Graft Position, Healing, and Resorption in Anterior Glenohumeral Instability: A Comparison of 4 Glenoid Augmentation Techniques. Orthop J Sports Med 2024; 12:23259671241253163. [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 To analyze radiographic outcomes by conventional radiography, computed tomography (CT), or both and complication rates of open coracoid transfer at a minimum of 12-months follow-up. METHODS A literature search was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, using PubMed, Medline (Ovid), and EMBASE library databases. Inclusion criteria were clinical studies reporting on open Latarjet as the primary surgical procedure(revision coracoid transfer after failed prior stabilization excluded) with postoperative radiographic outcomes at a minimum mean 1-year follow-up. Patient demographics, type of postoperative imaging modality, and radiographic outcomes and complications including graft union, osteoarthritis, and osteolysis were systematically reviewed. Data were summarized as ranges of reported values for each outcome metric. Each radiographic outcome was graphically represented in a Forest plot with point estimates of the incidence of radiographic outcomes with corresponding 95% confidence intervals and I2. RESULTS Thirty-three studies met inclusion criteria, with a total of 1,456 shoulders. The most common postoperative imaging modality was plain radiography only (n = 848 [58.2%]), both CT and radiography (n = 287 [19.7%]), and CT only (n = 321 [22.1%]). Overall, the reported graft union rate ranged from 75% to 100%, of which 79.8% (n = 395) were detected on plain radiography. The most common reported postoperative radiographic complications after the open coracoid transfer were osteoarthritis (range, 0%-100%, pooled mean 28%), graft osteolysis (range, 0%-100%, pooled mean 30%), nonunion (range, 0%-32%, pooled mean 5.1%), malpositioned graft (range, 0%-75%, pooled mean 14.75%), hardware issues (range, 0%-9.1%, pooled mean 5%), and bone block fracture (range, 0%-8%, pooled mean 2.1%). Graft healing was achieved in a majority of cases (range, 75%-100%). CONCLUSION Postoperative radiographic outcomes after open coracoid transfer vary greatly in definition, classification, and imaging modality of choice. Greater consistency in postoperative radiographic outcomes is essential to evaluate graft healing, osteolysis, and nonunion. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, systematic review of Level III-IV studies.

Abstract
Purpose To report on operative and clinical outcomes in a series of shoulders treated with arthroscopic Latarjet performed in the lateral decubitus position. Methods Patients with shoulders that underwent arthroscopic Latarjet in the lateral decubitus position were identified. Data were retrospectively collected, including patient demographics, operative times, intra- and postoperative complications, and clinical and functional outcomes. Descriptive statistics were performed. Results Eighteen shoulders in 17 patients were included in the study with a mean follow-up of 14 ± 12.1 months (range, 4-39 months). The mean operative time for all procedures was 132.2 ± 18.0 minutes, and the mean operative time for the first half of the cohort was significantly longer than that of the second half (141.6 ± 14.2 minutes vs 122.8 ± 17.0 minutes, P = .02). There were no intraoperative complications, and no patients required a conversion to open surgery. One patient experienced a recurrent dislocation after a traumatic event but was able to be treated nonoperatively. Preoperative and postoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were able to be collected on 8 of 18 patients (44.4%). Although all PROMs demonstrated improvements postoperatively, only the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Index displayed a statistically significant increase (P < .05). Five of 8 (62.5%) shoulders demonstrated bony fusion on postoperative computed tomography scan. Of those eligible, 100% of patients returned to sport or felt that they could return if they wanted to. Conclusions The arthroscopic Latarjet is an effective procedure for managing glenohumeral instability and can safely be performed in the lateral decubitus position. Level of Evidence Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Abstract
