Pearls and Pitfalls

1. The surgeon should create the posterior portal 10 mm lateral to the standard portal

2. The surgeon should enlarge the posterior portal with radiofrequency to make the entrance of the hook easier

3. The guide hook should be placed at the center of the glenoid defect

4. The surgeon should enlarge the anteroinferior portal in the rotator interval very well, while retrieving out the cannula

5. The metal cannula could take a wrong path

6. The North and the South must be marked in the graft and the South has to be passed first, keeping guidewires in a parallel position

7. The surgeon should keep the arm in neutral rotation and tape sutures in traction in a parallel position while the anchor for tenodesis is inserted into the bone

8. Anchor bone hole should be made over the top of the glenoid edge
