Abstract

We present a modified hybrid technique that is a combination of a transglenoid and suture anchor technique. Three-dimensional CT reconstruction is indicated for patients with bony fragments larger than 10 mm. First, a transglenoid technique is performed to reduce the bony fragment and then a suture anchor technique is performed to achieve a stable fixation. This combined technique is a useful arthroscopic procedure for the easy reduction and stable fixation of bony Bankart lesions.