The Latarjet procedure is a favored approach for managing chronic and recurrent dislocation, especially in the presence of bone loss. Although generally yielding excellent results, the procedure carries a 15 to 30% complication rate. Although recurrent instability is a major concern, various complications such as infection, nerve injuries, and hardware impingement can also necessitate revision after a Latarjet procedure. Strategies for addressing this issue include glenoid bone grafting, using autogenous bone grafts from the iliac crest or distal clavicle, and allografts, with fresh lateral distal tibial allografts offering advantages because of their osteochondral nature. In addition, soft-tissue procedures offer another solution for recurrent instability, suitable for patients lacking substantial bone loss or those experiencing multidirectional instability. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the causes and management strategies for recurrent instability following a failed Latarjet procedure.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2023; 32:2599-2612. [PMID: 37541335 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.07.002] [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: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Latarjet has become an increasingly popular treatment option for recurrent anterior shoulder instability. With the reported complication rates for primary Latarjet surgery, there are concerns about the complications of Latarjet as a revision surgery. It remains unclear if poor results after previous surgical management can be improved with revision Latarjet as well as with primary Latarjet. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to compare the outcomes of primary Latarjet and revision Latarjet for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability. METHODS A systematic search was performed on 3 databases for studies that compared primary Latarjet with revision Latarjet used after failed arthroscopic stabilization or failed free bone block procedures. From the included studies, demographic data, clinical outcome scores, range of motion measurements, and postoperative complications were obtained. RESULTS A total of 11 studies were included for data analysis. Compared with the primary Latarjet cohort, revision Latarjet cohorts had a higher infection rate (1.2% vs. 2.6%; RR 0.46, P = .039). The primary Latarjet group showed a greater rate of return to sport (89.7% vs. 80.5%; RR 1.12, P = .41) and less subjective feeling of instability (12.6% vs. 20.9%; RR 0.60, P = .085) compared with the revision Latarjet group; however, this was not statistically significant. There were no significant differences in complication rates, reoperation, recurrence, and range of motion between primary Latarjet and revision Latarjet groups. Clinical outcome scores such as visual analog scale and Rowe scores were not significantly different between the cohorts. CONCLUSION Based on the current evidence, primary Latarjet presents reduced infection rates but similar clinical outcome measures, overall complication, and range of motion measurements than revision Latarjet performed after failed prior operative treatment.

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 primary purpose was to compare coracoid graft resorption after the Latarjet procedure in patients without preoperative glenoid bone loss vs. those with more than critical glenoid loss. The secondary purposes were to compare the functional outcomes and to investigate the association of graft position, angle of the screws, preoperative glenoid defect, age at surgery, and smoking status with graft resorption. METHODS Sixty consecutive patients with recurrent anterior instability were treated by the Latarjet procedure as the index procedure, irrespective of the glenoid bone loss between 2018 and 2021. Fifty-five patients were evaluated via computed tomography scans after a minimum of 1 year after surgery (range: 1-4 years). Twenty-five patients had no prior glenoid defect (No-defect group), 24 patients had preoperative glenoid defects ≥15% (Critical defect group), and 6 patients had glenoid defects between 5% and 15%. The No-defect group (n = 25) was compared with the Critical defect group (n = 24). Multivariate logistical regression was performed to evaluate the association of independent factors with the grade of resorption for all 55 patients in the cohort. RESULTS Major graft resorption at the level of the superior screw was observed in 72%-84% of patients in the No-defect group (n = 25) and in 75%-83% of patients in the Critical defect group (n = 24) (P = 1, P = 1; no significant difference). No to mild resorption at the level of the inferior screw was observed in 96% of patients in the No-defect group and 100% of patients in the Critical defect group (P = 1; no significant difference). Postoperative Rowe scores (100 [95-100] vs. 100 [95-100]; P = .8) and shoulder subjective value (87 [11] vs. 86 [9]; P = .9) were not significantly different between the 2 groups. None of the independent factors, including the corresponding screw angle, the mediolateral graft positioning, prior glenoid defect, age, and smoking status, were associated with graft resorption in multivariate logistical regression. CONCLUSIONS Graft resorption after the Latarjet procedure does not depend on the preoperative glenoid defect. The coracoid graft may be mostly resorbed around the superior screw but mildly or none at the level of the inferior screw, but this graft resorption is not dependent on the smoking status, age, prior glenoid defect, mediolateral graft positioning, and the angle of the screws.

