Suture Button Fixation in Latarjet Has Similar Load to Failure and Clinical Outcomes but Lower Bone Resorption Compared With Screw Fixation: A Systematic Review. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1637-1654. [PMID: 37890545 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.10.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the 2 Latarjet fixation techniques-screw fixation (SF) versus suture button (SB) -for clinical, biomechanical, and radiologic outcomes. METHODS A systematic review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic and Meta-Analyses guidelines using MEDLINE and Embase databases and was prospectively registered on PROSPERO. Only comparative clinical and biomechanical studies of Latarjet with SF and SB were included. Studies were appraised using the Methodical Index for Non-Randomised Studies (MINORS) tool. RESULTS Eleven studies met eligible criteria: 7 clinical studies (SB, n = 279; SF, n = 845) and 4 biomechanical. In total, 80.9% (SB) and 84.2% (SF) of patients were male. Follow-up ranged from 6 to 63.6 months. The overall recurrent instability rate for SB ranged from 0 to 8.3% and for SF ranged from 0 to 2.75%. Only one study demonstrated a greater recurrent instability rate with SB (P = .02). Overall SB complication rates ranged from 0 to 12.5% and SF ranged from 0 to 27%. Two studies reported greater complications and reoperations with SF related to hardware. Summary forest plots from 4 studies showed no significant difference in Walch Duplay score (mean difference, range -5.00 to 1.20 [95% confidence interval {CI} -12.13 to 8.56], I2 inconsistency = 0%), Rowe score (mean difference, range -2.00 to 4.00 [95% CI -7.37 to 7.66], I2 inconsistency = 45%), and VAS for pain (mean difference, range -0.10 to 0.60 [95% CI -0.72 to 1.33], I2 inconsistency = 0%). There was no statistically significant difference between SB and SF in the postoperative range of motion. Radiologically, there was no significant difference in graft positioning and union at final follow-up, but graft resorption was greater in SF (range 25.2%-47.6%) compared with SB (range 10.1%-18.5%). Biomechanical studies showed no significant difference in maximum load to failure (SB, range 184-266 N vs SF, range 148-288 N). CONCLUSIONS Clinically, SB fixation demonstrated similar functional outcome and range of motion when compared with SF, with the potential benefit of lower rates of graft resorption and hardware-related complications. Biomechanically there was no difference in maximum load to failure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, systematic review of Level III and biomechanical studies.

Şahin K, Sarıkaş M, Çeşme DH, Topal M, Kapıcıoğlu M, Bilsel K. Does previous arthroscopic Bankart repair influence coracoid graft osteolysis in Latarjet procedure? A case-control study with computed tomography scan data. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:e223-e230. [PMID: 37757904 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.08.011] [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: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Latarjet procedure is commonly performed in the treatment of recurrent shoulder instability and is also indicated as a salvage procedure for recurrence after failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Although this procedure has shown success, there has been an increased awareness of complications in recent studies, especially graft osteolysis. Most relevant research has focused on the pathophysiology, incidence, or location of graft osteolysis or the risk factors for graft osteolysis; however, the data are limited to primary Latarjet procedures. This study aimed to investigate the effect of previous arthroscopic Bankart repair surgery on coracoid bone graft osteolysis in the Latarjet procedure. METHODS This retrospective case-control study analyzed data from patients who underwent primary Latarjet procedures or revision Latarjet procedures following failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Clinical outcome measures included range of motion, the Subjective Shoulder Value, and the Rowe score. Volumetric analysis of each transferred coracoid graft was performed using early postoperative and late postoperative computed tomography scan data, and the amount of graft osteolysis was then calculated as the percentage of volume reduction of each graft. RESULTS A total of 32 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study, with 24 patients in the primary Latarjet group (group I) and 8 patients in the revision Latarjet group (group II). The mean age of the patients was 32.5 ± 7.7 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 52.1 ± 8.9 months. Both study groups showed significant improvement in the Subjective Shoulder Value compared with baseline (P < .05). Comparison of postoperative clinical outcome measures showed no significant difference in any outcome parameter between the 2 study groups (P > .05). No recurrence was observed during the follow-up period. A positive apprehension sign was present in 6 patients (25%) in group I and 4 patients (50%) in group II (P > .05). Analysis of radiologic data revealed that all patients underwent some degree of graft osteolysis, with varying osteolysis ratios between 12% and 98%. The mean osteolysis ratio of the coracoid graft was 67.3% ± 22.6% in group I and 69.4% ± 25.6% in group II, with no significant difference between the 2 groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION The findings of this study suggest that a considerable amount of coracoid graft osteolysis is observed after both primary Latarjet procedures and revision Latarjet procedures following failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Previous arthroscopic Bankart repair did not seem to have a significant influence on the amount of graft osteolysis, and both primary and revision Latarjet procedures showed satisfactory clinical outcomes.