Popis: To investigate the curative effect of arthroscopic glenoid labrum repair by biodegradable anchor fixation for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.Twenty-one patients of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation with the average UCLA function score of 22.3 ± 4.1 were treated with arthroscopic glenoid labrum repair by biodegradable anchor fixation. The shoulder was fixed by shoulder-elbow elastic band for 4-6 weeks and canonical exercise of shoulder joint was taken postoperatively.The patients were followed up for 3-18(mean 8) months; and the average UCLA score was 32.3 ± 2.6 postoperatively. The excellent results (34-35) were obtained in 11 patients, good (28-33) in 7 patients and fair (21-27) in 3 patients. The activity of shoulder joint was normal in all patients with an excellent subjective degree of satisfaction.Arthroscopic glenoid labrum repair by anchor fixation for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation has the advantages of less invasiveness, simpler procedure, reliable fixation, less complications and rapid functional recovery.