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
Latarjet modifies the anatomy of the shoulder, and subsequent revision surgery is challenging. It is mandatory to determine the cause of recurrence in order to select the best treatment option. A CT scan is needed to measure glenoid track and evaluate coracoid graft status: position, degree of consolidation, and osteolysis. Conservative management can be advocated in selected patients in whom the instability level does not interfere with the activities they wish to perform. Surgical treatment is based on the glenoid track measurement and coracoid graft suitability. The coracoid graft is considered suitable if it preserves the conjoint tendon insertion, does not show osteolysis, and is large enough to reconstruct the glenoid surface. Adding a remplissage is recommended for those cases with a coracoid graft insufficient to convert large off-track Hill-Sachs lesions into on-track. If the coracoid graft is suitable to reconstruct bone defects in terms of size and viability but is poorly positioned or avulsed, graft repositioning can be a valid option. In patients with unsuitable coracoid bone graft, free bone graft is the revision technique of choice. The size of the graft should be large enough to restore the glenoid surface and to convert any off-track Hill-Sachs lesion into on-track. There is a small group of patients in whom bone defects were properly addressed but Latarjet failed due to hyperlaxity or poor soft tissue quality. Extraarticular capsular reinforcement is suggested in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The arthroscopic bone block procedure according to Latarjet remains a controversial subject, and few comparative studies have demonstrated the benefit of arthroscopy over open surgery. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The objective of this study was to compare both procedures by analyzing the short-term clinical results. The hypothesis was that the arthroscopic procedure is superior to the standard open procedure. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHOD This was a retrospective comparative study. Patients treated for chronic anterior instability by arthroscopic Latarjet with double cortical buttons (group A) or open Latarjet with screws (group O) with a minimum follow-up of 12 months were included. Intraoperative (duration, complications) and postoperative (complications, pain, mobility, functional scores, resumption of sport, Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale scar aesthetics, satisfaction) data were compared. RESULTS In total, 50 patients were included (n = 24 in group A, n = 26 in group O). Operating time was longer in group A (103 vs 61 min; P = .001). The average number of days on analgesics was higher in group A (8.9 vs 5.3 days; P = .04). The complication rate was similar for the 2 groups (12.5% vs 27%; P = .46). At 3 months, the loss of external rotation was greater in group A (-33° vs -18°; P = .01), and resumption of sports was less frequent (11% vs 48%; P = .01). At 12 months, the average scores were excellent, with no significants differences between the 2 groups: Walch-Duplay average, 90 points; Rowe, 94 points; Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), 92.5%; sport SSV, 85%; and Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale score, 17.2 points. CONCLUSION Over the short term, this comparative study did not prove the superiority of the cortical-button arthroscopic Latarjet procedure over the open Latarjet procedure. A delay in the resumption of sports, longer time to recover range of motion, and no benefit regarding postoperative pain or the aesthetic aspect of the scar were observed in this study with the arthroscopic procedure.

Arthroscopic Latarjet for Primary Shoulder Instability With Off-Track Lesions or Revision Surgery Yields Satisfactory Clinical Results and Reliable Return to Sport and Work at Minimum 3-Year Follow-Up. Arthroscopy 2022; 38:2809-2818.e1. [PMID: 35469994 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2022.04.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
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.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:1947-1956. [PMID: 35398164 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2022.02.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Latarjet procedure is a reliable treatment for the management of anterior glenohumeral instability with glenoid bone loss. However, the biomechanical properties of different fixation angles between screw and glenoid surface (α angle) have rarely been studied. The aim of the study was to investigate and compare the fixation stability, failure load, and failure mechanism between different α angles for Latarjet procedures, which were performed on cadaver specimens. METHODS Twenty-four shoulder specimens (8 in each of 3 groups) were dissected free of all soft tissue, and a 25% glenoid defect was created. The coracoid process was osteomized and fixed with 2 screws at 3 different α angles: 0° (group A), 15° (group B), and 30° (group C). Specimens were mounted to a testing apparatus, and cyclic loading (100 cycles at 1 Hz) was applied with a staircase protocol (50, 100, 150, and 200 N). Gross graft displacement and interface displacement were measured. The ultimate failure loads and failure mechanisms were recorded. RESULTS There was no significant difference in gross displacement under any cyclic load between 3 groups. However, a significant larger interface displacement was noted in group C than in group A in 150-N cyclic loading (P = .017). Under failure strength testing, all 24 specimens failed because of screw cutout from the glenoid, and the ultimate failure load was similar among the three groups. CONCLUSION Compared with the 0° α angle, the displacement after cyclic loading did not significantly increase when the α angle was increased to 15° but significantly increased at 30° for Latarjet procedures, which were performed on cadaver specimens. The results suggest that surgeons should apply the screws as parallel as possible to the glenoid surface when performing the Latarjet procedure. Although mild deviation may not reduce fixation stability, α angles greater than 30° should be avoided.

