Chronic anterior shoulder instability is a common condition affecting young, active individuals, leading to functional and sports-related disability. The Latarjet-Patte technique is a reference surgical option. The objective of our study is to report our experience with the Latarjet-Patte technique in 12 patients operated on over 30 months and to compare our results with updated data from the literature. This retrospective study included 12 patients operated on between August 2023 and January 2026. The primary outcome measure was the Walch-Duplay score. Complications and patient satisfaction were analyzed. All patients were athletic males (mean age 32 years). The Walch-Duplay score was excellent in 33.33% of cases; 91.66% of patients were satisfied. Postoperative stiffness was observed in 2 patients (16.66%), with no screw malpositioning on postoperative radiographs. No recurrence or non-union was noted. The Latarjet-Patte technique provides excellent functional outcomes and a low recurrence rate, provided rigorous bone block positioning and early rehabilitation are respected.
