Abstract
Like most surgical procedures, the results of arthroscopic Bankart repair can probably be improved by meticulous attention to surgical detail. Some of these aspects include the orientation of the suture holes in bone anchors to facilitate smooth gliding of the sutures. Using the outside strand as the post strand optimises soft tissue approximation to the glenoid especially when using a ratchet type of slip knot.
