No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators evaluated the correlation between cutting-through at the greater tuberosity (GT) just medial to the lateral knotless anchor in arthroscopic suture-bridge rotator cuff repair and the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, hip and GT of the proximal humerus and to evaluate factors and clinical outcomes related to cutting-through at the GT.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tears

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Arthroscopic suture-bridge rotator cuff repair

Arthroscopic suture-bridge repair is a widely used and universal surgical method for symptomatic rotator cuff tear patients. It is arthroscopic surgery to reattach ruptured rotator cuff tendons to the original insertion (greater tuberosity) using medial and lateral row anchors.
