Displaced bony avulsion of the hamstring origin is a rare condition that necessitates surgical treatment. This article describes the surgical treatment of acute apophyseal separation of the ischial tuberosity via open reduction and internal fixation with cortical screws.

Arthroscopic Latarjet procedure is an efficient and reliable approach for the treatment of shoulder instability. Nevertheless, the screws fixing the bone block may sometimes be responsible for pain and uncomfortable snapping in the shoulder that is triggered during active external rotation. We propose an all-arthroscopic technique for screw removal in cases of complications involving the screws from a Latarjet procedure. The all-arthroscopic screw removal is reliable and efficient. This procedure is indicated in more cases than thought because of the bone block resorption. It permits a revision of the glenohumeral joint in case of persisting pain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
