Arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) is one of the common procedures for recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder. This study was conducted to verify the clinical results after ABR. Twenty-seven patients (20 males and 7 females) who underwent ABR were included. The mean age at the time of surgery was 27.8 years (range : 14 to 56 years). The mean follow-up period was 12.6 months (range : 6 to 24 months). The preoperative and postoperative SIS score, restriction of external rotation of the shoulder with the arm at the side (ER1) and at 90° of abduction (ER2), postoperative X-ray, and the rate of recurrence were evaluated. The postoperative SIS score was improved to 93.1 points from 60.9 points. The restriction of ER1 and ER2 was 5.6° and 11°, respectively. Osteoarthritic changes were found in two cases postoperatively. Enlargement of the anchor holes was found in four cases. The recurrence rate was 7.1%. ABR was a good procedure for treatment of anterior instability of the shoulder. However, care should be exercised with regard to OA changes or enlargement of the anchor holes.
