Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Augmentation: Surgical Technique Using Bovine Collagen Bioinductive Implant.

ABSTRACT: Symptomatic partial-thickness rotator cuff tears and full-thickness tears with poor tissue quality often pose a dilemma for orthopaedic surgeons. Despite advances in repair techniques and fixation devices, retear rates remain high. Progression of partial-thickness tears has been noted to be over 50%, with remaining fibers seeing increased strain. Patch augmentation that induces a healing response while decreasing peak strain of adjacent tissue is becoming more popular among orthopaedic surgeons. Therefore, we present an all-arthroscopic technique guide for application of a Food and Drug Administration-approved bovine bioinductive patch (Rotation Medical, Plymouth, MN).

All-arthroscopic patch augmentation of a massive rotator cuff tear: surgical technique.

Project description:Surgical management of massive rotator cuff tears remains challenging, with failure rates ranging from 20% to 90%. Multiple different arthroscopic and open techniques have been described, but there is no current gold standard. Failure after rotator cuff repair is typically multifactorial; however, failure of tendon-footprint healing is often implicated. Patch augmentation has been described as a possible technique to augment the biology of rotator cuff repair in situations of compromised tendon quality and has shown promising short-term results. The purpose of this article is to describe our preferred surgical technique for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with patch augmentation.

Surgical Technique for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Augmentation With Human Acellular Dermal Matrix.

Project description:Arthroscopic repair is probably the gold standard for treating large rotator cuff tears. Although positive, the results of this type of intervention depend on many factors such as the size of the tear, the age of the patient, and the number of previous surgeries. To decrease the rate of recurrence, we propose a surgical technique for augmenting the repair using an acellular dermal matrix (ArthroFlex, LifeNet Health). Our technique allows the surgeon to initially suture the tear in a regular fashion without visual interference. Once the tear is repaired, the augmentation is performed in a simple, all-arthroscopic, reproducible, and safe way. Also, we do not use extra implants for the fixation of the graft, so it does not increase the cost of the procedure (leaving aside the cost of the matrix itself).

Arthroscopic Hip Capsular Plication With Augmentation Using a Bioinductive Collagen Implant.

Project description:With advancements in arthroscopic techniques and instrumentation, hip arthroscopy has become an increasingly used technique to treat soft-tissue and osseous pathologies about the hip. Patient predisposition to labral and capsular injuries can present as femoroacetabular impingement or hip dysplasia, sometimes in combination. Capsular management continues to be a topic of debate, with capsular repair becoming the standard of care in most cases. Furthermore, in cases of borderline dysplasia and microinstability, considerations for not only capsular repair but with plication has shown significant clinical success. Although plication in this setting has shown promise, given a 20% failure rate, we suggest capsular augmentation to bolster the repair. We present a technique of capsular augmentation using a bioinductive collagen implant (Smith & Nephew) to improve the capsular integrity following repair and plication. The benefits of this implant are easy delivery through standard arthroscopic portals and secure fixation to the capsular tissue. These implants have a proven track record in the shoulder and serve as a scaffold for improved tissue quality, and their application in hip arthroscopy has potential by increasing the integrity of the capsular repair. Future studies are needed to address the clinical outcomes of this technique.

An augmentation suture technique for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

Project description:The double-row suture technique and the suture-bridge technique have been used for rotator cuff repair to decrease the occurrence of retears. However, when only the degenerated tendon end is sutured, the risk of retear remains. The augmentation suture technique is a new procedure that connects the intact medial tendon to the lateral greater tuberosity, and this approach may protect the initial repair site. The procedures for this technique are as follows: 2 sutures are placed through the medial intact tendon, the cuff tear is repaired by the single-row technique, 2 sutures are pulled laterally over the single-row repair site, and 2 sutures are fixed at the lateral greater tuberosity with a push-in-type anchor. This technique is simple and easy and does not require special equipment. Moreover, this approach can augment the single-row repair technique without creating high tension at the cuff end.

Management of Rotator Cuff Defects After Calcific Tendinopathy Debridement Using a Bioinductive Collagen Implant.

