Prof Imam and his team investigated this interesting subject. They investigated clinical outcomes, focusing on how results change over time. The findings indicate that the Latarjet procedure is associated with a lower risk of redislocation and recurrence, particularly in the long term (6-10 years post-operation). Conversely, the Bankart repair showed a lower risk of infection. Both procedures demonstrated comparable outcomes regarding patient-reported scores (Rowe score), the need for revision surgery, and the incidence of hematoma formation. The study emphasizes the importance of considering follow-up time when evaluating the efficacy of these surgical interventions for shoulder instability.
