What are the Types of Shoulder Dislocation Surgery?

The method that is best suited for your shoulder dislocation often depends on the severity of the type of shoulder dislocation you have. After a thorough diagnosis, your orthopedist will be able to recommend a suitable treatment option for you. There are primarily 3 methods of shoulder arthroscopy:

  • Arthroscopic bankart surgery: A bankart shoulder repair surgery is a commonly performed surgical procedure that your orthopedic doctor may recommend in case of recurrent shoulder joint dislocations. In a bankart surgery, the surgeon reattaches the worn out ligaments to their normal place by making very small incisions around the shoulder region. The surgeon will insert a narrow tube attached with a small camera, called an arthroscope, into an incision and using a live feed, reattach the labrum to the glenoid bone. Once the procedure is complete, the surgeon will suture the labrum in place. The average cost of a bankart repair surgery in Chennai can range from Rs. 60,000 to Rs. 95,000. However, depending on various factors, the exact cost of surgery is likely to vary.
  • Capsular shift surgery: A capsular shift surgery is another procedure that your orthopedist may recommend when the joint capsule, which is the lining of the joint, becomes too large. In a capsular shift surgery, the surgeon uses arthroscopy procedure to tighten the capsule and its ligaments which are responsible to stabilize the shoulders. 
  • Arthroscopic labral repair: An arthroscopic labral repair is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is often recommended when there is a tear in the labrum which causes pain and makes the shoulder unstable. In an arthroscopic labral repair, the surgeon visualizes the torn labrum using an arthroscope that will be inserted through a small incision made in the shoulder region. Once a clear view is established, the surgeon will clear up any scar tissue and reattach the labrum to the bone and use special implants called suture anchors to permanently hold the labrum in place.

    Frequently asked Questions about Shoulder Dislocation Surgery

    Can a dislocated shoulder heal on its own?

    No, a dislocated shoulder cannot heal on its own unless the humerus is popped back in your orthopedic doctor. If a dislocated shoulder is left untreated or surgery is delayed, it is likely that the dislocated joint will continue to damage the surrounding tissue and ligaments.



    How long does it take to recover after a shoulder dislocation surgery?

    The exact time it takes to recover from a shoulder dislocation surgery differs from patient to patient but on an average, it takes about 12-16 weeks to fully recover from a dislocated shoulder. 



    What type of anesthesia is used for shoulder dislocation surgery?

    While usually, a shoulder dislocation surgery is carried out under general anesthesia, depending on your overall health, your orthopedic doctor may prefer using local anesthesia. The surgery will only begin once you are either asleep or under conscious sedation.



    How long does a shoulder dislocation surgery last?

    Depending on the method and complexity of surgery, the duration of your surgery is likely to differ. In most cases, a shoulder dislocation surgery lasts for 1-2 hours.
