What Happens in Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation?

When your shoulder dislocates (pops out of the joint), it often tears a piece of cartilage inside called the labrum — specifically the lower front part, known as a Bankart lesion.

If the labrum doesn’t heal properly, your shoulder can become unstable, leading to repeated dislocations — especially when you raise your arm or play sports.



What is a Bankart Lesion?
• It’s a tear in the front part of the labrum (the ring of cartilage around your shoulder socket).
• This tear weakens the socket, so the ball of the shoulder joint can slip out more easily.



How Does a Bankart Repair Help?

A Bankart repair is a surgery that fixes the torn labrum and tightens the loose shoulder joint.

Here’s what happens:
1. Arthroscopic surgery (minimally invasive, using small incisions and a camera).
2. The surgeon cleans the torn area and uses small anchors to reattach the labrum to the bone.
3. Sometimes, loose or stretched ligaments are tightened as well.

This surgery restores stability to the shoulder and helps prevent future dislocations.



After Surgery (Recovery)
• Sling for 3–6 weeks.
• Physical therapy starts slowly, then builds strength and range of motion.
• Return to sports: usually around 4–6 months (depends on the person and the sport).



Success Rate
• Very high — 80–95% success in preventing future dislocations, especially in young active people.
• The earlier the surgery is done after repeated dislocations, the better the long-term outcome.
