Description

George Matta and colleagues describe an arthroscopic technique for fixing bony Bankart shoulder lesions using a single row of knotless anchors. Their 2026 technical article addresses fractures of the shoulder socket rim after traumatic dislocation.

Bony lesions raise recurrence risk and progressive socket bone loss compared with soft-tissue injuries alone. The single-row method suits reducible fragments covering a small to moderate share of the socket surface. Surgery proceeds through standard keyhole portals with the patient seated upright. Surgeons free the tissue and bone fragment, prepare a bleeding bone bed, then fix from bottom to top. Larger or irreducible defects need open fixation or bone augmentation instead.
