Abstract

Introduction: The shoulder joint is the most common major joint to dislocate. Population aged younger than 20 years, recurrent dislocation rates have been reported to be as high as 90%. For those individuals that continue to experience dislocations surgery is often a good decision. The goal of the Bankart surgery is to reconnect the torn labrum to the glenoid fossa. Double-row Bankart repair can both achieve anatomic reduction and enhance fixation stability. The purpose of our study is to assess the clinical outcome of arthroscopic double row repair.

Methods: 49 cases with Bankart lesion operated by double row repair were studied. Functional outcome and retear were assessed after at least 6 months of surgery using scores and MRI.

Results: Significant improvement in functional outcome after repair by double row Bankart repair. No retear or redislocation seen.

Conclusion: Double row repair technique improves function of shoulder significantly and potentially minimizes future re-injury or recurrence risk.
