Evaluation of Factors Affecting Outcomes in Arthroscopic Bankart Repair

Objective: This study aims to investigate the factors that affect the functional outcomes of patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair. Materials and Methods: We evaluated patients undergoing Bankart lesion repair in this study, which involved a total of 68 patients. For each patient, we identified the number of dislocations, Constant scores, number of sutures, and arthroscopic classification (Type 1 to 5). Results: The postoperative Constant scores of patients with more than one preoperative dislocation were statistically lower than those of patients with only one dislocation (p=0.043). The ABC Type 1 group exhibited significantly better postoperative scores compared to patients in the Type 2 and Type 3 groups (p=0.001; p=0.006). The postoperative Constant scores of patients with [greater than or equal to]3 anchor sutures were determined to be statistically higher than those with