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:610-617. [PMID: 37788755 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.08.030] [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: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 08/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Latarjet procedure is widely used to address anterior shoulder instability, especially in case of glenoid bone loss. Recently, cortical suture button fixation for coracoid transfer has been used to mitigate complications seen with screw placement. The aim of this biomechanical study was to evaluate the stability of a novel and cost-effective cow-hitch suture button technique, designed to be performed through a standard open deltopectoral approach, and compare this to a well-established double suture button technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS We randomly assigned 12 fresh frozen cadaveric shoulders to undergo the Latarjet procedure with either 4 suture button (S&N EndoButton) fixations (SB group; n = 6, age 72 ± 9.8 years) or cow-hitch suture button technique using a 1.7-mm FiberTape looped sequentially in 2 suture buttons (Arthrex Pectoralis Button) placed from anterior on the posterior glenoid (CH-SB group; n = 6, age 73 ± 9.3 years). After fixation, all shoulders underwent biomechanical testing with direct loading on the graft via a material testing system. Cyclic loading was performed for 100 cycles (10-100 N) to determine axial displacement with time; each graft was then monotonically loaded to failure. RESULTS The maximum cyclic displacement was 4.3 ± 1.6 mm for the cow-hitch suture button technique and 5.0 ± 1.7 mm for the standard double suture button technique (P = .46). Ultimate load to failure and stiffness were, respectively, 190 ± 82 N and 221 ± 124 N/mm for the CH-SB technique and 172 ± 48 N and 173 ± 34 N/mm for the standard double SB technique (P = .66 and .43). The most common failure mode was suture cut-through at the anteroinferior aspect of the glenoid for both fixation groups. CONCLUSIONS The cow-hitch suture button technique resulted in a similar elongation, stiffness, and failure load compared to an established double suture button technique. Therefore, this cost-effective fixation may be an alternative, eligible for open approaches, to the established double suture button techniques.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the efficacy of all-arthroscopic glenoid bone augmentation surgery using the iliac crest autograft procedure. Furthermore, we sought to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of using screw versus button fixation, in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. METHODS Between 2015 and 2019, 134 shoulders with persistent instability were surgically treated with an arthroscopically placed autologous iliac crest bone graft transfer procedure. Preoperative and postoperative clinical follow-up data were evaluated using the range of motion, and the Walch-Duplay, American Shoulder and Elbow Society, and Rowe scores. Radiologic assessment on 3-dimensional computed tomography scans was performed preoperatively, immediately after surgery, as well as postoperatively, at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and at the final follow-up stage. Graft positions, healing, and resorption were evaluated from postoperative images. RESULTS This study included 102 patients who underwent arthroscopic iliac crest bone grafting procedure with 2 screws fixation (n = 37; group 1) and 2 button fixation (n = 65; group 2). The mean follow-up period was 37 months. There were no significant differences between groups in terms of clinical scores, shoulder motion range, graft healing, or graft positions on computed tomography scans (P>.05). In group 1, 1 patient showed mechanical irritation and persistent pain around the screw insertion site, being treated through the arthroscopic removal of the screws. The average postoperative bony resorption percentages were 20.3% and 11.2% at 6 months, and 32.4% and 19.3% at 12 months, in group 1 and group 2, respectively. A statistically significant difference was detected between the two groups (P<.05). CONCLUSIONS In the arthroscopic iliac crest bone grafting procedure for the treatment of chronic osseous anterior shoulder instability, excellent functional results were obtained after both button fixation and screw fixation techniques. In addition, less graft resorption and no hardware-related complications were detected with suture button fixation technique. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative therapeutic trial.

