[Results of Bankart arthroplasty procedure in the treatment of recurrent dislocation of the shoulder].
The Bankart procedure is considered to be the common treatment for anterior instability of the shoulder but despite its popularity there have been no studies on the long-term outcome of this method. Results in 16 patients (14 males, 2 females, aged 19-35) treated with Bankart procedure are presented. Assessment of the results was based on postoperative clinical examination and a questionnaire (filled by a patient) inclusive of history of instability, level of pain, ability of the patient to function at home, at work and during sports. No instability has been found after the operation. Mean restriction of external rotation was 15 degrees, no other movement restriction occurred. Good clinical results were achieved in all cases, majority of patients admit high level of satisfaction.
