Glenoid Bone Loss

Traumatic glenohumeral dislocation or chronic glenohumeral dislocation/subluxation can cause damage to or fracture the glenoid rim. The resulting bone loss leads to instability that cannot be corrected with soft-tissue/labral repair alone. Common reconstructive techniques include Latarjet or glenoid augmentation using free bone block grafts, such as iliac crest or distal tibia. The increase in bone surface area leads to a stabilized glenohumeral joint. Arthrex offers a portfolio of instruments and fixation devices to accommodate a wide range of glenoid bone loss techniques.
