PurposeThe purpose of this study was to test the strength of a suture capsulorrhaphy repair versus a capsulolabral repair with knotless suture anchors in a cadaveric model with anteroinferior shoulder instability.MethodsFourteen cadaveric shoulders were tested with either a suture capsulorrhaphy to the intact labrum or a capsulolabral advancement using a knotless suture anchor into the glenoid. Specimens were translated with the shoulder in an abducted, externally rotated position to failure.ResultsThe capsulolabral advancement showed a significantly higher load to failure than did the suture capsulorrhaphy group (P = .030).ConclusionsCapsulolabral advancement with suture anchors may offer greater initial strength when compared with a suture capsulorrhaphy. In the setting of shoulder instability without evidence of a labral tear, the capsulolabral advancement technique may be considered biomechanically superior.Clinical RelevanceIn the setting of shoulder instability due to capsular insufficiency, the capsulolabral advancement may be considered biomechanically superior to a traditional suture capsulorrhaphy.
