Anatomical study of the limited osteotomy suture button fixation Latarjet procedure with coracoacromial ligament preservation
Objective To investigate the morphological characteristics of the glenohumeral joint(including the glenoid and coracoid)in the Chinese population and determine the feasibility of designing coracoid osteotomy based on the preoperative glenoid defect arc length by constructing glenoid defect models and simulating suture button fixation Latarjet procedure.Methods Twelve shoulder joint specimens from 6 adult cadavers donated voluntarily were harvested.First,whether the coracoacromial ligament and conjoint tendon connected was anatomically observed and their intersection point was identified.The vertical distance from the intersection point to the coracoid,the maximum allowable osteotomy length starting from the intersection point,and the maximum osteotomy angle were measured.Next,the anteroinferior glenoid defect models of different degrees were randomly constructed.The arc length and area of the glenoid defect were measured.Based on the arc length of the glenoid defect of the model,the size of coracoid oblique osteotomy was designed and the actual length and angle of the coracoid osteotomy were measured.A limited osteotomy suture button fixation Latarjet procedure with the coracoacromial ligament and pectoralis minor preservation was performed and the position of coracoid block was observed.Results All shoulder joint specimens exhibited crossing fibers between the coracoacromial ligament and the conjoint tendon.The vertical distance from the tip of the coracoid to the coracoid return point was 24.8-32.2 mm(mean,28.5 mm).The maximum allowable osteotomy length starting from the intersection point was 26.7-36.9 mm(mean,32.0 mm).The maximum osteotomy angle was 58.8°-71.9°(mean,63.5°).Based on the anteroinferior glenoid defect model,the arc length of the glenoid defect was 22.6-29.4 mm(mean,26.0 mm);the ratio of glenoid defect was 20.8％-26.2％(mean,23.7％).Based on the coracoid block,the length of the coracoid osteotomy was 23.5-31.4 mm(mean,26.4 mm);the osteotomy angle was 51.3°-69.2°(mean,57.1°).There was no significant difference between the arc length of the glenoid defect and the length of the coracoid osteotomy(P＞0.05).After simulating the suture button fixation Latarjet procedure,the highest points of the coracoid block(suture loop fixation position)in all models located below the optimal center point,with the bone block concentrated in the anteroinferior glenoid defect position.Conclusion The size of the coracoid is generally sufficient to meet the needs of repairing larger glenoid defects.The oblique osteotomy with preserving the coracoacromial ligament may potentially replace the traditional Latarjet osteotomy method.
