OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mid-term effect of lateral placement of bone graft on shoulder joint degeneration after modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with an anterior glenoid bone defect. METHODS: According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 18 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and anterior glenoid bone defect who received the modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation between January 2015 and November 2016 were enrolled in this study. There were 12 males and 6 females with an average age of 26.2 years (range, 19-37 years). The number of shoulder dislocation ranged from 4 to 30 times (mean, 8.8 times). The disease duration was 8-49 months (mean, 23.8 months). The mean anterior glenoid bone defect was 25.2% of the glenoid surface (range, 20%-29%). The mean preoperative Instability Severity Index Score (ISIS) was 7.6 (range, 7-10). According to Samilson-Prieto classification, the shoulder joint degeneration was rated as grade 0 in 13 cases, grade Ⅰ in 3 cases, and grade Ⅱ in 2 cases. Before and after operation, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (ASES) score, Walch-Duplay score, Rowe score, and shoulder mobility were used to evaluate the effectiveness. Imaging examination was performed to observe the shoulder joint degeneration, the position of the bone graft, and the postoperative shaping of the scapular glenoid. RESULTS: All patients were followed up 55-62 months, with an average of 59.6 months. There was no neurovascular injuries, infections, fixation-related and bone graft-related complications. No re-dislocation and revision occurred. All patients returned to normal life, 17 of whom returned to sport. The VAS score was significantly decreased and ASES, Walch-Duplay, and Rowe scores were significantly improved at last follow-up ( P<0.05). No significant difference was found in range of motion of forward flexion, abduction, lateral rotation at 90° abduction, internal rotation at 90° abduction, or lateral rotation at 0° between pre- and post-operation ( P>0.05). Three-dimensional CT showed that the centers of all bone grafts were between 3∶30 and 4∶30 (right shoulder) or between 7∶40 and 8∶20 (left shoulder) and no bone grafts were positioned superiorly or inferiorly in the glenoid En-face view. All bone grafts were positioned lateral to the scapular glenoid with an average distance of 3.5 mm (range, 2.3-4.6 mm) in cross-sectional imaging by CT. Compared with the preoperative Samilson-Prieto classification results, all cases showed no progression of shoulder joint degeneration at 36, 48 months and last follow-up. All bone grafts remodeled to a steady state within 24 months after operation. The bone graft and glenoid finally remodeled analogous to the shape of the intact glenoid in the En-face view and became flush with the glenoid rim, remodeling to a curved shape congruent to the humeral head in cross-sectional imaging by CT. The shape of the remodeled glenoid at last follow-up was not significantly different from that at 24 months after operation. CONCLUSION: The lateral placement of the bone graft during modified arthroscopic Latarjet surgery with elastic fixation do not accelerate the imaging changes of shoulder joint degeneration.
