Article Abstract
Successful Latarjet procedures depend on many factors including graft union and subsequent restoration of the glenoid surface. Coracoid graft union has been studied; however, remodelling of the glenoid has not been studied extensively. We present two Latarjet cases in which coracoid screws were removed due to hardware issues, at 12 months postoperatively in one patient and at six months in another. We share our observations on the coracoid graft and the restoration of the glenoid shape. Prior to screw removal, done by a mini-open approach, we performed arthroscopic examination of the glenohumeral joint in both patients. Our arthroscopic and open findings with respect to graft union, screw prominence, and glenoid remodelling, are presented. Both cases showed good union of the coracoid graft and restoration of the native glenoid shape. Key Words: Shoulder dislocation, Surgery, Complications, Coracoid process.

Functional outcomes of an open latarjet procedure for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation in Yemen.
Int Orthop

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Al-Thawra Modern General Hospital, Sana'a, Yemen.
Introduction: Shoulder dislocations occur in approximately 45% of all joint types, and anterior shoulder dislocations account for more than 90% of cases. The purpose of this study was to assess the functional outcomes of an open Latarjet operation for patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations.
Methods: A prospective hospital-based study was conducted at the Orthopaedic Department of Al Thawra Modern General Hospital, Sana'a City, between 2015 and 2022.

Rationale: Glenoid fractures, representing approximately 10% of scapular fractures, are uncommon but clinically significant due to their frequent association with high-energy trauma. Without timely and adequate management, such injuries may lead to complications including nonunion, osteoarthritis, and chronic instability, especially when fracture patterns are complex or extend into the scapular body. This report highlights the unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of managing an Ideberg type Vb glenoid fracture.

Backgroud: Proper sizing of the coracoid is an important factor when using the Latarjet procedure. However, several studies have reported that the Asian coracoid may not be large enough for the Latarjet. A distal clavicle has recently been suggested as a locally available osteoarticular graft for restoring glenoid bone loss.

Recurrent anterior shoulder instability is a common problem and may be associated with glenoid bone defects. Surgical procedures, including Latarjet, are the usual treatment for anterior shoulder instability, associated with significant glenoid bone defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome and glenohumeral arthritis progression in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability and significant bone loss treated by a modified Latarjet procedure.
