Effect of Combining a Posterosuperior Humeral Notch Filling With a Coracoid Bone Block on the Rate of Return to Sport
Sponsor: Clinique Saint Jean, France
Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to demonstrate the benefit of combining filling of the posterosuperior notch of the humerus with a coracoid stop on the rate of return to sports at the same level as before at 12 months post-surgery. The level of sport will be categorized as recreational, competitive, or professional. This is a prospective, single-center, comparative study of two parallel randomized groups, using a single-blind design. The patients included will be randomized into two groups with a 1:1 ratio: one group will undergo the filling technique, while the second group will not. The rest of the surgery will be similar. Randomization will be stratified according to initial athletic level.

Filling of the posterior superior notch of the humerus
The intervention involves bringing part of the coracoid bone with the tendon attached to it onto the front of the glenoid cavity. The stop is secured with an endobutton. The additional procedure used in this study is filling the posterosuperior notch of the humerus. The filling technique involves placing two anchors, which causes tenodesis of the infraspinatus in the posterosuperior notch of the humerus.
