Abstract
Background
Failed Latarjet procedures pose a surgical challenge due to complex anatomical issues. This systematic review investigates salvage techniques for recurrent instability following a Latarjet procedure.
Methods
A search was conducted on MEDLINE and PubMed Central following the methodology registered to International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews. Inclusion criteria focused on identifying revision procedures following a Latarjet procedure. Exclusion criteria filtered out irrelevant studies, such as those focused on Bankart procedures. After a multistage selection process, 10 eligible studies were included for data extraction.
Results
The most frequently utilized technique for salvage was variations of the Eden-Hybinette procedure. Complications associated with these salvage procedures include graft-related problems and donor site morbidity. Patients reported significant improvements in multiple patient-reported outcome scores, and multiple studies indicated high rates of return to sports activities. However, it is noteworthy that there remains an average recurrence rate of 7%.
Discussion
The review emphasizes the limited therapeutic options available largely due to shoulder anatomy alterations. Despite promising trends in patient-reported outcomes, recurrence remains possible post-salvage surgeries.
Conclusion
Addressing recurrent instability after a Latarjet procedure continues to be a unique surgical challenge. However, this systematic review highlights encouraging indications, with positive trends evident in patient-reported outcomes.
