[Results of shoulder anterior instability treatment with Bankart procedure]

The goal of the study was to analyse the results of 16 open Bankart reconstructions performed with Mitek GII anchors in recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Assessment of results was based on Constant and Rowe scales. Mean result in Constant scale was 93.82 and in Rowe scale 85.9 points. No instability was found after the operation in this group. Open Bankart procedure with Mitek GII anchors is effective in treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder instability while shoulder arthroscopy is very a useful preemptive diagnostic procedure.
