This is a retrospective case series of the Neer modification of the open Bankart procedure, which adds a superoinferior capsular shift to labral reattachment. It asks whether this technique reduces recurrent instability, preserves external rotation, and limits arthritis in traumatic anteroinferior instability. 64 patients were followed for a median of 40 months.
The clinical takeaway is a decision rule about technique choice: when open and arthroscopic Bankart give equivalent recurrence rates, the added morbidity of open surgery is hard to justify.
The Neer modification was designed to fix a real biomechanical problem. Anteroinferior instability stretches the capsule vertically, so a superoinferior shift restores tension without the mediolateral shortening that limited external rotation in older repairs.
That design worked mechanically: external rotation loss was only 13 degrees and no shoulder reached end-stage arthropathy at short followup. But the 11% recurrence and 56% return-to-sport rates matched arthroscopy, so the open approach lost its advantage.
For boards, know the Samilson and Prieto staging (osteophyte size thresholds of 3 mm and 8 mm, with Stage 4 being joint-space loss) and remember Latarjet is the salvage for failed soft-tissue repair or significant glenoid bone loss.
