, and P = .005, respectively). Complications were directly associated with older patient age at operation (P = .001). A greater number of nonunions was found in patients with increased angle between the line linking the posterior and anterior glenoid rim and the screw axis (P = .040) and a medial axial position or a lower coronal position of the graft (both P = .010). A lower age at the time of surgery predicted better Rowe scores at follow-up (P < .001), and a lower age at the time of the first episode of dislocation predicted better postoperative Simple Shoulder Test scores (P = .026). CONCLUSIONS At a mean 6-year follow-up time, excellent clinical outcomes, and radiological results, with few complications, high rates of satisfaction and return to work and sport and low sports anxiety can be expected after arthroscopic Latarjet procedure. A shorter time between the first dislocation episode and surgery was associated with higher satisfaction, fewer complications, less pain during daily activities and lower reoperations; a lower age at the operation was associated with lower complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical outcomes and radiologic evaluation of an all-arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with modified button fixation. METHODS Patients who received all-arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with modified suture button fixation between September 2015 to September 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Indications for surgery were recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with any 1 of these 3 conditions: glenoid defect >15%, contact-sport athlete, or failure after Bankart repair. Inclusion criteria included cases who received this surgery. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by University of California Los Angeles, ASES and Rowe score with a minimal follow-up of 3 years. Radiologic assessment on 3D computed tomography scan was performed preoperatively and postoperatively at different time points. Complications were also recorded. RESULTS A total of 30 patients were eventually included in this study. The mean follow-up time was 38.0 ± 2.5 months. There were 25 patients who performed contact sports. Of them, 10 patients were without glenoid defect >15% or failed Bankart repair. The remaining 20 patients had glenoid defect >15%, including 2 failed Bankart cases. Ten patients had glenoid defect < 13.5%, and the rest 20 patients had > 13.5%. UCLA, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, and Rowe score significantly improved during follow-up, and the improvement exceeded MCID for all patients. No severe complications were noted. In total, 86.7% of the graft positioning was measured as flush and 13.3% as medial. The bone union rate was 96.7% at 3 months postoperatively and at final follow-up. The remodeling process for the restoration of the normal anatomy of the lower part of glenoid was noted. CONCLUSIONS All-arthroscopic Latarjet with modified suture button fixation can achieve stable fixation of the coracoid, good clinical outcomes (all patients with improvement exceeding MCID), low complications rate. Furthermore, the bone remodeling process contributes to the recovery of the normal anatomy of anteroinferior glenoid. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4.

Abstract
Background The Latarjet procedure is an effective technique for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with glenoid bone loss. However, the inevitable destruction of the coracoacromial arch may result in humeral head translation. The aim of the study is to introduce a modified Latarjet technique with coracoacromial arch preservation as well as its short term clinical outcomes. Methods We propose a novel individualized flexible arthroscopic suture button fixation Latarjet technique called `LUtarjet' with video. Precise measurements of the coracoid process, glenoid deficiency and osteotomy plane were made preoperatively. Only three arthroscopic portals were needed and limit unique coracoid osteotomy was performed with coracoacromial arch preservation. The mini window splitting of the subscapularis was performed from the posterior to the anterior direction and the split window was as small as 8–10 mm in length. Results A total of 27 patients (25.6 ± 5.4 years) were included in the study. The average surgical duration was 55.6 ± 6.3 min and the mean follow-up time was 8.1 ± 1.5 months. The functional score was significantly improved at the last follow-up. Radiologic evidence showed that the bone graft healing was placed in the desired position. No complications were found. Conclusions We present a fast, easy, accurate, safe arthroscopic ‘LUtarjet’ technique called FEAST that can simplify the arthroscopic Latarjet process and achieve a satisfactory bone graft position and satisfactory short-term clinical outcomes. Level of evidence IV, case series.

