Can congruent arc Latarjet procedure be done on Indian population?

Background: With positive long-term outcomes, Latarjet process is often utilized to treat instability in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. The congruent arc Latarjet procedure, a variation on the traditional surgical method, was reported by Burkhart et al. Our study's objective was to determine if the Latarjet method was feasible through carrying out an anthropometric examination of the coracoid procedure in the Indian population. Methods: 75 human scapulae were used in the study. Using a digital vernier caliper, the coracoid process's dimensions were determined. Measurements have been taken of coracoid process's midpoint height, length, tip width, midpoint breadth, tip height along with maximum height. Results: In the Indian population, the average coracoid length was 22.68 mm. The coracoid tip measured 7.88 mm in thickness and 13.25 mm in breadth. The midpoint's average width and height were 11.6 mm and 10.62 mm, respectively. The coracoid's maximum height was 18.49 mm. Conclusion: Our population's coracoid process dimensions differ from those of the Western population. Indian population had an average thickness of 7.88 mm, which is too thin to accept a 4 mm screw. Attempting congruent arc latarjet increases the risk of coracoid graft damage. Therefore, it is advised that our patients undergo conventional Latarjet procedure.
