Say Goodbye to Repeated Shoulder Dislocations — Get Expert Arthroscopic Bankart Repair
If you are facing repeated shoulder dislocations, pain, or a sense of instability, it might be due to a Bankart lesion — a tear in the shoulder’s labrum.
At A1 Superspeciality Hospital, Dahisar, we offer advanced arthroscopic Bankart repair surgery to restore full shoulder stability, strength, and function — without open incisions.
Serving patients from Dahisar, Borivali, Kandivali, and Mira Road, our orthopedic surgeons specialize in minimally invasive shoulder repair.
What is a Bankart Lesion?
A Bankart lesion is a tear in the labrum — the cartilage rim around the shoulder socket (glenoid).
It usually happens after a shoulder dislocation, making the joint loose and prone to repeated dislocations.
Common causes:
- Sports injuries (football, cricket, wrestling)
- Falls
- Accidents
- Heavy lifting injuries
What is Bankart Repair Surgery?
Bankart repair is a surgical procedure to reattach the torn labrum back to the shoulder socket using special anchors and sutures, restoring stability and preventing future dislocations.
At A1 Hospital Dahisar, we perform Arthroscopic Bankart Repair —
a keyhole (minimal invasive) surgery that ensures faster healing and minimal scarring.
Symptoms Indicating the Need for Bankart Repair:
- Repeated shoulder dislocations
- Feeling of shoulder slipping out
- Persistent shoulder weakness
- Clicking or catching sensation in the shoulder
- Reduced range of motion
- Fear of lifting heavy objects or sports activity
How is Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Performed?
- Small incisions (ports) are made.
- A camera (arthroscope) is inserted to visualize inside the shoulder joint.

At A1 Hospital, we use bioabsorbable suture anchors for safe, strong fixation.
