Bankart and SLAP solutions
The labrum lines the glenoid, creating a rim that deepens the glenoid cavity and aids in keeping the humeral head in the joint. Labral tears are commonly associated with dislocation of the shoulder. These tears are referred to as Bankart lesions and indicate a tear at the anterior to inferior portion of the labrum. A Reverse Bankart lesion refers to a posterior to inferior tear of the labrum. A SLAP tear is a tear of the superior portion of the labrum.
Labral tears can be treated with an arthroscopic repair that involves securing the labrum back to the glenoid and, if necessary, tightening the joint capsule. CONMED offers multiple anchor material options to complete these procedures.