Abstract
Background Rapid consolidation of the bone block is paramount for the success of the Latarjet procedure. Noncannulated screws have shown satisfactory long-term bone block fusion, while cannulated screws are challenged with inferior mechanical properties and fusion rates. Purpose To report outcomes of the Latarjet procedure using cannulated screws, notably bone block fusion and complication rates at 3 months, as well as clinical scores and return to sports at minimum 2 years postoperatively. Study Design Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods We reviewed the records of 124 consecutive patients (124 shoulders) who underwent primary Latarjet procedures using cannulated screws between 2015 and 2018. All patients underwent clinical examination at 3 months postoperatively, including range of motion and radiographs to assess graft fusion. The Walch-Duplay score, Rowe score, Subjective Shoulder Value, and visual analog scale for pain were collected at a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Results Overall, 9 patients (7%) required reoperation: 7 (6%) had screw removal for unexplained residual pain, 1 (0.8%) had lavage for deep infection, and 1 (0.8%) had evacuation to treat a hematoma. Furthermore, 3 patients (2.4%) had recurrent instability, none of whom underwent reoperation. At 3-month follow-up, all 124 shoulders showed complete radiographic graft fusion, and at 40 ± 11 months (mean ± SD; range, 24-64 months), 88% of patients had returned to sport (109/124), the Walch-Duplay score was 86 ± 14, Rowe was 84 ± 15, Subjective Shoulder Value was 88 ± 11, and visual analog scale for pain was 1 ± 1. Conclusion The clinical relevance of these findings is that 4.5-mm cannulated screws are safe and effective for primary Latarjet procedures and grant adequate graft healing, with low recurrence of instability and a high rate of return to sports.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, arthroscopic double-button Latarjet (AL) has provided an alternative to conventional open Latarjet (OL) in the treatment of anterior shoulder instability with glenoid bone loss. Therefore, theoretically, the faster fusion is obtained, the sooner return to sports under safe conditions can occur. The emerging flexible fixation of the bone block has clearly offered a new approach to achieve bone fusion. However, the period required to achieve this goal remains controversial. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose was to compare computed tomography (CT) scan results of AL and OL in the early postoperative period. It was hypothesized that the bone block fusion with AL would require a longer time than that with OL. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS In a retrospective 1-year study, the authors compared 17 primary double-button AL to 22 primary 2-screw OL procedures indicated for anterior shoulder instability in patients with an Index Severity Instability Score >3 points. These patients were reviewed with a CT scan at 1 day, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. The characteristics for the 2 groups were comparable. CT scans aimed to analyze graft position, bone contact area with the scapula, and fusion at 3 and 6 months. Clinical assessment was based on the Walch-Duplay and Rowe scores. RESULTS The mean preoperative Index Severity Instability Score was 5.3 ± 1.9 points, with a mean anterior glenoid bone loss of 9.1% ± 4.6%. At 3 months, the rates of fusion were 41% and 100% for the AL and OL groups, respectively (P < .001). This rate increased to 70% in the AL group at 6 months (P = .006). In the axial and sagittal planes, there was no difference in graft position between the AL group and the OL group. The bone block was longer and there was a more extensive bone contact area in the OL group (AL, 131 mm2 vs OL, 223 mm2; P < .001). At 6 months of follow-up, no significant difference in clinical scores was noted between the groups: Walch-Duplay score, 93.0 ± 10.9 points versus 91.8 ± 12.5 points (P = .867); and Rowe score, 99.0 ± 2.2 points versus 95.0 ± 8.4 points (P = .307) for the AL and OL groups, respectively. CONCLUSION AL required more time to achieve bone block fusion than OL. This finding should be taken into account when considering this procedure for patients in a hurry to return to sports involving the shoulder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mid-term effect of lateral placement of bone graft on shoulder joint degeneration after modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with an anterior glenoid bone defect. METHODS According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 18 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and anterior glenoid bone defect who received the modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation between January 2015 and November 2016 were enrolled in this study. There were 12 males and 6 females with an average age of 26.2 years (range, 19-37 years). The number of shoulder dislocation ranged from 4 to 30 times (mean, 8.8 times). The disease duration was 8-49 months (mean, 23.8 months). The mean anterior