Arthroscopic Trillat technique for chronic post-traumatic anterior shoulder instability: outcomes at 2 years of follow-up. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:e270-e278. [PMID: 35017078 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.12.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the outcomes of a new arthroscopic Trillat technique at a 2-year follow-up. Our current hypothesis was that this technique could be used for the effective treatment of chronic post-traumatic unidirectional anterior shoulder instability, and that the recurrence and complication rates, external rotation, and functional outcomes would be as good as those of the reference technique. METHODS Between April 2012 and August 2016, all patients older than 16 years who underwent the arthroscopic Trillat technique for unidirectional chronic post-traumatic anterior shoulder instability at the Dijon University Hospital (France), after the failure of well-conducted medical and rehabilitation treatment with at least 24 months of follow-up, were included. Criteria for noninclusion were association with posterior and/or inferior instabilities, voluntary instabilities, and glenoid bone loss greater than 20%. Patients attended follow-up with their surgeon before the intervention, in the immediate postoperative period, at 6 weeks, 3 and 6 months, and then by an independent observer for the last evaluation. Patients were then examined clinically with scores such as Constant, Rowe and Walch-Duplay scores, and subjective shoulder value, for shoulder range of motion, and radiographically (anteroposterior and Lamy's lateral x-rays of the operated shoulder). RESULTS Forty-nine patients and 52 shoulders were included, with a mean follow-up of 40 months (range, 24-71 months). The recurrence rate of instability was 3.8% (2 of 52). No conversion to arthrotomy was necessary. No intraoperative complications, postoperative neurological lesions, or sepsis were observed. The mean Constant score was 92.1 (77.5-100) points, Walch-Duplay 82.9 (40-100), Rowe 81.73 (5-100), and subjective shoulder value 86.1 (50-100) at the last follow-up. The arm at side external rotation limitation averaged 8.4° (-25° to 40°) and the external rotation with 90° arm abduction limitation 0.34° (-5° to 15°). Forty-one patients (79%) resumed their sports activity at the same level. Fifty patients (96%) were satisfied to very satisfied. One patient developed nonunion of the coracoid process and subsequently underwent a Latarjet procedure with a good outcome. CONCLUSIONS The arthroscopic Trillat procedure offers good outcomes as a first-line treatment for chronic anterior post-traumatic glenohumeral instability. It should be excluded in cases of glenoid loss greater than 20%.

Abstract
Recurrent shoulder instability with glenoid bone deficiency remains an increasing risk for failed shoulder stabilization surgery. Numerous free bone block procedures for primary treatment of anterior shoulder stability have been introduced as an alternative for the Latarjet procedure, including both autografts and allografts. Among such options is the fresh distal tibial allograft (DTA), a dense weightbearing bone without donor site morbidity and excellent conformity to the native glenoid. The aim of this Technical Note is therefore to describe our surgical technique for use of fresh DTA as a free bone block choice in the setting of primary anterior glenoid reconstruction in a patient with recurrent shoulder instability.

Abstract
Recurrent instability associated with glenoid bone loss is a commonly encountered problem after anterior shoulder dislocation. Surgical management with bony augmentation can be achieved with several allograft or autograft options. Fixation strategies also vary, including screw, suture button, or suture anchor fixation. Concerns exist regarding screw fixation because of the technical difficulty of a medial portal establishment, as well as the potential for graft osteolysis. Suture button fixation for osteochondral graft fixation has been previously described. However, no description of graft fixation using suture anchors exists. We describe an arthroscopic technique for glenoid augmentation using distal tibial allograft with suture anchor fixation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To systematically review and compare the surgical indications, technique, perioperative treatment, outcomes measures, and how recurrence of instability was reported and defined after coracoid transfer procedures. METHODS A systematic review of the literature examining open coracoid transfer outcomes was conducted according to PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines using the Cochrane registry, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases from 2010 to 2020. Inclusion criteria included open coracoid transfer techniques, including the Bristow or Latarjet technique, full text availability, human studies, and English language. RESULTS A screen of 1,096 coracoid transfer studies yielded 72 studies, which met inclusion criteria with a total of 4,312 shoulders. One study was a randomized controlled trial, but the majority of them were retrospective. Of those, 65 studies reported on postoperative outcome scores, complication rates, revision rate, and recurrence rates. Forty-three reported on range of motion results. Thirty studies reported on primary coracoid transfer only, 7 on revision only, and 30 on both primary and revision, with 5 not reporting. Average follow-up was 26.9 months (range: 1-316.8 months). Indications for coracoid transfer, technique, perioperative care, complications, and how failure was reported varied greatly among studies. CONCLUSIONS Latarjet and coracoid transfer surgery varies greatly in its indications, technique, and postoperative care. Further, there is great variation in reporting of complications, as well as recurrence and failure and how it is defined. Although coracoid transfer is a successful treatment with a long history, greater consistency regarding these factors is essential for appropriate patient education and surgeon knowledge. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, systematic review of Level I-IV studies.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the patient-reported outcomes of open Latarjet (OL) compared to arthroscopic Latarjet (AL) for anterior shoulder instability. Methods A retrospective review of patients who underwent either OL or AL for anterior shoulder instability between 2011 and 2019 was performed. Recurrent instability, visual analog scale (VAS) score, Shoulder Instability-Return to Sport after Injury (SIRSI), Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), Western Ontario Shoulder Instability (WOSI) score, patient satisfaction, willingness to undergo surgery again, and return to work/sport (RTW/RTS) were evaluated. A P value of < .05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results Our study included 102 patients in total; 72 patients treated with OL, and 30 treated with AL. There were no demographic differences between the two groups (P > .05 for all). At final follow up (mean of 51.3 months), there was no difference between those that underwent OL or AL in the reported WOSI, VAS, VAS during sports, SSV, and SIRSI scores, nor in patient satisfaction, or whether they would undergo surgery again (P > .05). Overall, there was no significant difference in the total rate of RTP (65% vs 60.9%; P = .74), or timing of RTP (8.1 months vs 7 months; P = .35). Additionally, there was no significant difference in the total rate of RTW (93.5% vs 95.5%; P = .75). Overall, 3 patients in the OL group and 2 patients in the AL group had recurrent instability events (6.9% vs 6.7%; P = .96), with no significant difference in the rate of recurrent dislocation (4.2% vs 3.3%; P = .84). Conclusion In patients with anterior shoulder instability, both the OL and AL are reliable treatment options, with a low rate of recurrent instability, and similar patient-reported outcomes.

