Functional outcome after arthroscopic management of traumatic recurrent dislocation shoulder using Bankart repair and Remplissage techniques.
Recurrent dislocation shoulder is one of the common shoulder injuries encountered by the orthopedic surgeon in clinical practice. Bankart repair using the arthroscopic method has become one of the standard techniques in the management of recurrent dislocation shoulder. Remplissage technique can be used as adjunct to Bankart repair in certain conditions. ⋯ The shoulder arthroscopy procedure requires special instrumentation and expertise. We believe that this is a less invasive and safe procedure and provides an additional tool in the management of instabilities including in cases of complex recurrent dislocation of the shoulder.
