Simple “Door-Locking” Technique Using One Single-Row Anchor for Repairing Large Bony Bankart Lesions

Abstract

Large bony Bankart injuries are typically stabilized using screws or plates or multiple anchors. Here, the “door-locking” technique, using a single-row anchor, can provide effective fixation for massive bony Bankart injuries. This technique offers several advantages over open fixation surgery or other techniques that use more than 2 suture anchors, including simpler surgical procedures, lower medical costs, and satisfactory clinical outcomes.