Abstract
Bristow-Latarjet procedure has been widely regarded as a reliable and satisfactory operation for recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability, especially for patients with significant glenoid bone loss or high sports demand. Once failed, however, the subsequent revision surgery could be challenging. Eden-Hybinette procedure is the most common operation for revision of failed Bristow-Latarjet. It can perfectly restore the bone defect of the failed Bristow-Latarjet by harvesting a proper size of iliac bone block. Furthermore, several studies have shown the advantages of using suture button fixation in the revision surgery for failed Bristow-Latarjet procedure. However, the potential inferior biomechanical strength of suture button fixation is still a concern. This Technical Note introduced an arthroscopic "double-inlay" Eden-Hybinette procedure with modified suture button fixation for the revision of failed Bristow-Latarjet. With its "quadruple" reinforcement effect, this procedure can achieve an excellent biomechanical strength of fixation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To introduce an arthroscopic "inlay" Bristow procedure based on the Mortise-Tenon joint structure concept using suture button fixation, and to evaluate its clinical and radiology results postoperatively with a minimal 3-year follow-up. METHODS A total of 56 patients who received arthroscopic "inlay" Bristow procedure with suture button fixation between June 2015 to June 2016 were eventually enrolled in this study. Radiological assessment on the 3D CT scan was performed preoperatively, immediately after operation, and postoperatively at the end of 3 months, 6 months and the final follow-up. Complications postoperatively were also recorded. RESULTS A total of 56 patients were finally included in this study. The mean follow-up time was (36.1±3.7) months. Coracoid grafts (middle point) were positioned at about 4 o'clock (123.8°±12.3°) in the En-face view. In the axial view, 95% (53/56) of the grafts positioning were measured as flush, 5% (3/56) as medial. Bone union rate was 96.4% at the final follow-up. At the end of 3 months, 6 months, and the final follow-up, the length of the coracoid graft was 96.9%±4.9%, 91.9%±6.2%, and 91.6%±6.6% of the immediate postoperative length, respectively. Compared with the immediate postoperative length, the length measured at the end of 3 months shortened not significantly (t=2.12, P > 0.05). The coracoid graft shortened more pronouncedly 6 months postoperatively (t=4.98, P < 0.05) and then remained almost constant over time (t=-0.75, P > 0.05), with all grafted coracoid graft retaining more than 90% of their initial length by the 3-year follow-up. And new bone formation at the junction between the coracoid graft and glenoid neck in the axial view were obviously noted in 25 cases. The quantitative evaluation showed that the glenoid area in En-face view was significantly increased at the final follow-up than that immediately after surgery [(9.72±1.22) cm2 vs. (9.42±1.11) cm2]. No degenerative changes were noted on CT images in all the patients at the final follow-up. CONCLUSION This study reported a series of "inlay" Bristow procedure with suture button fixation for recurrent shoulder dislocation, providing satisfactory union rate and excellent graft positioning. And using suture button fixation instead of screw can reduce osteolysis and complications related to hardware implantation. Moreover, the bone remodeling between the coracoid process and glenoid could be beneficial to restoring the anterior stability of shoulder joint in a long term follow-up.

