Summary

48 patients with massive rotator cuff tears were treated with a standardized five step technique of arthroscopic guided mini-open tranosseous repair with bursal augmentation. Their follow up is noted

Conditions

  • Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Interventions

PROCEDURE

arthroscopic assisted mini-open 5 step repair

First step Identifying the tear size , quality and if reducible on the foot print . minimal removal of the bursa and pulling of the tendon with a grasper to reach the foot print area with gentle mobilization of the tendon . Step two Acromioplasty Using a probe, the LHBT was palpated and mobilized, looking for any signs of degeneration and fraying or instability . The LHBT was inspected either through the tear by the subacrominal portal or through the glenohumeral portal . Step three Antero-lateral mini-open approach was used through a longitudinal 4 cm skin incision Step four Transosseous repair using the giant needle was used. 3 to 4 number two fiber wire sutures was passed equidistance through the tendon Step five The subarominal bursa was used for biological augmentation of the repair
