- Shoulder dislocations
- Torn labrum
- Recurrent shoulder instability
Dislocations of the shoulder are common. They affect people from 15 to 35 years old most frequently. Older people who dislocate their shoulders are likely to have tears in the rotator cuff. People who have a shoulder dislocation have a 50% chance of developing instability in the opposite shoulder. A loose shoulder is one of the risk factors for traumatic instability.
A Bankart repair surgery is usually done with arthroscopic technique under general anesthesia. It aims at restoring the health of the affected shoulder by reshaping and reattaching the torn labrum.
Arthroscopic Bankart repair is a shoulder joint surgery performed through relatively small incisions so as to avoid invasive, risky open surgery. It is often used to treat lean tear of the labrum in the shoulder joint. The procedure begins with an arthroscopic examination via arthroscope of the shoulder joint and other associated structures. Through arthroscope, fragile tissues are identified and examined closely using arthroscopy.
Restructuring of torn or damaged tissues is carried out under direct visualization. Infected or inflamed tissues are debrided carefully. Tears are fixed by sutures and resistant tears are reconstructed by other means. The restoration of anatomic integrity ensures joint stability. After completion of the procedure, a sterile dressing is wrapped on the injured area to promote healing, protect the tissues from infection and prevent further movement in the involved area. The wound may be covered with a bandage which will then take care no further movement in that region and slowly heal itself under adequate support.
