Arthroscopic Anatomical Glenoid Reconstruction Using Iliac Crest Autograft With Double End-Button Fixation Technique.

ABSTRACT: Arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction is increasingly recognized as an effective surgical technique for addressing significant glenoid bone loss associated with shoulder instability. This technical note provides a step-by-step guide for performing arthroscopic anatomic glenoid reconstruction using an iliac crest autograft with double TightRope end-button fixation (Arthrex, Naples, FL). The procedure is conducted through 3 arthroscopic portals: anteroinferior, anterosuperior, and posterior. Bone tunnels on the glenoid undersurface are created using a Transglenoid Drill Guide (Arthrex). A tricortical autograft measuring 20 mm in length and 10 mm in width is harvested from the ipsilateral iliac crest. Two bone tunnels are prepared in the graft to accommodate 2 TightRope and DogBone con
