Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Using Suture Anchors in recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder Evaluation of functional outcome

Dr Rajesh Singh, Dr Davinder Singh

Abstract :

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results in patients who underwent arthroscopic stabilization of shoulders with recurrent anterior dislocation . Hypothesis: Arthroscopic stabilization using suture anchors is useful without a large bone loss of glenohumeral articulation with no loss of function. Study Design: Prospective cohort study. Methods: The study group comprised 30 patients, with a mean follow–up of 3 years. Rowe score, range of motion, recurrence, and functional range of motion was evaluated at immediate post operatively,1st month, 3rd month and after every 1 year. Results: Mean Rowe score improved from 73 to 98 points. Mean Constant score improved from 9.3 to 3.2 points. According to Rowe score 90% were excellent, 6.6 % were good and 3.3% were fair post–op. Three (7%) had recurrence. All the patients resumed their daily routine activities and no restriction was found in doing activities after 3 years. Conclusion: Arthroscopic stabilization is a reliable procedure in bankart lesion.
