All Arthroscopic Salvage Technique for Intraoperative Vertical Split Coracoid Graft Fracture in Latarjet Procedure-Technical Note.

ABSTRACT: Intraoperative vertical coracoid graft fractures during the Latarjet procedure are well-described complications, which typically have a poor prognosis or may necessitate further iliac crest bone grafting for stabilization. The vertical split coracoid fractures are reasoned to be caused by excessive tightening of the screws, poor bone quality, especially in females and the smaller dimension of the coracoid graft. In this technical note, we propose an arthroscopic salvage technique for salvaging the fractured coracoid graft and to avoid the need for additional bone graft, thereby reducing morbidity to the patient. We use two double-loaded, all-suture anchors (Stryker, India) on either side of the split coracoid graft, and double-pulley configuration of suture tightening is done, providing compression and stability to the fractured graft.

Modified arthroscopic latarjet procedure with coracoid exteriorization for treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability.

Project description:The Latarjet procedure for treating anterior glenohumeral instability includes transfer of the coracoid and biceps tendon to the anterior glenoid. A modified method for the arthroscopic procedure was developed to facilitate the procedure and minimize the risk of injury to the brachial plexus. The detached coracoid was exteriorized through the anteroinferior portal for drilling and shaping. A Coracoid Drill Guide (Arthrex, Naples, FL) was used to help cut the coracoid to the desired size and make 2 drill holes in the coracoid for fixation to the glenoid. The Coracoid Transfer Instrument (Acierart, Masku, Finland) was designed to facilitate coracoid transfer and serve as a pin guide for fixation. Ten patients with severe anterior glenohumeral instability were treated with this technique. They had only mild to moderate postoperative pain. There were no postoperative infections or recurrent dislocations. The safety of this operation was similar to that of other operations on the coracoid process in the proximity of the brachial plexus. The modified arthroscopic Latarjet procedure may be applied successfully to the treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability, with good patient satisfaction and functional outcome.

Soft Arthroscopic Latarjet Procedure: Technical Note on Biceps Tendon as a Modified Sling for Restoration of Glenohumeral Stability.

Project description:As an alternate to sling glenohumeral restabilization mechanism of Latarjet procedure, recent different arthroscopic soft-tissue reconstructive techniques have been described for the management of glenohumeral instability. One of these techniques is trans-subscapularis bony tenodesis of long head of biceps (instead of coracoid graft transfer) to the anteroinferior glenoid. For simplification of the latter technique, the current article reports an alternative arthroscopic technique for management of glenohumeral instability in patients with type V SLAP lesion or poor soft-tissue quality of the anterior capsulolabral complex. In this technique, Bankart repair is followed by soft-tissue tenodesis of long head of biceps to upper border of subscapularis tendon by 2 simple stitches of non-absorbable sutures. Compared with previous ones, the currently reported technique is versatile, quick, technically simple, entirely intra-articular, and cost-saving; however, it is nonanatomic and should be investigated in biomechanical and cohort clinical studies to clarify its long-term validity.

Arthroscopic Management of a Coracoid Fracture Associated With Acromioclavicular Dislocation: Technical Note.

Project description:Operative management of a coracoid process fracture is indicated in case of painful nonunion, displacement of more than 1 cm, or multiple disruptions of the superior shoulder suspensory complex. Several techniques have been described with open reduction of the fracture and internal fixation using cortical screws with or without additional fixation of the acromioclavicular joint. This Technical Note aims to introduce an alternative safe, minimally invasive method for arthroscopic fixation of a coracoid fracture with simultaneously reduction of the acromioclavicular joint. The described arthroscopic technique might be helpful for shoulder surgeons who want to fix the coracoid process while avoiding the disadvantages of an open approach.

Arthroscopy-Assisted Latarjet Procedure With Coracoid Exteriorization.

Project description:The Latarjet procedure is a method for treating complicated glenohumeral joint dislocation that is often associated with a bone defect in the anterior glenoid. The Latarjet procedure addresses both soft-tissue and bone deficiencies by creating a biceps tendon sling and through bone reconstruction of the anterior glenoid defect. The arthroscopic Latarjet procedure provides good visual control in the structures and eliminates the need for an arthrotomy. We present an arthroscopy-assisted Latarjet technique where the coracoid is temporarily exteriorized to facilitate shaping and preparation for subsequent fixation to the glenoid. Coracoid debridement, anterior glenoid preparation, and the subscapular split are conducted arthroscopically. Cutting the coracoid process is also conducted under arthroscopic control, and the coracoid is exposed through the anteroinferior portal. Once the coracoid is openly shaped and the drill-holes are made, the coracoid is resituated and fixed to the glenoid edge in arthroscopic visual control. The purpose of this technique is to combine favorable elements of the open and arthroscopic procedures. Additionally, the instrumentation is simple, which makes the operation safe and practical to perform.

Arthroscopic Latarjet Procedure: A Technique Using Double Round ENDOBUTTONs and Specific Glenoid and Coracoid Guides.

