About Arthroscopic Latarjet

The Arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is a minimally invasive surgical technique performed by orthopedic surgeons to treat recurrent shoulder instability, particularly when there is significant bone loss from the glenoid (shoulder socket). This advanced procedure involves transferring a piece of bone from the coracoid process (a part of the shoulder blade) to the front of the glenoid using small incisions and an arthroscopic camera. This creates a 'bony block' that prevents the humeral head from dislocating forward. It is considered the gold standard for complex shoulder dislocations, offering greater stability than soft-tissue repairs alone. The arthroscopic approach minimizes tissue damage, reduces post-operative pain, and can lead to a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Key Highlights

Minimally invasive technique using small incisions and an arthroscope.Gold standard for treating shoulder instability with significant bone loss.Creates a strong, biological 'bony block' to prevent future dislocations.Typically results in lower recurrence rates compared to soft-tissue-only repairs.May allow for better visualization of the joint and associated injuries.Often leads to less post-operative pain and a quicker initial recovery than open surgery./ul

Who is this surgery for?

Recurrent anterior shoulder instability (dislocations) after failed conservative treatment.
Significant bone loss from the front of the glenoid socket (usually >20-25%).
Engaging Hill-Sachs lesions (bone defects on the humeral head).
Failed previous soft-tissue stabilization surgery (e.g., Bankart repair).
Instability in high-demand athletes or individuals with high-risk occupations.
Instability due to traumatic injury with associated bone defects.

How to prepare

Complete a thorough orthopedic evaluation, including physical exam and imaging (X-rays, CT scan, MRI).
Discuss medical history, allergies, and all current medications with the surgical team.
You may be asked to stop taking certain blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, warfarin) days before surgery.
Arrange for assistance at home for the first few weeks post-surgery.
Follow pre-operative fasting instructions (typically no food or drink after midnight).
Plan for post-operative rehabilitation by meeting with a physical therapist.

Risks & possible complications

General surgical risks: Infection, bleeding, blood clots, or adverse reaction to anesthesia.
Nerve or blood vessel injury around the shoulder, potentially causing weakness or numbness.
Recurrence of instability, though the risk is lower than with other procedures.
Stiffness or reduced range of motion in the shoulder.
Hardware-related issues (pain, loosening) from the screws used to secure the bone block.
Non-union or malunion of the transferred coracoid bone graft.
Development of arthritis in the joint over the long term.

Recovery & hospital stay

Immediately after surgery, the arm is placed in a sling for immobilization, typically for 3-6 weeks.
Pain is managed with prescribed medications and ice therapy to reduce swelling.
Early physical therapy focuses on gentle pendulum exercises and elbow/wrist/hand motion.
Gradual progression to active-assisted and then active range-of-motion exercises over several weeks.
Strengthening exercises usually begin after 6-12 weeks, once the bone has healed.
A full return to non-contact sports may take 4-6 months; contact sports may require 6-9 months or more.
Follow-up appointments are crucial to monitor healing and progress through the rehabilitation protocol.

Typical hospital stay: 1-2 days
Expected recovery time: 4-6 months for full functional recovery