Abstract
Introduction: The movement and steadiness of the shoulder joint is due to both the dynamic and static stabilisers. Recurrent anterior shoulder instability is common due to the Bankart lesion or the Hill Sachs lesion. The bone loss and soft tissue failure due to these lesions causing instability is well compensated by Latarjet procedure which acts by triple blocking effect of the bone graft, the sling effect of the conjoint tendon of subscapularis and the ligament of the coracoacromial ligament stump. Materials and methods: Middle-aged patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and a mid-range instability on clinical assessment with an isolated glenoid bone loss of 20% or Bankart lesion with engaging Hill Sachs lesion were selected for the study. The surgical procedure included a subscapularis split to expose the glenoid. The coracoid graft harvested was prefixed with Kirschner wires and placed flush over the glenoid ensuring no medial or lateral overhang and fixed with 4.0mm cancellous screws with the washer. The functional outcome was measured with the ROWE score and ASES score and the movements were evaluated. Results: A total of 24 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Post-operatively at final follow-up, the mean ROWE score was 97.08 ±8.45 and the mean ASES score was 94.4±9.10. One patient had screw breakage as a complication and another had restriction of movement which was managed with physiotherapy. Conclusion: Open Latarjet is an effective procedure for recurrent anterior shoulder instability in non-athletic middle-aged patients as a excellent functional outcome was achieved with this technique. We therefore recommend open Latarjet as an alternative to arthroscopic treatment in developing countries where patient affordability and the availability of the resources are the issues.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the 90-day complication rate between the open and arthroscopic Latarjet procedure. A retrospective review of patients who underwent an open or arthroscopic Latarjet procedure at NYU Langone Health between 2012 and 2019 was performed. The complications, readmissions, and reoperations within 90 days were assessed. Outcomes were compared between the two approaches, and a p value of < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. The study included 150 patients (open: 110; arthroscopic: 40), with no patients lost to follow-up within the first 90 days. Both cohorts were similar in terms of patient demographics. No intra-operative complications were observed in either group. Overall, there were 4 post-operative complications with the open approach and 2 with the arthroscopic approach (3.6% and 5.0%, respectively; n.s.) during the study period. Three patients required a readmission within the 90-day period; one patient in both groups required a revision Latarjet for graft fracture, and one patient in the open Latarjet required irrigation and debridement for deep infection (n.s.). With the open approach, there were 2 (2.3%) wound complications, 1 graft complication, and 1 (1.1%) nerve injury. With the arthroscopic approach, there was 1 (2.8%) wound complication and 1 (2.8%) hardware complication. The safety, and 90-day complication and readmission profile of arthroscopic Latarjet is similar to open Latarjet procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.

Abstract
Bony lesions are highly prevalent in anterior shoulder instability and can be a significant cause of failure of stabilisation procedures if they are not adequately addressed. The glenoid track concept describes the dynamic interaction between the humeral head and glenoid defects in anterior shoulder instability. It has been beneficial for understanding the role played by bone defects in this entity. As a consequence, the popularity of glenoid augmentation procedures aimed to treat anterior glenoid bone defects; reconstructing the anatomy of the glenohumeral joint has risen sharply in the last decade. Although bone defects are less common in posterior instability, posterior bone block procedures can be indicated to treat not only posterior bony lesions, attritional posterior glenoid erosion or dysplasia but also normal or retroverted glenoids to provide an extended glenoid surface to increase the glenohumeral stability. The purpose of this review was to analyse the rationale, current indications and results of surgical techniques aimed to augment the glenoid surface in patients diagnosed of either anterior or posterior instability by assessing a thorough review of modern literature. Classical techniques such as Latarjet or free bone block procedures have proven to be effective in augmenting the glenoid surface and consequently achieving adequate shoulder stability with good clinical outcomes and early return to athletic activity. Innovations in surgical techniques have permitted to perform these procedures arthroscopically. Arthroscopy provides the theoretical advantages of lower morbidity and faster recovery, as well as the identification and treatment of concomitant pathologies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Latarjet procedure is commonly performed for recurrent anterior shoulder instability with glenoid side bone loss. Classic Latarjet procedure can be performed using specially designed drill guides, jigs, or by freehand technique. Here we have described a technical note on classic Latarjet procedure performed with freehand technique utilizing simple rulers and caliper. The functional and radiological outcomes of our patients have also been analysed. MATERIAL AND METHODS 149 open classic Latarjet procedures were performed using our technique between March 2015 and July 2018. The mean age of the patients was 32.95 years (Range 22-59 years). The functional outcome of the patients was measured using Western Ontario Shoulder Instability (WOSI) and Oxford Shoulder Instability Score (OSIS) at 2 years of follow-up. Screw and graft positioning were studied in 24 consecutive patients with a postoperative computed tomography (CT) scan. RESULTS There was no incidence of recurrent subluxation or dislocation post-surgery. Mean OSIS score increased from 15.63 ± 3.20 preoperatively to 42.44 ± 3.88 postoperatively (p value < 0.05). WOSI score decreased significantly from 62.54% ± 8.24 to 10.26 ± 6.33 postoperatively at 2-year follow-up (p value < 0.05). Postoperative CT scan also showed satisfactory screw placement in all patients. CONCLUSION Open Latarjet procedure performed using freehand technique provides good functional and radiological outcomes in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability with glenoid side bone loss.

