Abstract

The Latarjet procedure is very popular and is the method of choice in cases of glenoid bone loss and anterior-inferior instability or revision procedures. However, recurrence is common after this procedure. One of the methods of revision after the Latarjet procedure is the Eden-Hybinette technique. However, recurrence occurs after this bone grafting procedure as well. The primary reasons for recurrence are graft resorption and capsular deficiency. To improve these outcomes, transfer of the long head of the biceps for capsular reinforcement has been recommended by several authors. We describe an all-arthroscopic procedure, performed after the Latarjet technique, that combines bone block transfer, trans-subscapular transposition of the long head of the biceps, and anterior labroplasty. This technique can significantly reinforce the deficient capsule through the sling effect and cover the graft for prophylaxis against bone resorption.