Abstract
The optimal surgical management of anterior shoulder instability remains controversial. Although it has low recurrence rates and good clinical results, the Latarjet procedure has some disadvantages and is considered "overtreatment" in inactive patients with moderate glenoid bone loss. Several studies have described an arthroscopic technique called arthroscopic subscapularis augmentation. We developed a technical variation of the arthroscopic subscapularis augmentation technique involving tenodesis of the upper third of the subscapularis tendon using a graft. This technique uses a transglenoid fixation-immobilization with 2 knotless TightRope devices instead of anchors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glenohumeral joint contact loading before and after glenoid bone grafting for recurrent anterior instability remains poorly understood. PURPOSE To develop a computational model to evaluate the influence of glenoid bone loss and graft positioning on graft and cartilage contact pressures after the Latarjet procedure. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS A finite element model of the shoulder was developed using kinematics, muscle and glenohumeral joint loading of 6 male participants. Muscle and joint forces at 90° of abduction and external rotation were calculated and employed in simulations of the native shoulder, as well as the shoulder with a Bankart lesion, 10% and 25% glenoid bone loss, and after the Latarjet procedure. RESULTS A Bankart lesion as well as glenoid bone loss of 10% and 25% significantly increased glenoid and humeral cartilage contact pressures compared with the native shoulder (P < .05). The Latarjet procedure did not significantly increase glenoid cartilage contact pressure. With 25% glenoid bone loss, the Latarjet procedure with a graft flush with the glenoid and the humerus positioned at the glenoid half-width resulted in significantly increased humeral cartilage contact pressure compared with that preoperatively (P = .023). Under the same condition, medializing the graft by 1 mm resulted in humeral cartilage contact pressure comparable with that preoperatively (P = .097). Graft lateralization by 1 mm resulted in significantly increased humeral cartilage contact pressure in both glenoid bone loss conditions (P < .05). CONCLUSION This modeling study showed that labral damage and greater glenoid bone loss significantly increased glenoid and humeral cartilage contact pressures in the shoulder. The Latarjet procedure may mitigate this to an extent, although glenoid and humeral contact loading was sensitive to graft placement. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The Latarjet procedure with a correctly positioned graft should not lead to increased glenohumeral joint contact loading. The present study suggests that lateral graft overhang should be avoided, and in the situation of large glenoid bone defects, slight medialization (ie, 1 mm) of the graft may help to mitigate glenohumeral joint contact overloading.

Abstract
Despite multiple modifications, the Latarjet is still the most popular procedure for recurrent anterior shoulder instability with glenoid bone loss. Partial or subtotal resorption of the graft is common, potentially leading to hardware prominence and risk of anterior soft-tissue impingement. To minimize the technical difficulties and morbidity associated with metallic implants, a coracoid and conjoint tendon transfer with a mini-open approach using Cerclage tape suture is described, as an alternative for the Latarjet procedure typically performed with metal screws and plates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the short-term effectiveness of modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. METHODS Between January 2019 and November 2020, 36 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation were treated by modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons. There were 26 males and 10 females, with an average age of 27.8 years (range, 18-36 years). The number of shoulder dislocations ranged from 3 to 12 times, with an average of 6.5 times. The disease duration ranged from 5 to 36 months, with an average of 16.2 months. Preoperative shoulder fear test was positive, and the Beighton score of joint relaxation was 0-4, with an average of 1.3. Imaging examination showed that the defect width of the ipsilateral glenoid bone was 16%-28%, with an average of 21.5%. Postoperative complications, recurrent dislocation, subluxation, and instability of shoulder joint were recorded. Shoulder range of motion was examined, including forward flexion, external rotation at side, external rotation at 90° abduction, and internal rotation. Shoulder joint function was evaluated by Walch-Duplay score, American Association for Shoulder and Elbow Surgery Score (ASES), and ROWE score. X-ray film and CT images were taken to observe the shaping of coracoid process graft. RESULTS All incisions healed by first intention, and no vascular or nerve injury occurred. All patients were followed up 12-28 months, with an average of 19.9 months. During follow-up, no shoulder dislocation recurred, and shoulder fear test was negative. At last follow-up, there was no significant difference in shoulder forward flexion, external rotation at side, external rotation at 90° abduction, and internal rotation when compared with preoperative values (P>0.05). The Walch-Duplay score, ASES score, and ROWE score of shoulder function significantly improved (P<0.05). Postoperative imaging examination showed that coracoid process graft was at the same level with the glenoid in 33 cases (91.7%), medial in 1 case (2.8%), and lateral in 2 cases (5.6%); the center of coracoid process graft was mainly located between 3 to 5 o'clock in 33 cases (91.7%), higher than 3 o'clock in 1 case (2.8%), and lower than 5 o'clock in 2 cases (5.6%). There was no obvious glenohumeral joint degeneration during follow-up, and the coracoid process graft gradually formed concentric circles with the humeral head. CONCLUSION The modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure with double EndoButtons can effectively treat recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, and the short-term effectiveness is satisfactory, and the position of coracoid process graft is accurate.