Project description:The Latarjet procedure is a method used for the treatment of shoulder instability in the presence of bone loss. A decade after the first description of the fully arthroscopic Latarjet procedure, modifications to the technique were reported to decrease the risk of complications and improve the position of the bone block. A recent trend toward the use of buttons to fix the coracoid has been reported. The technique described here is an arthroscopic Latarjet procedure that uses 2 pairs of round buttons as an alternative to screw fixation or the use of a single button, and the technique aims to combine the original procedure with safe and stable fixation.

Arthroscopic Latarjet Procedure Using FiberTape Cerclage With a Simplified Technique for Suture Passage and Coracoid Fixation.

Project description:Arthroscopic Latarjet has evolved as a reproducible procedure to address significant anterior glenoid bone loss in recurrent anterior instability of the shoulder joint. While arthroscopic Bankart procedure for anterior shoulder instability has changed from metal anchors to absorbable or soft all-suture anchors to avoid metal-ware and subsequent abrasion in cases of osteolysis or backout, Latarjet procedure, until recently couple of titanium screws were used to fix the coracoid bone to the anterior glenoid. Arthroscopic techniques for Latarjet procedure of coracoid bone transfer have shown results similar to the open technique in many recent studies. We use an all-arthroscopic technique that is different and easier from the currently described technique using FiberTape cerclage loops, with 2 ultrabraid tapes fixing the coracoid bone to the prepared anteroinferior glenoid surface. The repair is completed using all-suture anchors to fix the anterior capsule over the attached coracoid, thus exteriorizing the transferred bone and preventing contact with the moving humeral head.

Arthroscopic Remnant Coracoid Autograft for Revision of the Failed Latarjet Procedure With Persistent Glenoid Bone Loss.

Project description:Recurrence of anterior instability after a Latarjet procedure with persistent glenoid bone loss can be related to coracoid bone block resorption, migration, or malposition. Multiple options are available to address anterior glenoid bone loss, including autograft bone transfers (such as iliac crest graft, distal clavicle autograft) or allografts (distal tibia allograft). Here, we present the use of the remnant coracoid process as an option for consideration in the treatment of glenoid bone loss after failed Latarjet procedure with persistent glenoid bone loss. The remnant coracoid autograft is harvested and transferred inside the glenohumeral joint, through the rotator interval, and fixed using cortical buttons. This arthroscopic procedure includes using 1) glenoid and coracoid drilling guides to optimize graft positioning and making the procedure more reproducible and safer and 2) a suture tensioning device to provide intraoperative graft compression and ensure bone graft healing.

Arthroscopic Screw Removal After Arthroscopic Latarjet Procedure.

Project description:Arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is an efficient and reliable approach for the treatment of shoulder instability. Nevertheless, the screws fixing the bone block may sometimes be responsible for pain and uncomfortable snapping in the shoulder that is triggered during active external rotation. We propose an all-arthroscopic technique for screw removal in cases of complications involving the screws from a Latarjet procedure. The all-arthroscopic screw removal is reliable and efficient. This procedure is indicated in more cases than thought because of the bone block resorption. It permits a revision of the glenohumeral joint in case of persisting pain.

Arthroscopic Latarjet Procedure Combined With Bankart Repair: A Technique Using 2 Cortical Buttons and Specific Glenoid and Coracoid Guides.

Project description:The arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is challenging because it can be difficult to place 2 screws parallel to the glenoid surface and a medial portal (dangerous for the brachial plexus) is mandatory. In addition, precise positioning of the coracoid bone block flush with the joint line and in a subequatorial position as recommended is troublesome without the use of a guiding system because of the arthroscopic lens distortion. To improve the reproducibility of the arthroscopic Latarjet procedure and to minimize the risk of nerve complications, we developed a guiding system to optimize the positioning of the coracoid bone block and 2 cortical buttons to facilitate its fixation. Four portals are used: a posterior standard portal and 3 anterior portals, all lateral to the conjoint tendon. The anterior rim of the glenoid and the coracoid process are prepared. Two holes are drilled in the glenoid and in the coracoid process with 2 specific guides. The subscapularis is then split, and 2 cortical buttons are passed from posterior to anterior through the tunnels with a shuttle relay. The coracoid process undergoes osteotomy and is guided through the split in the subscapularis to the anteroinferior rim of the glenoid by pulling on the cortical buttons.

Use of 3D-Printed Patient-Specific Guide for Latarjet Procedure in Patients With Anterior Shoulder Instability: Technical Note.

Project description:Anterior shoulder instability can lead to anterior glenoid bone loss associated with humeral posterior deformity (bipolar bone loss). Latarjet procedure is a commonly used surgical option in such cases. However, the procedure is associated with complications in up 15% of the cases often associated with inadequate positioning of coracoid bone graft and screws. Considering that acknowledgment of patient anatomy and use of surgical planning intraoperatively can reduce such complications, we describe the use of 3D printing tools to obtain a 3D Patient-Specific Surgical Guide to aid in the Latarjet procedure. Such tools present advantages and limitations compared to other tools available, which are also discussed in this article.