glenoid bone defect was 25.2% of the glenoid surface (range, 20%-29%). The mean preoperative Instability Severity Index Score (ISIS) was 7.6 (range, 7-10). According to Samilson-Prieto classification, the shoulder joint degeneration was rated as grade 0 in 13 cases, grade Ⅰ in 3 cases, and grade Ⅱ in 2 cases. Before and after operation, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (ASES) score, Walch-Duplay score, Rowe score, and shoulder mobility were used to evaluate the effectiveness. Imaging examination was performed to observe the shoulder joint degeneration, the position of the bone graft, and the postoperative shaping of the scapular glenoid. RESULTS All patients were followed up 55-62 months, with an average of 59.6 months. There was no neurovascular injuries, infections, fixation-related and bone graft-related complications. No re-dislocation and revision occurred. All patients returned to normal life, 17 of whom returned to sport. The VAS score was significantly decreased and ASES, Walch-Duplay, and Rowe scores were significantly improved at last follow-up ( P<0.05). No significant difference was found in range of motion of forward flexion, abduction, lateral rotation at 90° abduction, internal rotation at 90° abduction, or lateral rotation at 0° between pre- and post-operation ( P>0.05). Three-dimensional CT showed that the centers of all bone grafts were between 3∶30 and 4∶30 (right shoulder) or between 7∶40 and 8∶20 (left shoulder) and no bone grafts were positioned superiorly or inferiorly in the glenoid En-face view. All bone grafts were positioned lateral to the scapular glenoid with an average distance of 3.5 mm (range, 2.3-4.6 mm) in cross-sectional imaging by CT. Compared with the preoperative Samilson-Prieto classification results, all cases showed no progression of shoulder joint degeneration at 36, 48 months and last follow-up. All bone grafts remodeled to a steady state within 24 months after operation. The bone graft and glenoid finally remodeled analogous to the shape of the intact glenoid in the En-face view and became flush with the glenoid rim, remodeling to a curved shape congruent to the humeral head in cross-sectional imaging by CT. The shape of the remodeled glenoid at last follow-up was not significantly different from that at 24 months after operation. CONCLUSION The lateral placement of the bone graft during modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation do not accelerate the imaging changes of shoulder joint degeneration.

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
Objective To review the causes of Latarjet surgery failure and various revision surgeries, in order to provide the reference for the revision of treatment options for Latarjet surgery failure. Methods Literature on the causes of Latarjet surgery failure and revision surgeries was extensively reviewed and analyzed. Results Latarjet surgery is widely used in clinical practice for recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder with glenoid defects, especially for the defects of more than 25%. The main reasons for its failure are ununion, bone resorption, graft dislocation, trauma, and graft fracture, etc. The revision surgeries are diverse, the standard treatment has not yet been formed. The revision surgeries include open iliac bone grafting, microscopic Eden-Hybinette surgery, soft tissue reconstruction, open or arthroscopic bone grafting, etc. The differences among the revisions are mainly reflected in grafts, complications, and their costs. Conclusion Latarjet surgery is difficult to operate and requires high technical requirements for the surgeons. It is necessary to continuously improve the surgical technology to reduce the complications related to Latarjet surgery and its revision surgery.

Abstract
The rate of recurrence of anterior unidirectional instability is lower after coracoid bone-block than with other techniques, even if failures still occur with this difficult procedure. Failure may consist in recurrent instability (dislocation, subluxation, unstable painful shoulder) or despite absence of obvious clinical signs, in radiologic failure (non-union, fracture), biologic failure (osteolysis) or infection, all of which may require revision surgery or lead to late instability or subclinical chronic apprehension. Clinical, X-ray and CT assessment identifies the type of failure and may lead to a second surgery being discussed with the patient according to functional demand. Technical error is often implicated and is generally due to deficient coracoid preparation, insufficient conjoint and coracoid tendon release or problems of positioning and fixing the bone-block on the glenoid. There are 2 types of revision surgery. Iliac bone-block involves the same demands as coracoid bone-block; it stabilises the shoulder and provides very good functional results. Although less effective, anterior capsule repair can also stabilise the shoulder when associated to posterior Hill-Sachs lesion remplissage by infraspinatus tenodesis. Osteoarthritis of the shoulder may set in after any surgical revision and impair the result.