Abstract
Background Nearly all studies describing shoulder stabilization focus on male patients. Little is known regarding the clinical outcomes of female patients undergoing shoulder stabilization, and even less is understood about females with glenoid bone loss. Purpose To assess the clinical outcomes of female patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability treated with the Latarjet procedure. Study Design Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods All cases of female patients who had recurrent anterior shoulder instability with ≥15% anterior glenoid bone loss and underwent the Latarjet procedure were analyzed. Patients were evaluated after a minimum 2-year postoperative period with scores of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons form, Simple Shoulder Test, and pain visual analog scale. Results Of the 22 patients who met our criteria, 5 (22.7%) were lost to follow-up, leaving 17 (77.2%) available for follow-up with a mean ± SD age of 31.7 ± 12.9 years. Among these patients, 16 (94.1%) underwent 1.6 ± 0.73 ipsilateral shoulder operations (range, 1-3) before undergoing the Latarjet procedure. Preoperative indications for surgery included recurrent instability with bone loss in all cases. After a mean follow-up of 40.2 ± 22.9 months, patients experienced significant score improvements in the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons form, Simple Shoulder Test, and pain visual analog scale (P < .05 for all). There were 2 reoperations (11.8%). There were no cases of neurovascular injuries or other complications. Conclusion Female patients with recurrent shoulder instability with glenoid bone loss can be successfully treated with the Latarjet procedure, with outcomes similar to those of male patients in the previously published literature. This information can be used to counsel female patients with recurrent instability with significant anterior glenoid bone loss.

High Variability of the Definition of Recurrent Glenohumeral Instability: An Analysis of the Current Literature by a Systematic Review. Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil 2021; 3:e951-e966.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the definitions for recurrence used in the literature, assess the consensus in using these definitions, and determine the impact of these definitions on recurrence rates. Methods A literature search was performed in PubMed and EMBASE including studies from 2000 to 2020 reporting on recurrence rates after anterior arthroscopic shoulder instability surgery. Dislocation, apprehension, subluxation and recurrence rates were compared. Results Ninety-one studies were included. In 68% of the eligible studies, recurrence rates are not well defined. Thirty (33%) studies did not report on dislocations, 45 (49%) did not report on subluxations, and 58 (64%) did not report on apprehension. Seventeen different definitions for recurrence of instability, 4 definitions of dislocations, and 8 definitions of subluxation were used. Conclusion Recurrence rates are poorly specified and likely underreported in the literature, hampering comparison with results of other studies. This highlights the need for a consensus on definition of recurrence across shoulder instability studies. We recommend not using the definition recurrence of instability anymore. We endorse defining dislocations as a radiographically confirmed dislocation or a dislocation that is manually reduced, subluxations as the feeling of a dislocation that can be (spontaneously) reduced without the need for a radiographically confirmed dislocation, and a positive apprehension sign as fear of imminent dislocation when placing the arm in abduction and external rotation during physical examination. Reporting on the events resulting in a dislocation or subluxation aids in making an estimation of the severity of instability. Level of Evidence Level IV, systematic review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alterations in the anatomical relationships of the musculocutaneous (MCN) and axillary nerves and the influence of arm positioning on these relationships after a Latarjet procedure have been demonstrated in the cadaver, but there are no studies in the literature that establish if there is any neurophysiological repercussion. METHODS We retrospectively identified 24 patients with a primary or revision open Latarjet procedure. A prospective clinical (Constant-Murley, Rowe and Walch-Duplay and active range of motion), radiographic (with CT), and electrodiagnostic evaluation was made at the most recent follow-up. RESULTS Nonunion occurred in four patients (22%); there were, as well, one case of partial coracoid reabsorption (5%) and two (11%) with mild glenohumeral osteoarthritis. In the anatomical position, we found no alterations in the musculocutaneous nerve and two cases (11%) in the axillary nerve slight motor unit loss. In the risk position, 11 cases (61%) had neurophysiological involvement (36% had neurophysiological changes in the musculocutaneous nerve and 64% in the axillary nerve). No differences between patients with or without neurophysiologic changes were found: Constant 87/83; Rowe 89/90; Walch-Duplay 84/78; Forward elevation 175º/170º, abduction 165°/175°; external rotation 48°/45°. CONCLUSION The rate of clinical electromyographic changes in the axillary and MCN in the abducted and externally rotated arm position (risk dislocation position) is higher than in neutral position. Nonunion of the coracoid process must play a role in these neurophysiological changes. Although in the medium-term they don't have clinical impact, further randomized prospective studies with a larger sample size are necessary to determine their true repercussion.

