Purpose: In the traumatic anterior shoulder instability, the laxity of joint capsule and ligament is frequently demonstrated. Although a arthroscopic procedure to address anterior instability with joint capsular redundancy have generally provided good results, its recurrence rate is higher than open procedure. By reducing the capsular redundancy, thermal shrinkage is likely to improve the outcome of arthroscopic anterior stabilization. The objective of this study was to evaluate additional thermal capsular shrinkage as a treatment of joint capsular redundancy in anterior shoulder instability. Materials and Methods: From March 1999 to June 2000, 25 shoulders of 23 patients of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with shrinkage procedure. The mean follow up was 29 months and average age at the time of operation was 26 years. Of these patients, 20 were male and 3 were female who had been experienced the average 8 times of dislocation before operation. Thermal shrinkage alone without Bankart repair was performed in two cases who did not have Bankart lesion. The clinical result was evaluated in according to Modified Rowe Score. Results: The Modified Rowe Score was improved from preoperative 35 points to postoperative 88 points. None of cases showed recurrence of dislocation. But, in two cases, temporary sensory hypesthesia of the axillary nerve was developed and in two cases of postoperative stiffness, arthroscopic capsular release and brisement were performed. Conclusion: Additional capsular shrinkage in arthroscopic technique to address recurrent anterior shoulder instability could treat effectively the capsular redundancy.

목적: 야구 선수에서 발생한 견관절 내부 후방 충돌에 대해 관절경 소견 및 치료 결과를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 내부 후방 충돌로 진단하였던 5예를 대상으로 평균 15개월 추시하였다. 전 예에서 후기 거상기에 견관절 후방에 동통을 호소하였고, 외전 $120^{\circ}$에서 과수평-외전을 추가한 재위 검사상 전 예에서 양성을 보였다. 관절경하에 파열된 후방 관절와 순이나 SLAP 병변은 봉합하였고 회전근 개는 변연 절제하였으며 전방 관절낭 인대는 3예에서 관절낭 중첩술, 2예에서 관절낭 열 수축술을 시행하였다. 결과는 동통, 운동 범위, 운동 복귀 수준 등을 조사하였다. 결과: 관절경 소견상 전 예에서 후상방 관절와 순의 fraying이 있었고 2예에서는 후상방 관절와 순의 flap 파열, 1예에서는 제2형 SLAP 병변이 동반되었다. 전 예에서 극상근 건에 fraying이 관찰되었고 1예에서는 부분 파열을 보였다. 또한 전 예에서 $90^{\circ}{\sim}120^{\circ}$ 외전 및 외회전 상태에서 관절와 순에 회전근 개가 충돌하는 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 결과는 투구 시 전 예에서 동통이나 불안감은 없었으며, 평균 활동력은 이환 전의 활동력에 비해 평균 88% ($80{\sim}100%$)로 회복되었다. 결론: 내부 후방 충돌의 확진은 관절경 검사를 통해 가능할 것으로 사료되었으며, 내부 충돌의 원인이 되는 전방 미세 불안정성과 후방 관절낭 구축에 대해 전방 관절낭 중첩술이나 수축술 및 후방 관절낭 신연 운동은 비교적 만족스러운 결과를 보였다.

Purpose: This study reports the clinical results of the arthroscopic Bankart repair in traumatic anterior instability of the shoulder with bio-knotless anchor. Materials and Methods: 21 cases of 21 patients (20 male and 1 female) were included in this study. The average age was 24.8 years old and the period from the first injury to operation was average 37.2 months. All cases had Bankart lesion and 12 cases had Hill-Sachs' lesion. The SLAP lesion was associated in 6 cases. Preoperative Rowe score was average 29.1. Arthroscopic Bankart repair with bio-knotless anchor were performed in all cases; 3 anchors at 3, 4, 5 O'clock position of the glenoid were used in 11 cases and 2 anchors at 4, 5 O'clock position were used in 10 cases. All the associated SLAP lesions were repaired arthroscopically with bio-knotless anchor. Thermal capsular shrinkage at the anterior and inferior shoulder capsule after the Bankart repair was performed in 3 cases. The average follow up period was 20.2 months. Results: The Rowe score improved to 92.8, excellent in 17 cases and good in 4 cases, at last follow up period and 20 cases had full range of motion of the shoulder. 1 case had mild limited range of motion of the shoulder (150 degrees in flexion, 60 degrees in external rotation and T12 level in internal rotation) without any problem in normal activity. The arthroscopic revision surgery of the shoulder was performed in 1 case because of multiple traumatic injuries of the shoulder with pain postoperatively. Conclusion: Arthroscopic Bankart repair with bio-knotless anchor in traumatic anterior shoulder instability is one of the good methods because of the good clinical results.
