Latarjet surgery is a specialized shoulder stabilization procedure used to treat recurrent shoulder dislocations, especially when there is bone loss in the shoulder socket. The surgery involves transferring a small piece of bone with attached muscle to the front of the glenoid, creating a strong barrier that prevents further dislocations. This technique improves joint stability and function over the long term. Patients opting for latarjet surgery in Chennai benefit from advanced surgical expertise and structured rehabilitation for lasting shoulder support.
Recovery after Latarjet surgery typically occurs in stages. Patients usually wear a sling for about 3–4 weeks to allow initial healing. Physiotherapy begins gradually to restore movement, strength, and stability. Most individuals return to daily activities within 6–8 weeks, while sports or heavy physical activity may take 4–6 months. Following medical guidance is essential for optimal recovery. With latarjet surgery in Chennai, patients receive comprehensive post-operative care and guided rehabilitation for safe and effective healing.
The main difference between Latarjet and Bankart surgery lies in the cause of shoulder instability. Bankart repair is ideal for soft tissue labral tears without bone loss, while Latarjet surgery is preferred when there is significant bone damage to the shoulder socket. Latarjet provides additional stability by adding bone support, making it suitable for recurrent dislocations. Choosing latarjet surgery in Chennai ensures expert evaluation to determine the most effective procedure for long-term shoulder stability.
