The aims of this study were to validate the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) thresholds for Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), Rowe score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores following arthroscopic Bankart repair, and to identify preoperative threshold values of these scores that could predict the achievement of MCID and PASS. A retrospective review was conducted on 131 consecutive patients with anterior shoulder instability who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair between January 2020 and January 2023. Inclusion criteria required at least one episode of shoulder instability and a minimum follow-up period of 12 months. Preoperative and one-year postoperative scores were assessed. MCID and PASS were estimated using distribution-based and anchor-based methods, respectively. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis determined preoperative patient-reported outcome measure thresholds predictive of achieving MCID and PASS.Aims
Methods
The factors that predispose to recurrent instability and revision
stabilization procedures after arthroscopic Bankart repair for anterior
glenohumeral instability remain unclear. We sought to determine
the rate and risk factors associated with ongoing instability in
patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair for instability
of the shoulder. We used the Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System
(SPARCS) database to identify patients with a diagnosis of anterior
instability of the shoulder undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair
between 2003 and 2011. Patients were followed for a minimum of three
years. Baseline demographics and subsequent further surgery to the ipsilateral
shoulder were analyzed. Multivariate analysis was used to identify
independent risk factors for recurrent instability.Aims
Materials and Methods
A variety of operative techniques have been described as under
the term ‘Bristow-Latarjet’ procedure. This review aims to define
the original procedure, and compare the variation in techniques
described in the literature, assessing any effect on clinical outcomes. A systematic review of 24 studies was performed to compare specific
steps of the technique (coracoid osteotomy site, subscapularis approach,
orientation and position of coracoid graft fixation and fixation
method, additional labral and capsular repair) and detect any effect
this variability had on outcomes.Objectives