Abstract
Introduction Shoulder instability injuries are common in sports involving collisions and overhead movements. Arthroscopic Bankart repair and the open Latarjet are two commonly used surgical stabilisation procedures. There is a lack of knowledge surrounding movement strategies, joint loading and muscle strength after each of these procedures. This study will compare: (1) shoulder joint neuromechanics during activities of daily living and an overhead sporting task; (2) shoulder range of motion; (3) shoulder strength; and (4) self-reported shoulder function and health status, between individuals who have undergone an arthroscopic Bankart repair versus open Latarjet. Methods and analysis This is a prospective cohort, single-centre, non-randomised parallel arm study of surgical interventions for athletic shoulder instability injuries. Thirty participants will be recruited. Of these, 20 will have experienced one or more traumatic shoulder instability injuries requiring surgical stabilisation—and will undergo an arthroscopic Bankart repair or open Latarjet procedure. The remaining 10 participants will have no history of shoulder instability injury and act as controls. Participants will undergo baseline testing and be followed up at 3, 6 and 12 months. A two-way (group×time) analysis of variance with repeated measures on one factor (ie, time) will compare each outcome measure between groups across time points. Ethics and dissemination This study was approved by the Barwon Health and Deakin University Human Research Ethics Committees. Outcomes will be disseminated through publications in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at relevant scientific conferences. Trial registration number Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12620000016932).

Abstract
Background The Latarjet and bone block procedures can be secured with screws or cortical buttons. The purpose of this biomechanical study was to compare quadruple buttons vs. double screws for fixation of anterior glenoid bone grafts. Methods Twelve cadaveric scapulae (6 pairs) were denuded, resected, and potted. Pairs were randomized to quadruple-button or double-screw fixation after creation of a 15% anterior glenoid defect. The specimens underwent cyclic uniaxial compressive glenoid loading between 50 and 200 N for 1000 cycles at 1 Hz. Testing was repeated for conjoint tendon loads of 0 N (simulating a bone block procedure), 10 N, and 20 N (simulating a Latarjet procedure). Peak resultant relative coracoid graft displacement was optically tracked at 3 points (superior, central, and inferior) on the edge of the coracoid. Results No significant differences were found between buttons and screws for bone block applications or with 10 N of conjoint tendon loading (P ≥ .095). At 20 N of conjoint tendon loading, however, the screws were significantly more stable than the buttons (P ≤ .023). During the initial 20-N conjoint load application, all 3 points displaced significantly more with the button reconstruction than with the screws (P ≤ .01). Overall, mean displacements did not exceed 1 mm at any position on the coracoid, regardless of testing condition. Conclusions The quadruple-button technique is comparable to screws when the coracoid is used as a bone block or when conjoint tendon loading is minimized. However, at higher conjoint tendon loads, the screws produced a more stable coracoid graft than the buttons.

Abstract
The specific approach to rehabilitation after surgical management of the unstable shoulder is dependent on the severity and chronicity of the instability. Establishing dynamic stability throughout the athlete's functional range of movement is critical to a successful outcome. The pace progression is guided by surgical (technique, injury pattern, and strength of repair) and patient factors (healing potential, prior health status, and psychosocial factors). The primary goal of treatment is to restore function and return the athlete to sport. The process should be guided by surpassing functional criteria for progression and tissue healing time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate mid- and long-term outcomes following the Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder instability. METHODS PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane libraries were systematically searched, in line with PRISMA guidelines, for studies reporting on outcomes following the Latarjet procedure with minimum five-year follow-up. Outcomes of studies with follow-up between 5 and 10 years were compared to those with minimum follow-up of 10 years. RESULTS Fifteen studies reporting on 1052 Latarjet procedures were included. Recurrent instability occurred in 127 patients, with an overall random summary estimates in studies with a minimum five-year follow-up of 0-18% (I2 = 90%) compared to 5-26% (I2 = 59%) for studies with a minimum 10-year follow-up. Overall rates for return to sports, non-instability related complications, and progression of arthritis estimated at 65-100% (I2 = 87%), 0-20% (I2 = 85%), and 8-42% (I2 = 89%) for the minimum five-year follow-up studies and 62-93% (I2 = 86%), 0-9% (I2 = 28%), and 9-71% (I2 = 91%) for the minimum 10-year follow-up studies, respectively. All studies reported good-to-excellent mean PRO scores at final follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The Latarjet is a safe and effective procedure for patients with shoulder instability. The majority of patients return to sport, though at long-term follow-up, a trend towards an increased incidence of recurrent instability is appreciated, while a significant number may demonstrate arthritis progression.

