Abstract
Determining the optimal surgical approach for recurrent anterior shoulder instability remains contentious, often guided more by clinician familiarity than comparative data. This meta-analysis assessed outcomes of arthroscopic Bankart repair versus the Latarjet procedure. A thorough search of CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Scopus (up to June 2022) was performed. For continuous outcomes such as operative time and Rowe scores, mean differences (MDs) were calculated, while categorical variables like recurrence and complications were summarized as risk ratios (RRs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). From five eligible cohort studies involving 3145 patients, Bankart repair was associated with elevated redislocation (RR = 3.74, CI: 1.94–7.22) and recurrence risks (RR = 3.09, CI: 1.96–4.87). Conversely, it had a lower infection rate (RR = 0.14, CI: 0.05–0.42) and yielded reduced Rowe scores (MD = −7.94, CI: −13.00 to −2.87). Revision and hematoma incidence showed no meaningful differences. These findings suggest that while Latarjet offers improved stability and function, Bankart repair is linked to fewer infections. Both methods were similar in terms of revision and hematoma outcomes.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Orthopaedics aims to be a leading journal in orthopaedics and contribute towards the improvement of quality of orthopedic health care. The journal publishes original research work and review articles related to different aspects of orthopaedics including Arthroplasty, Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, Trauma, Spine and Spinal deformities, Pediatric orthopaedics, limb reconstruction procedures, hand surgery, and orthopaedic oncology. It also publishes articles on continuing education, health-related information, case reports and letters to the editor. It is requested to note that the journal has an international readership and all submissions should be aimed at specifying something about the setting in which the work was conducted. Authors must also provide any specific reasons for the research and also provide an elaborate description of the results.
