Anterior Shoulder Stabilization Using Single Needle-Assisted Outside-In Remplissage Technique and Bankart Repair

Arthroscopic repair of Bankart injury is the first choice for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability. How to avoid recurring shoulder joint dislocation is a challenge, especially when combined with Hill-Sachs lesions. The arthroscopy technology allows for broader vision and less surgical trauma but is limited by a smaller operating space. At present, extensive descriptions about the surgical procedure of arthroscopic Bankart repair have been published. In this Technical Note, we describe the use of remplissage filling with Hill-Sachs lesion combined with Bankart repair to further improve the surgical accuracy and clinical efficacy. In particular, the application of single needle-assisted outside-in remplissage technique and Bankart repair is introduced in detail.
