Latarjet vs. Modified Eden-Hybinette for Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Dislocation

This study focuses on finding the best treatment for recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder, a condition where the shoulder frequently slips out of its socket. It compares two surgical techniques: Latarjet and Modified Eden-Hybinette. The Latarjet technique has shown reliable results with low recurrence rates, but it comes with potential complications like neurological injuries and graft resorption. On the other hand, the Eden-Hybinette surgery has fewer risks and allows better restoration of the shoulder area, but it lacks the benefits of the 'sling effect' provided by the Latarjet technique. This research aims to address the current lack of high-quality studies comparing these two techniques, hoping to improve care and treatment outcomes for individuals with this condition. During the study, participants will undergo either the Latarjet or the Modified Eden-Hybinette surgery. The effectiveness of these surgeries will be measured using the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), a standard tool for assessing shoulder instability. This will help evaluate the success of each technique in reducing shoulder dislocations and improving overall shoulder function.
