Usefulness of the STATAK in a Bankart Repair and Modified Bristow Procedure for Recurrent Anterior Dislocation of the Glenohumeral Joint. by KIMURA Akihiko, OKAMURA Kenji, FUKUSHIMA Sunao, NAGAMORI Masasi, AOKI Mitsuhiro, USUI Masamichi, and ISHII Seiichi Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Sapporo Medical University HOTTA Tomonobu Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Otaru Hokusei Hospital To investigate whether STATAK is useful in Bankart repair&modified Bristow procedure Forty patients with recurrent anterior dislocation with severe bone defects of the anterinferior glenoid border underwent surgery by B&B with STATAK (group S). The 43 patients who underwent surgery with a conventional bone tunnel suture were the control group (group B). We investigated the clinical results by using the Rowe's scoring system and operation time of both groups and the failure of STATAK insertion. The average of Rowe's score was 92.8 in group S, and 92.5 in group B, and there was no significant difference in either group. The average of operation time including arthroscopic examination was shorter by about five minutes in group S than in group B. The failure ratio of STATAK insertion was 6.3% of all 128 anchors. The modes of failure were four anchor pullouts, one anchor cut out, and three suture cutouts. Under accurate management a STATAK insertion will be useful in B&B for recurrent anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint with severe bone defect of the anteroinferior glenoid bo rder.
