A Case Report: Chronic anterior shoulder instability treated with the Latarjet procedure

Dr. Jithin Jose Thomas, Dr. Rajasekhar

Abstract :

Shoulder dislocations can cause both acute and chronic instabilities that need to be addressed in order to restore shoulder functioning. Volley ball is a game that requires frequent overhead movement of the arm, which tends to eventually lax the ligaments and lead to recurrent shoulder dislocations. The Latarjet procedure is one among other procedures done for recurrent shoulder dislocations, where the glenoid is augmented to help provide stability to the shoulder joint. We, hereby, report a case of chronic shoulder instability in a volley ball player treated surgically with Latarjet procedure.
