Arthroscopic shoulder stabilization using FASTak suture anchors shows promising results, with low redislocation rates and high patient satisfaction. This technique offers advantages over open procedures for labrum fixation.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Arthroscopy

Background:

  • Suture-anchor systems are increasingly used for arthroscopic shoulder stabilization.
  • Various systems, including FASTak, Panalok, and Suretac, have been developed for labrum fixation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the outcomes of arthroscopic shoulder stabilization using different suture anchor systems.
  • To compare the efficacy of FASTak, Panalok, and Suretac anchors in patients undergoing shoulder stabilization.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study of 242 arthroscopic shoulder stabilizations performed between April 1996 and October 2000.
  • Patients were treated with FASTak (n=159), Panalok (n=26), or Suretac (n=57) suture anchors.
  • Follow-up examinations were conducted with a minimum of 12 months, with a 24-month assessment for redislocation rates.

Main Results:

  • The FASTak group demonstrated the best outcomes.
  • Redislocation occurred in 4.7% of patients at 2 years post-surgery.
  • Revision surgery was required in 28.6% of patients, with a mean Rowe score of 83.1 +/- 20.9.
  • Patient satisfaction was high, with 60.9% returning to their pre-operative sports level.

Conclusions:

  • Arthroscopic shoulder stabilization with FASTak suture anchors yields good clinical results.
  • This technique offers advantages compared to traditional open procedures.
  • The study supports the use of FASTak anchors for effective labrum fixation in shoulder stabilization.