Arthroscopic double-button Latarjet: two-thirds of bone block healed at 90 days. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2021; 29:136-142. [PMID: 31894367 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-019-05830-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2019] [Accepted: 12/12/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the union rate and risk factors for delayed union in the early postoperative period after an arthroscopic Latarjet with double-button fixation. METHOD In a retrospective study, postoperative CT scans at 3 months were analysed following an arthroscopic Latarjet with double-button fixation used to treat anterior shoulder instability. Healing of the bone block, its position in the sagittal and coronal planes, and the contact area graft/scapula were analysed. RESULTS Ninety-eight CT scans (98 patients) were included. The rate of healing at 3 months was 63/98 (64%) and four grafts clearly migrated. The position was perfectly flush to the glenoid rim in 67% and under the equator in 96%. The mean contact graft/scapula area was 135 mm 2 (4-420). In multivariate analysis, the risk of non-union at 3 months was associated with tobacco consumption (p = 0.001, aOR = 12.17 95% CI [2.62-56.49]), absence of preoperative glenoid bone defect (p = 0.003, aOR = 8.06 95% CI [2.06-31.56]), and a contact area graft/scapula less than 120 mm 2 (p = 0.010, aOR = 5.25 95% CI [1.50-18.40]). Among 31 non-united grafts, 93% definitively healed on CT scan at 1 year, leaving an overall rate of 93% of united grafts at last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The rate of union at 3 months after an arthroscopic Latarjet with double-button fixation was 64%, reaching 93% at 1 year. This procedure should be carefully indicated in case of tobacco use or instability without glenoid bone defect, especially when the shoulder is exposed to high-energy trauma in the early phase after surgery.

Abstract
Objective
Coracoid osteolysis has been described as a possible complication after the Latarjet procedure. The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence and risk factors associated to coracoid graft osteolysis and to correlate them with clinical results.
Methods
A retrospective review of 38 Latarjet procedures was conducted. Computed tomography (CT) scans were obtained from all of the patients before and at least 1 year after the surgery. Coracoid osteolysis was evaluated and correlated to preoperative factors, namely: age, smoking status, and preoperative glenoid bone loss. The patients were divided into 2 groups: A (no or minor bone resorption) and B (major or total bone resorption). The functional outcome was determined by the Rowe score.
Results
Coracoid graft osteolysis occurred in 22 cases (57.8%). The mean preoperative glenoid defect was 22.8% in group A, and 13.4% in group B (
p
= 0.0075). The mean ages of the subjects in both groups were not significantly different. Smoking did not seem to affect the main outcome either, and no correlation was found between graft osteolysis and postoperative range of motion, pain, or Rowe score. There were no cases of recurrent dislocations in our sample, although four patients presented with a positive anterior apprehension sign.
Conclusion
Bone resorption of the coracoid graft is present in at least 50% of the patients submitted to the Latarjet procedure, and the absence of significant preoperative glenoid bone loss showed to be the only risk factor associated with severe graft osteolysis, even though this did not influence significantly the clinical outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the description of the arthroscopic Latarjet technique, discussion about the superiority of the open or arthroscopic procedure has arisen. The appropriate placement of the coracoid graft (CG) on the anterior glenoid neck is reported to be the most important step of the Latarjet procedure. PURPOSE To verify if there are differences in the parameters that may affect the final position and fixation of CG obtained from the open and arthroscopic Latarjet techniques. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Twenty fresh-frozen human paired cadaveric shoulder specimens were randomly distributed in 2 surgery groups (open group [OG] and arthroscopic group [AG]) with 10 specimens in each. Two surgeons, each with experience performing open and arthroscopic Latarjet techniques, executed these procedures: one surgeon performed all open techniques, and the other performed all arthroscopic techniques, respectively. After surgery, a computerized tomography scan was performed. The surgical time, the position of each CG, a series of variables that might affect the CG fixation, and the level of the subscapularis muscle split were evaluated. RESULTS The mean surgical time was significantly longer in the AG (mean, 26 minutes for OG and 57 minutes for AG). Three intraoperative complications (30%) were identified in the AG, consisting of graft fractures. The CG was determined to be in an optimal cranial-caudal position in 90% of specimens of the OG and 44% of the AG (Fisher, P = .057). In both groups, the CG was placed in an optimal medial-lateral position in all specimens. In the OG, the degree of parallelism between the major axes of the glenoid surface and CG was significantly greater than in the AG (mean, 3.8º for OG and 15.1º for AG). No significant differences were observed in superior and inferior screw orientation between the groups. In the longitudinal and transverse directions, significant differences were found in the centering of the superior screw, being closer to the ideal point in the OG than in the AG. The location where the longitudinal subscapularis muscle split was performed was significantly higher in the AG. CONCLUSION The open Latarjet technique required less surgical time; presented a lower number of intraoperative complications; and allowed more adequate placement of the CG, better centering of the screws, and a subscapularis muscle split closer to the ideal position. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The reported benefits of the arthroscopic Latarjet technique seem less clear if we take into account the added surgery time and complications.

