Abstract

Bony Bankart lesions of the anterior glenoid arise from traumatic glenohumeral instability events and can predispose persons to recurrent instability if not surgically stabilized. Large osseous fragments, when repaired anatomically, have excellent stability and functional outcomes; however, techniques to achieve this repair are often either tenuous or overcomplicated. In this technique guide, we describe a repair technique based on established biomechanical principles that achieves a reliable, anatomic glenoid articular surface. This technique can be readily applied in most bony Bankart settings using standard anterior labral repair instrumentation and implants.
