ABSTRACT
The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic repair of Bankart lesion using the biodegradable polyglyconate implant(Suretac) for the treatment of traumatic anterior shoulder instability. Although the arthroscopic procedure using the Suretac device has some technical advantages over others, there have been reports of the higher failure rate than open procedure. Eight shoulders in 8 patients who had traumatic anterior instability of the shoulder with Bankart lesion were managed with this procedure. They were followed up for average 2 years (range 1 year 4 months to 2 years 5 months). During the follow-up period, all the patients showed full range of motion of the shoulder without recurrence of instability. It was our impression that success rate of the procedure could be improved by careful selection of the patient, the accurate arthroscopic technique, and the good rehabilitation program.
