This critical analysis review synthesizes techniques, evidence, and outcomes for arthroscopic repair of anterior/inferior, superior (SLAP), and posterior labral tears. It frames patient selection factors, glenoid bone loss thresholds, and age cutoffs that guide operative decisions. Evidence grades and named classifications are reviewed to structure treatment recommendations.
