Background: Open Bankart surgery is the main treatment procedure in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, especially in cases with glenoid bone defect. The goal of this study was to determine the outcomes after open Bankart surgery in cases of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with glenoid bone defects and concomitant Hill-Sachs lesions. Methods: Between 2006 and 2010,...

PURPOSE Both open and arthroscopic Bankart repair are established procedures in the treatment of anterior shoulder instability. While the open procedure is still considered as the "golden standard" functional outcome is supposed to be better in the arthroscopic procedure. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare the functional outcome between open and arthroscopic Bankart repair. MA...

BACKGROUND The results following open revision surgery following a failed arthroscopic Bankart procedure are not well documented. PURPOSE To evaluate the results of patients with a failed arthroscopic Bankart repair treated with a traditional, open Bankart repair. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Thirty patients (28 male and 2 female) who had a mean age of 24 years ...

BACKGROUND Surgical intervention for anterior shoulder instability is commonly performed and is highly successful in reducing instances of recurrent instability. PURPOSE To determine and compare the incidence of 30-day complications and patient and surgical risk factors for complications for arthroscopic Bankart, open Bankart, and Latarjet-Bristow procedures. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Leve...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to review the clinical results of electrothermal capsulorrhaphy (ETC) performed on 23 patients for the treatment of glenohumeral instability at an minimum follow-up of 2 years. TYPE OF STUDY Retrospective case series. METHODS Twenty-six patients with symptomatic unidirectional or multidirectional glenohumeral instability without Bankart tear were treated...

BACKGROUND The optimal treatment for Bankart lesion remains controversial. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to compare the clinical outcomes of patients managed with open Bankart repair versus arthroscopic Bankart repair. MATERIAL AND METHODS After systematic review of online databases, a total of 11 trials with 1022 subjects were included. The methodological quality of randomized c...

The most common surgical techniques for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder instability include the arthroscopic Bankart repair, the open Bankart repair and the open Latarjet procedure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the long-term outcomes following these procedures. A systematic review of modern procedures with a minimum follow-up of 5 years was completed. The o...

PURPOSE The purposes of this study were (1) to analyze long-term outcomes in patients who have undergone open or arthroscopic Bankart repair and (2) to evaluate study methodologic quality through validated tools. METHODS We performed a systematic review of Level I to IV Evidence using PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Clinical outcome stud...

BACKGROUND The results of open and arthroscopic instability repairs have been shown to be equivalent in recent literature. PURPOSE To compare the time to recurrence (TTR) of instability and disease-specific outcome measures in patients undergoing open and arthroscopic Bankart repair. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients with recurrent traumatic anterior should...
