Bridging self-reinforcing double-row rotator cuff repair: we really are doing better.

چکیده
Single-row versus double-row repair of rotator cuff tears is currently a controversial topic. In this Level V article, we articulate why we believe that second-generation double-row repair techniques, which use bridging sutures to link the 2 rows of suture anchors together in a self-reinforcing manner, are producing superior clinical and biomechanical results.

Arthroscopic Double-Row Transosseous Equivalent Rotator Cuff Repair with a Knotless Self-Reinforcing Technique
BACKGROUND Rotator cuff tears are a significant cause of shoulder morbidity. Surgical techniques for repair have evolved to optimize the biologic and mechanical variables critical to tendon healing. Double-row repairs have demonstrated superior biomechanical advantages to a single-row. METHODS The preferred technique for rotator cuff repair of the senior author was reviewed and described in a...

Background: Recurrence rate of rotator cuff tears is still high despite the improvements of surgical techniques, materials used and a better knowledge of the healing process of the rotator cuff tendons. Large to massive rotator cuff tears are particularly associated with a high failure rate, especially in elderly. Augmentation of rotator cuff repairs with extracellular matrix or synthetic patc...

CONTEXT Double-row rotator cuff repair methods have improved biomechanical performance when compared with single-row repairs. OBJECTIVE To review clinical outcomes of single-row versus double-row rotator cuff repair with the hypothesis that double-row rotator cuff repair will result in better clinical and radiographic outcomes. DATA SOURCES Published literature from January 1980 to April 20...
متن کاملSingle-Versus Double-Row Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair in Massive Tears
BACKGROUND It is a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons to treat massive rotator cuff tears. The optimal management of massive rotator cuff tears remains controversial. Therefore, the goal of this study was to compare arthroscopic single- versus double-row rotator cuff repair with a larger sample size. MATERIAL AND METHODS Of the subjects with massive rotator cuff tears, 146 were treated using ...