Project description:The management of rotator cuff defects after arthroscopic debridement for calcific tendinitis can be a challenge for physicians. To date, treatment options have included debridement alone, in situ repairs of the tendon, or full-thickness takedown and repair. Each option, however, has been fraught with its own pitfalls and limitations. We propose a technique for the management of rotator cuff defects through the application of a bioinductive collagen implant that may allow for rapid tissue incorporation and regeneration.

Arthroscopic Knotless Rotator Cuff Repair With Decellularized Dermal Allograft Augmentation: The "Canopy" Technique.

Project description:Repairability and clinical outcomes of full-thickness rotator cuff tears rely on tendon mobility, tissue quality, and subsequent tension on a repair. While repair of rotator cuff tears tend to yield excellent clinical results, poor tissue quality has been an important factor that has hampered successful outcomes. This Technical Note describes a double-row rotator cuff repair using a SpeedBridge configuration with dermal allograft "canopy" augmentation to bolster the repairable but thinned rotator cuff tissue. This technique employs a unique graft fixation strategy to simplify the procedure. This approach could provide surgeons with a great option when faced with mobile but thinned rotator cuff tissue.

The "Pull-Over" Technique for All Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair With Extracellular Matrix Augmentation.

Project description:Despite the vast improvement in techniques for arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery, repairs of massive and large tears remain an issue as they are associated with significantly high failure rates, particularly in the elderly population. As a result, there has been a focus of attention to improve rotator cuff repair healing rates. One of the strategies is augmentation of the repair with a patch. Arthroscopic augmentation is, however, technically demanding with challenges in introduction and stabilization of the patch. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a technique for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with augmentation, which offers additional advantages over previous techniques because it facilitates the passage of the patch as well as providing a more robust medial stabilization of the augment and therefore possibly a stronger construct.

Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair in a "Functional Biologic Augmentation" Technique to Treat Massive Atrophic Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Surgical treatment of patients with massive rotator cuff tears is unpredictable because of a low healing rate and high incidence of clinical failure. Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction has emerged as a promising technique in treating younger, active patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears. Superior capsular insufficiency has been theorized to be a factor in the higher failure rate for repairs of massive tears, and there have been proposals of superior capsular repair in addition to rotator cuff repair to facilitate better healing of massive rotator cuff tears. This article presents our technique of functional rotator cuff augmentation, which is concomitant superior capsular reconstruction with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, to treat massive, atrophic rotator cuff tears. This technique is used in patients with massive rotator cuff tears and superior capsular insufficiency.

Dual-camera technique for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

Project description:An all-arthroscopic rotator cuff repair demands a high level of technical skill and is associated with a steep learning curve. It is well accepted that small rotator cuff tears or partial tears can be more difficult than large or even massive tears to repair. Part of the reason is the difficulty in visualizing the tear, as well as important surrounding structures, during repair. To improve visibility during the repair process, we have introduced a second arthroscopic camera. Two cameras allow the surgeon to observe the rotator cuff from both the articular and bursal sides. We find this technique has merit in small or partial-thickness rotator cuff tears; however, there may be other applications.

Biological Augmentation With Subacromial Bursa in Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair.

Project description:Rotator cuff tears can be associated with significant shoulder dysfunction and pain. Despite improved surgical techniques and new materials for rotator cuff reconstruction, there is no significant reduction in the re-rupture rate. Innovative approaches for enhanced tendon healing are required. The potential of biologically optimized tendon integration has probably been insufficiently explored so far. The existing practice of debridement might eliminate repair tissue and a major source of cells and blood vessels necessary for tendon healing. Biological augmentation may be an option to improve the healing process. The subacromial bursa is a highly proliferative tissue with mesenchymal stem cells capable of differentiating into various cell lines and is easily accessible during rotator cuff repair. We describe the technique of bursal augmentation in arthroscopic double-row SutureBridge repair of a posterosuperior rotator cuff tear with the aim of improving tendon-to-bone healing.
