Summary

The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of arthroscopic debridement and repair for Ellman grade II bursal-side partial-thickness rotator cuff tears.The hypothesis was that there would be no difference in prognosis between arthroscopic debridement and repair.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tears

Interventions

PROCEDURE

arthroscopic debridement

For the arthroscopic debridement, only stump refreshing and surrounding soft tissue cleaning were performed.

PROCEDURE

arthroscopic repair

For the arthroscopic repair, we converted partial tears into full-thickness tears and sutured them.
