What is Bankart Repair?
Bankart repair is a surgical procedure used to correct shoulder instability caused by repeated dislocations. It involves reattaching and tightening the torn labrum and ligaments in the shoulder joint, which are crucial for maintaining stability. Bankart lesions commonly occur when the shoulder is dislocated, causing the ligaments to tear away from the socket. This procedure helps restore stability, prevent future dislocations, and allow patients to return to normal activities with confidence.
