Comparing Latarjet and Modified Eden-Hybinette Surgeries for Treating Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are comparing two surgical techniques, Latarjet and Modified Eden-Hybinette, to treat patients with recurrent traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation. This clinical trial focuses on which procedure may offer better outcomes for patients experiencing repeated dislocations, especially those with significant bone loss. The study highlights the strengths and risks of each method, noting that prior research lacks direct comparisons between these two surgeries. The trial involves two groups one receiving the Latarjet procedure, which uses a coracoid bone graft fixed with screws and relies on a dynamic sling effect for shoulder stability the other undergoing the Modified Eden-Hybinette surgery, which uses an iliac bone crest graft with capsular repair and screw fixation. Both surgeries aim to restore shoulder stability by addressing bone loss but differ in technique and potential complications. Participants will be followed for two years with assessments including the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index WOSI, ROWE score, pain scales, dislocation recurrence, and shoulder function evaluations. Imaging with tomography and radiography will also be performed. Researchers will monitor complications and reoperations, measuring how well each surgery maintains shoulder stability and function over time.
