Key result
The arthroscopic Bankart procedure significantly reduced hospital stay (1.1 vs 3.1 days, p<0.001) and time lost from work compared with the open technique for anterior shoulder instability.
Why the study?
Does the arthroscopic Bankart procedure reduce operative time and perioperative morbidity compared to the open Bankart procedure in patients with anterior shoulder instability?

Does the arthroscopic Bankart procedure reduce operative time and perioperative morbidity compared to the open Bankart procedure in patients with anterior shoulder instability?
Absolute Event Rate: 1.1% vs 3.1%
p-value: p=< 0.001
The arthroscopic Bankart procedure offers significant improvements in operative time, perioperative morbidity, and complications compared with the open technique for anterior shoulder instability.
Green et al. (1993) conducted a cohort in Anterior shoulder instability (n=38). Arthroscopic Bankart procedure vs. Open Bankart procedure was evaluated on Hospital stay (days) (p=< 0.001). The arthroscopic Bankart procedure significantly reduced hospital stay (1.1 vs 3.1 days, p<0.001) and time lost from work compared with the open technique for anterior shoulder instability.
