Pearls and Pitfalls of Arthroscopic-Assisted Pectoralis Minor Transfer

Pearls	Pitfalls
Do not complete the osteotomy of the coracoid with the sharp instruments. Lever up the chisel that is tapped into the slot created on the anterior cortex	Neurovascular injury behind the coracoid process
Coracoplasty and soft-tissue dissection using the surgeon's finger behind the coracoid process facilitates the graft passage	Less mobility of the harvested pectoralis minor tendon
Use of a prebent malleable slot-shaped cannula to protect neurovascular structures posteromedial to the coracoid process during the graft passage	Aberrant anatomy of the pectoralis minor tendon
