SLAP and Bankart repairs reattach the torn labrum of the shoulder to the glenoid, usually arthroscopically with small suture anchors. Bankart repair is a common soft-tissue stabilisation for recurrent anterior instability without significant glenoid bone loss.
We supply MINI-VIM anchors in 2.8 to 3.5 mm sizes:
- MINI-VIM PK, knotless: PEEK anchor that avoids knot stacks.
- MINI-VIM PK: PEEK anchor, knotted.
- MINI-VIM titanium: self-drilling and suited to percutaneous delivery, for SLAP and subscapularis repairs.
Also known as: Labral repair
