Bankart Repair in Islamabad:

Bankart repair is a specialised surgical procedure designed to restore stability to a shoulder that has suffered from recurrent dislocations. The process focuses on repairing the torn labrum, the cartilage ring that keeps your shoulder joint secure. It is a minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery that not only prevents future dislocations but also helps you regain confidence in daily tasks, sports, and work activities without the constant worry of shoulder instability.

Causes of Shoulder Dislocation:

  • Outstretched arm or shoulder
  • Seizures and Electric Shocks
  • Sports Injuries
  • Laxity or weakness in the shoulders
  • Accidents 
  • Forceful Movements

Types of Shoulder Dislocations:

  • Anterior Dislocation:

This is the most common type, where the humerus head is displaced out of the socket. It commonly occurs due to a fall or an injury. 

  • Posterior Dislocation:

This is a disorder in which the head of the upper arm bone has moved backward out of the glenoid cavity. This type is not very common and is a result of a seizure or an electric shock.

  • Inferior Dislocation:

This is a rare type, also known as luxatio erecta, that occurs when the head of the humerus bone is displaced downward. It happens due to forcefully hyper-abducting the arm.

Goals of Bankart Repair Therapy:

The Bankart repair therapy objectives include;

  • Stabilizing the shoulder joint with enhanced motion and functionality.
  • Reduces the risk of future dislocations.
  • Reattachment of the torn labrum.
  • Provides greater strength. 
  • Alleviation of constant pain and unease. 
  • Securing internal structures like cartilage and tissues.

Results of Stabilization Surgery:

Typically, the approach of stabilizing the shoulder is a 2-hour-long invasive procedure that takes approximately 3-6 months to get back to high-impact activities. It provides gradual improvements with the help of proper rehab sessions for at least 3-4 months consecutively. The full recovery is achieved in 6-9 months.
