Editorial Commentary: The Debate Over Double-Row Continues: Shoulder Arthroscopic Capsulolabral and Bankart Repair for Shoulder Instability.
In an in vitro cadaver study, the mechanical properties of capsulolabral repair were significantly improved with the authors' double-row technique over single-row repair. Whether this time zero improvement in mechanical properties will translate into improved clinical outcomes remains to be seen, and there are concerns, including risks of increased costs and complications, with the clinical application of the technique.
