Return to Professional Australian Rules Football After Surgery for Traumatic Anterior Shoulder Instability

Abstract: Background: The treatment of traumatic anterior shoulder instability in professional Australian Football League (AFL) players is challenging, with an emphasis on early return to play and avoidance of instability recurrence. Purpose: To investigate return-to-sport (RTS) outcomes and complications after 2 different procedures for traumatic anterior shoulder instability in professional AFL players. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our surgical database for pro… Show more

“…The benefits of the Latarjet procedure have been well documented, with its important role in providing GHJ stability in patients with significant bone loss, failed primary procedures, and in athletes mandating return to elite contact sport. 3,7,10,27,29 In this study, there was no significant difference in the rate of bony union between participants undergoing a Latarjet with unicortical vs. those with bicortical screw fixation. However, the absolute numbers of patients with nonunion were small, and the study was underpowered to demonstrate a statistically significant difference.…”

“…1,8,17,18,22 The risks of higher intraoperative and postoperative complications (other than recurrence) with the Latarjet than with a capsulolabral repair 40 and the possibility of early glenohumeral degenerative change 8,16 need to be weighed up against the benefit of a low rate of recurrence in the context of the individual patient presentation and functional goals. 29 In 1954, Latarjet described his procedure of transferring the coracoid process to the anterior margin of the glenoid. 21 Its stabilizing mechanism was thought to be multimodal with increase of the glenoid surface area, the sling effect of the conjoint tendon, and repair of the capsulolabral complex to the bone block.…”

“…Only players who were injured and returned in season were analyzed for return-to-play timelines, as patients out of season may have significantly skewed the results and misrepresented the return-to-sport times given the long off-season period. 21 The context of any complications was also reported (ie, postsurgical complications, reinjury). The mean follow-up time for rerupture of the PM muscle was determined by the player’s return-to-sport date until the end of data collection (September 30, 2021).…”
