Abstract:Objectives:Single-point and double-point arthroscopic reconstruction techniques for acute osseous Bankart lesions have been described in the literature. We hypothesized that the double-point fixation technique (bony Bankart bridge) would provide superior fracture reduction and stability at time zero compared to the single-point technique in a cadaveric bony Bankart model.Methods:Testing was performed on 14 matched glenoid pairs with simulated bony Bankart fractures; the defect width was 25% of the glenoid diam… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
