How Latarjet (Coracoid Transfer/Bone Block) is performed
This procedure is based on the displacement of an autologous coracoid bone block. If applicable, an open or arthroscopic approach can be selected and combined with joint capsule treatment. A common practice is to expose the anterior glenoid under general anesthesia, resect and shape the coracoid process, position it on the anterior edge of the glenoid, and fix it with screws or a button device to form a bony block and tendon restraint effect. After completion, check the position and stability. Postoperatively, monitor bleeding, neurovascular supply, and anterior shoulder discomfort. Rehabilitation is carried out sequentially, with the goal of stability and fusion. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific information is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