Abstract
PURPOSE The ideal treatment strategy for traumatic anterior shoulder instability with glenoid bone loss in young, physically active patients is still controversial. This study examines sporting activity, the ability to practice sports and the ability to return to sports after the arthroscopic Latarjet procedure. METHODS A total of 47 physically active patients with an average age of 24.5 ± 5.9 years were included in the study and evaluated at a minimum of two years after surgical treatment using shoulder and sport-specific scores. The shoulder sport activity score, Brophy marx activity score, Athletic shoulder outcome scoring system and the SPORTS score were used to assess the ability to practice sports, the sporting activity and the ability to return to sports. To assess functional outcome and shoulder stability, the evaluation was conducted using the Western Ontario shoulder instability index, the Constant score, the American shoulder and elbow surgeon score, and the Subjective shoulder value. RESULTS 89.4% of the patients examined were able to perform the sport they had previously practiced after an average of 4.6 ± 2.0 months. Overhead athletes and martial arts athletes demonstrated a significantly lower return to sports rate than non-collision/non-overhead athletes (p = 0.01). With regard to sport-, instability-, or function-specific scores, no significant difference was found between patients after primary Latarjet procedure and patients after Latarjet procedure following a failed open or arthroscopic Bankart repair. All scores showed good to very good functional results on average. Two patients suffered a traumatic recurrent instability (4.1%) during the follow-up period and were therefore excluded from this study. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic Latarjet procedure presents a good surgical option, especially for young, physically active patients; it has very good clinical outcome, a high return to sports rate and a low probability of recurrent dislocation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This retrospective study aims to compare the outcome of the Latarjet procedure when used as a primary or revision procedure for recurrent anterior gleno-humeral instability. METHODS One hundred and ninety-seven patients underwent 205 open Latarjet procedures during the period 2006-2015 (mean follow-up 5.6 years). Sixty shoulders had failure of a previous stabilisation requiring revision to the Latarjet procedure. Outcomes were measured using the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score. Survival analyses were performed using Kaplan-Meier curves, and multiple linear regression modelling was utilised to identify predictors of functional outcome (p < 0.05). RESULTS Two shoulders had recurrent dislocations in the cohort of 205 (1.0%). Six shoulders underwent further surgery for non-instability complications (2.9%). There were no significant differences in the clinical or functional outcome between patients undergoing a primary Latarjet procedure and those who required revision of a failed soft-tissue stabilisation. Ninety-two per cent of patients were satisfied with their shoulder following surgery. Patient-reported instability and satisfaction was significantly associated with poorer functional scores. DISCUSSION The Latarjet procedure successfully prevents recurrent anterior instability and is associated with high levels of satisfaction. Patient-reported outcome measures suggest no difference between primary and revision procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shoulder dislocations can be devastating for an athlete. Coracoid bone block transfer is often used for the treatment of recurrent shoulder instability. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES The primary purpose of this study was to determine the rate and mean time of return to sport in athletes after a coracoid bone block transfer at the pre-operative level of competition, a lower level, or a different level. We also sought to determine how return to sport rates after a coracoid bone block procedure compared with rates after several comparator interventions. Finally, we looked to determine the post-operative clinical outcomes and complications reported after a coracoid bone block procedure. METHODS We systematically searched three databases (PubMed, Embase, and MEDLINE) for studies reporting return to sport after a coracoid bone block procedure. RESULTS A total of 52 studies (with levels of evidence ranging from II to IV) evaluating 2953 shoulders in 2888 patients were included in this systematic review. The mean rate of return to sport at any level was 88.4% (2291 of 2592 patients). However, the rate of return to the pre-operative level was 70.3% (1387 of 1974 patients). The mean time to return to sport was 5.38 months (range 21 days to 36 months). The rate of return to sport was higher after the Latarjet procedure, as compared with Bankart repair (87.0% and 75.8%, respectively). All studies showed improvements in clinical outcome measures after coracoid bone block intervention. The cumulative complication rate was found to be 6.46% (158 of 2446 patients). CONCLUSION Coracoid bone block transfer allows for a high rate of return to sport, although the rate of return to sport at athletes' pre-operative level is lower. The rate of return to sport after Latarjet procedure is higher in comparison with Bankart repair. Additionally, coracoid bone block transfer is associated with improvements in a number of clinical outcome measures. Common post-operative complications include non-union between bone block and glenoid, hematoma, and infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A knowledge of the anthropometric characteristics of the coracoid graft (CG) that can be obtained by the open and arthroscopic Latarjet techniques may be beneficial in the preoperative planning and intraoperative decision making for coracoid osteotomy and transfer. We have not found any study that compared the morphology of the CG that can be obtained from open and arthroscopic Latarjet techniques. The purpose of this study was to verify if the basic anthropometric characteristics of CGs are equivalent. