Pearls and Pitfalls of the Surgical Technique

Pearls	Pitfalls
• Use spinal needles to temporarily reduce the labrum in order to facilitate capsular shift. • Begin the repair inferiorly and work superiorly. • Be prepared to work anteriorly and posteriorly in a back-and = forth fashion to ensure equal capsular tension.	• It can be difficult to manage this type of global labral tear with malreduction of the labrum. • Suture passage around the bony Bankart portion anteriorly. • Multiple steps are required with portal switching from anterior to posterior in order to check the labrum-capsular tension with repair.
