Purpose: To assess the learning curve of arthroscopic Latarjet, evaluating time of surgery, clinical outcomes, complications, revisions, and recurrence.

Methods: Arthroscopic Latarjet procedures performed from 2011 to 2016 were reviewed. Satisfaction rate, subjective shoulder value, Walch-Duplay, Rowe scores, range of motion, and stability were evaluated on clinical examination.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes after arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation in anterior shoulder instability.

Methods: Ninety-three patients after primary arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation were reviewed. Satisfaction, subjective shoulder value (SSV), Walch-Duplay and Rowe scores, and range of motion and stability were evaluated on clinical examination.

Purpose And Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to evaluate and to compare the radiological parameters after arthroscopic and open Latarjet technique via evaluation of computed tomography (CT) scans. Our hypothesis was that the radiological results after arthroscopic stabilisation remained in the proximity of those results achieved after open stabilisation.

Material And Methods: CT scan evaluation results of patients after primary Latarjet procedure were analysed.

Purpose And Hypothesis: The aim of this study was to compare early clinical results after open and arthroscopic Latarjet stabilisation in anterior shoulder instability. Our hypothesis was the results of arthroscopic stabilisation were comparable with the results of open procedure.

Material And Methods: The clinical results of the patients after primary Latarjet procedure were analysed.