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesize that the basic anthropometric characteristics of the CGs are similar. METHODS Twenty fresh-frozen human paired cadaveric shoulder specimens that had been randomly distributed in two groups of 10 specimens each were used. Two surgeons, each with experience in performing the open and arthroscopic Latarjet technique, performed these procedures in each of the respective groups (OG, open group; AG, arthroscopic group). A CT scan was performed. Using the volume rendering technique, a metric analysis of the volume, area and length of the CG were performed, evaluated and statistically analysed. RESULTS There were no significant differences in length (p=0.162) (mean length, 22.6mm for OG and 23.6mm for AG). There were significant differences in the volume (p=0.031) and area (p=0.007) of the CG, being lower in the OG (mean volume, 2.8 cm3 for OG and 3.6 cm3 for AG; mean area, 9.9 cm2 for OG and 12.8 cm2 for AG). No significant differences were observed by sex or laterality. CONCLUSION The mean lengths of the CGs that were obtained by each technique are equivalent. However, the areas and volumes of the grafts are different, being lower in the open surgery. These differences have not been an impediment to perform the technique. Our results corroborates that consolidation is more related to the preparation and placement than to the anthropometric characteristics of the CG. No significant differences were observed by sex or laterality. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Basic Science.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rugby has the highest incidence of traumatic injuries of any sport, and glenohumeral injuries result in the lengthy delay in return to play. The purpose of this study is to survey surgeons from the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), and the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS) to evaluate the current state of management of anterior glenohumeral instability, and compare the differences in practices. METHODS A survey of surgeons from ASES and BESS was conducted. Treatment options were proposed in a variety of clinical scenarios of glenohumeral instability. The time of immobilization post-operatively, return to play, and attitudes on current contact regulations. Results were compared using the chi-square test or t-test. RESULTS Ninety-seven surgeons responded to the survey. There was a significant difference in treatment between ASES and BESS surgeons in the setting of primary dislocation (p < 0.05), but not recurrent dislocation (p > 0.05). The period of immobilization following injury and surgery was different between both treating groups. There was a significant difference in return to play between ASES and BESS surgeons with arthroscopic stabilization and open Bankart repair (p < 0.05), but not following conservative treatment or the Latarjet procedure (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There remains wide variance on the management of glenohumeral instability in rugby union players among surgeons. While immobilization times post-operatively were similar, the BESS surgeons were more confident in allowing earlier return to play. There is also a significant concern that contact levels should be regulated to protect player safety. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4 (case series).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coracoid graft positioning, fixation, and bone union are key factors affecting the clinical outcomes of Bristow and Latarjet procedures. We developed an arthroscopic "inlay" Bristow procedure based on the "mortise-tenon" joint structure concept using suture button fixation to achieve more stable fixation and better bone union of the graft. PURPOSE To evaluate the positioning of the coracoid graft, bone union rate, and clinical outcomes of this arthroscopic inlay Bristow procedure with suture button fixation. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS A total of 62 patients who received the arthroscopic inlay Bristow procedure with suture button fixation between June 2015 to June 2016 were eligible for inclusion, and 56 patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. Radiological assessment on 3-dimensional computed tomography scan was performed preoperatively, immediately after the operation, and postoperatively at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and the final follow-up. Pre- and postoperative clinical results were also assessed. RESULTS A total of 56 patients were included in this study. The mean ± SD follow-up time was 36.1 ± 3.7 months. Coracoid grafts (middle point) were positioned at 4 o'clock (range, 123.8°± 12.3°) in the sagittal view. In the axial view, 94.6% (53/56) of the graft positioning was measured as flush and 5.4% (3/56) as medial. Neither lateral nor too medial positioning was noted. The bone union rate was 96.4% at final follow-up. The mean visual analog scale score for pain during motion, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and Rowe score all improved significantly after surgery-from 4.8 ± 2.6 to 1.1 ± 1.0, 69.2 ± 12.5 to 92.5 ± 7.0, and 33.5 ± 12.1 to 96.0 ± 4.9 at last follow-up, respectively. Almost all patients (98%; 55/56) returned to sports within 1 year after surgery at the same or higher level as compared with their preinjury performance. The mean subjective value for sports participation was 90.3% ± 7.1% (range, 70%-100%) as compared with the normal shoulder. The overall complication rate was 3.6%. No degenerative changes were noted in any patients. CONCLUSION This study reported the first series of an inlay Bristow procedure with suture button fixation for recurrent shoulder dislocation, providing a satisfactory union rate and excellent graft positioning with a low complication rate. The mortise-tenon joint structure can provide excellent graft fixation and healing, while using suture button fixation instead of screw fixation could reduce osteolysis and complications related to hardware implantation.
