Assessment of Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Among Patients of Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation

Background: The shoulder is one of the foremost common and regularly dislocated joints within the body, accounting for quite 50% of all dislocations. the commonest complication of shoulder dislocation is recurrent instability. It accounts for a mean of 70-90% recurrence in patients between the age bracket of 20-40 years. The shoulder joint is liable for a wide selection of motion at various positions in three-dimensional space by utilizing the glenohumeral joint as a fulcrum. Material & Methods : 30 patients with recurrent dislocation of shoulder with Bankart lesion, treated with arthroscopic stabilization with suture anchors for surgical and functional outcome according to inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in the present study. Study participants were enrolled by simple random sampling. Clearance from the hospital ethics committee was taken before the start of the study. Written informed consent was taken from each study participant. Results: In the present study, out of total study participants, based on the number of suture anchors used, among the majority of patients 3 suture anchors were used (73.3%), and among 26.6% patients 2 suture anchors were used. In the present study, out of total study participants, based on the total ROWE score, the mean pre-operative score was 57, the mean total ROWE score at 3 rd week was 69, the mean total ROWE score at 6 th week was 71. the mean total ROWE score at 12 th week was 82 and the mean total ROWE score at 1 year was 94. Postoperatively 90% of patients out of total attained a full range of external rotation in 90abduction by the end of one year. Conclusion: We concluded from the present study that patients with recurrent dislocation of shoulder with Bankart lesion, treated with arthroscopic stabilization with suture anchors had a good surgical and functional outcome. This operative method provides excellent postoperative shoulder motion and lesser recurrence rates. ; Background: The shoulder is one of the foremost common and regularly dislocated joints ...