Abstract
Background: Some studies have advocated the use of suture button fixation during Bristow-Latarjet surgery to reduce complications associated with screw fixation. However, data comparing these fixation methods are relatively incomplete. Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of modified arthroscopic Bristow-Latarjet surgery and compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes using screw versus suture button fixation. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We evaluated 136 patients with traumatic anterior shoulder instability who underwent the modified arthroscopic Bristow-Latarjet surgery between June 2015 and February 2018. Of these patients, 117 who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled at a mean follow-up of 3.3 ± 0.7 years. Shoulders were separated into 2 groups based on fixation technique: screw fixation (group A; n = 63) or suture button fixation (group B; n = 54). Computed tomography imaging findings and clinical results were assessed preoperatively; immediately after operation; and postoperatively at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and final follow-up. Results: There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of postoperative clinical scores, the level of return to sports, range of motion, graft position, or reoperation rates. Bone healing was observed in 97.4% of the cases overall (114/117), with 98.4% bone union in group A and 96.3% in group B at final follow-up. Bone absorption was more common in group A (n = 30; 47.6%) compared with group B (n = 10; 18.5%) (P = .003). There were no hardware-related complications in group B, compared with 7.9% of patients in group A (P = .034). One patient in group B had a recurrent dislocation due to an unexpected event, and there were no recurrent dislocations in group A. Conclusion: After the modified arthroscopic Bristow-Latarjet procedure, both suture button and screw fixation methods demonstrated high bony healing rates and low risk of recurrence. Less coracoid graft resorption and no hardware-related complications were seen with suture button fixation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While 2 screws are traditionally used for coracoid bone block fixation, no gold standard technique has yet been established when using cortical buttons. PURPOSE To compare anatomic and clinical outcomes of the arthroscopic Latarjet procedure using either 2 or 4 buttons for coracoid bone block fixation. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS A total of 23 patients with 4-button fixation (group 4B) were matched for age at surgery, sex, and follow-up to 46 patients who had 2-button fixation (group 2B). All patients underwent guided arthroscopic Latarjet (using coracoid and glenoid guides), and a tensioning device was used to rigidify the suture button construct and get intraoperative bone block compression. The primary outcome was assessment of bone block positioning and healing using computed tomography scans performed at 2 weeks and at least 6 months after surgery. The mean ± standard deviation follow-up was 49 ± 7 months (range, 24-64 months). RESULTS The bone block healing rate was similar in both groups: 91% in group 4B versus 95.5% in group 2B. The transferred coracoid was flush to the glenoid surface in 21 patients (91%) in group 4B and 44 patients (96%) in group 2B (P = .6); it was under the equator in 22 patients (96%) in group 4B and 44 patients (96%) in group 2B (P≥ .99). There was no secondary bone block displacement; the rate of bone block resorption was similar between the groups: 28% in group 4B and 23% in group 2B (P = .71). Patient-reported outcomes, return to sports, and satisfaction were also similar between the groups. The operating time was significantly longer in group 4B (95 vs 75 minutes; P = .009). CONCLUSION A 4-button fixation technique did not demonstrate any anatomic or clinical advantages when compared with a 2-button fixation technique, while making the procedure more complex and lengthening the operating time by 20 minutes. A 2-button fixation is simple, safe, and sufficient to solidly fix the transferred coracoid bone block. The use of drill guides allows accurate graft placement, while the use of a tensioning device to rigidify the suture button construct provides high rates of bone block healing with both techniques (>90%).

Abstract
Glenoid grafting is the standard surgical treatment for recurrent shoulder instability with significant glenoid bone loss. Arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction using a distal tibial allograft for anatomic glenoid reconstruction has recently been gaining attention. This article describes the use of a hybrid graft fixation technique with 1 suture-EndoButton device and 1 compression screw in arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction using distal tibial allograft.

