Zusammenfassung:Surgical constructs, assemblies and methods of tissue fixation are disclosed. An anterior glenoid guide is a cuboid block configured to be introduced via the rotator interval to lie on the anterior glenoid. The guide has an internal thread for a handle and two flanges which lie on the anterior glenoid. On the anterior face (opposite the neck of the glenoid), the guide is provided with two holes which are sized to receive a drill guide. The holes mate with slots such that the block can be removed after sutures and fixation devices are installed. The anterior glenoid guide can be an arthroscopic anterior glenoid graft guide.