Screw Removal Can Resolve Unexplained Anterior Pain Without Recurrence of Shoulder Instability After Open Latarjet Procedures. Am J Sports Med 2020; 48:1450-1455.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anterior shoulder instability can be successfully treated using Latarjet procedures, although a small proportion of patients report unexplained pain. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose was to report the prevalence and characteristics of patients with unexplained pain without recurrent instability after open Latarjet procedures and to determine whether screw removal can alleviate pain. The hypothesis was that unexplained pain without recurrent instability might be due to soft tissue impingements against the screw heads and that the removal of screws would alleviate or reduce pain. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and radiographic records of 461 consecutive shoulders treated by open Latarjet procedures for anterior instability between 2002 and 2014. Unexplained anterior pain was present in 21 shoulders (4.6%) and treated by screw removal at 29 ± 37 months (mean ± SD). Postoperative assessment at >12 months after screw removal included complications, visual analog scale for pain (pVAS), subjective shoulder value, Rowe score, Walch-Duplay score, and ranges of motion. The study cohort comprised the shoulders of 20 patients (9 women, 11 men) aged 25 ± 6 years (median, 25 years; range, 16-34 years) at screw removal and involved the dominant arm in 13 (62%) shoulders. RESULTS Screw removal alleviated pain completely in 14 shoulders (67%; pVAS improvement, 6.4 ± 1.8; median, 6; range, 3-8) and reduced pain in the remaining 7 (33%; pVAS improvement, 2.4 ± 1.4; median, 2; range, 1-5). At 38 ± 23 months after screw removal, 2 recurrences of instability unrelated to screw removal occurred. The subjective shoulder value was 79% ± 22% (median, 90%; range, 0%-95%); Rowe score, 85 ± 20 (median, 95; range, 30-100); and Walch-Duplay score, 82 ± 19 (median, 85; range, 25-100). Mobility improved in active forward elevation (171°± 14°), external rotation with the elbow at the side (61°± 12°), and external rotation with the arm at 90° of abduction (67°± 13°) and especially in internal rotation, with only 2 shoulders (10%) limited to T12 spine segment. CONCLUSION The present findings confirm that unexplained anterior pain after Latarjet procedures can be related to the screws used to fix bone blocks, which can safely be alleviated or reduced by screw removal.

Abstract
Background: The literature lacks evidence comparing outcomes between the Latarjet procedure performed as a primary procedure versus a revision procedure in competitive athletes. Purpose: To compare return to sport, functional outcomes, and complications of the modified Latarjet performed as a primary or revision procedure in competitive athletes. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Between June 2008 and June 2015, a total of 100 competitive athletes with recurrent anterior shoulder instability underwent surgery with the congruent arc Latarjet procedure without capsulolabral repair. There were 46 patients with primary repairs and 54 with revisions. Return to sport, range of motion (ROM), the Rowe score, a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain in sport activity, and the Athletic Shoulder Outcome Scoring System (ASOSS) were used to assess functional outcomes. Recurrences were also evaluated. The postoperative bone block position and consolidation were assessed by computed tomography. Results: The mean follow-up period was 58 months (range, 24-108 months). A total of 96 patients (96%) returned to competitive sports; 91% returned to their preinjury level of play. No significant difference in shoulder ROM was found between preoperative and postoperative results. The Rowe, VAS, and ASOSS scores showed statistically significant improvements after surgery (P < .001). The Rowe score increased from a preoperative mean of 43.8 to a postoperative mean of 96.1 (P < .01). Subjective pain during sports improved from a preoperative VAS score of 3.3 to a postoperative score of 1.2 (P < .01). The ASOSS score improved significantly from a preoperative mean of 46.3 to a postoperative mean of 88.1 (P < .001). No significant differences in shoulder ROM and functional scores were found between patients who underwent a primary versus a revision procedure. No recurrence of shoulder dislocation or subluxation was noted. The bone block healed in 91 patients (91%). Conclusion: In competitive athletes with recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability, the modified Latarjet procedure produced excellent functional outcomes, with most athletes returning to sport at the same level they had before surgery and without recurrence, regardless of whether the surgery was performed as a primary or a revision procedure.