Orthop Surg 2020; 12:1350-1361. [PMID: 33200576 PMCID: PMC7670134 DOI: 10.1111/os.12781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2020] [Revised: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 07/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the early clinical and radiographic results of arthroscopic Latarjet procedure using screw or suture‐button fixation in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Methods Twelve patients who underwent arthroscopic Latarjet procedure between January 2015 and December 2018 at our institution were retrospectively studied. Data of the patients' history, including age, gender, side of affected arm, body mass index (BMI), and the number of dislocations since fist dislocation were collected. Preoperative and postoperative clinical follow‐up data were evaluated using Walch–Duplay score, American Shoulder and Elbow Society (ASES) score, and modified Rowe score. Active external rotation and active internal rotation at 90° of abduction as well as active elevation were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively. The position and healing condition of the transferred coracoid bony graft were also assessed using computed tomography (CT) and Mimics 19.0 software. Results Mean follow‐up was 24.9 months (range, 13 to 53 months) of all patients. At final follow‐up, the average ASES score (preoperative vs postoperative values) had improved from 68.9 ± 7.9 to 91.1 ± 6.1 in screw fixation group and 68.9 ± 8.9 to 87.5 ± 6.7 in suture‐button fixation group; the average Rowe score (preoperative vs postoperative values) had improved from 25.0 ± 8.4 to 92.5 ± 4.2 in screw fixation group and 21.7 ± 13.7 to 93.3 ± 4.1 in suture‐button fixation group; the average of Walch–Duplay score (preoperative vs postoperative values) had improved from 12.5 ± 15.1 to 91.7 ± 4.1 in screw fixation group and 18.3 ± 20.7 to 88.3 ± 7.5 in button fixation group. The forward flexion was 175.0° ± 8.4° preoperatively and 178.3° ± 4.1° postoperatively in screw fixation group while 174.8° ± 10.2° preoperatively and 175.0° ± 5.5° postoperatively in suture‐button fixation group. The active external rotation was 77.5° ± 5.2° preoperatively and 71.7° ± 4.1° postoperatively in screw fixation group while 72.5° ± 6.9° preoperatively and 68.3° ± 7.5° postoperatively in suture‐button fixation group. The average of active internal rotation was 66.7° ± 6.1° preoperatively and 67.5° ± 6.1° postoperatively in screw fixation group while 68.3° ± 11.3° preoperatively and 66.7° ± 7.5° postoperatively in suture‐button fixation group. In postoperative CT scan, 91.7% grafts midline center were located at or under the equator in the en face view; 75% of the bone blocks were flush to the glenoid face in the axial view, with only two grafts exhibiting slight medial placement in screw fixation group (33.3%) and one graft exhibiting slight lateral placement in suture‐button fixation group (16.7%). All grafts achieved bone union. Graft absorption mostly occurred outside of the “best‐fit” circle. The average bony absorption rates of the coracoid grafts were 25.2% and 10.18% in screw fixation group and suture‐button fixation group, respectively, at 6 months postoperative follow‐up. Conclusion Both suture‐button fixation and screw fixation techniques in arthroscopic Latarjet procedure revealed excellent clinical outcomes with low complication rates in the early follow‐up. The suture‐button fixation exhibited a flexible fixation pattern that allowed for self‐correction to some extent, even slight lateralization could finally remodel over time.

Orthop Surg 2020; 12:1388-1393. [PMID: 33200578 PMCID: PMC7670148 DOI: 10.1111/os.12778] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2020] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To analyze if general factors such as age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI (body mass index), smoking, and drinking play a role in graft resorption after arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone grafting. Methods From July 2016 to August 2018, patients who were diagnosed with anterior shoulder instability with subcritical bone loss (10%–15%) and underwent arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft transplant were retrospectively reviewed and enrolled in this study. The age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, and drinking conditions of the enrolled patients were recorded. The graft resorption rate at postoperative 1 year was also measured on three‐dimensional computed tomography (3D‐CT) scans. The Pearson test and the Spearman test were used to identify any significant correlation between the general factors and graft resorption rate. Results A total of 27 patients who underwent arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft for recurrent shoulder instability qualified and were included in this study. There were 20 males and seven females, the mean age was 30.8 ± 9.4 years, the mean follow‐up time was 29.3 months (range, 25–39 months), during which no severe complications such as infection, neurovascular injury, or re‐dislocation were observed. The bone graft healed in all cases, the mean healing time was 2.6 ± 0.5 months (range, 2–3 months). At the last follow‐up, the mean Constant–Murley score was 89.74 ± 3.71, the mean Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score was 9.77 ± 5.31, and the mean visual analogue score (VAS) was 0.74 ± 0.64. The apprehension test was all negative at final follow‐up. The fasting blood sugar level was 4.78 ± 0.42 mmol/L, BMI was 23.70 ± 4.70. Five patients were “smoking” and 22 “non‐smoking”, four patients were “drinking” and 23 were “non‐drinking.” The graft resorption rate at postoperative 1 year was 19.4% ± 7.5%. The Pearson test and the Spearman test showed no significant correlation between age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, drinking, and graft resorption rate. Conclusion Age, gender, dominant side, fasting blood sugar level, BMI, smoking, and drinking were not significantly correlated with graft resorption after the arthroscopic autologous scapular spine bone graft for recurrent shoulder instability.
