All Knot-less Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

ABSTRACT: Irreparable rotator cuff tears are a complicated problem, and current treatment options include nonoperative rehabilitation, debridement with or without a biceps tenotomy, tuberoplasty, partial rotator cuff repair, patch augmentation, biodegradable spacers, tendon transfer, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction is a more recent technique that is gaining popularity for use in irreparable rotator cuff tears. However, this surgery can be technically complicated. The purpose of this technique is to increase reproducibility and simplify a complicated procedure by addressing the current challenges of previous techniques.

The "Pull-Over" Technique for Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:The management of irreparable rotator cuff tears is a difficult problem to deal with. The options include nonoperative route with anterior deltoid exercises, debridement with or without long head of biceps tenotomy, partial rotator cuff repair, tuberoplasty, muscle transfer, patch augmentation, biodegradable spacers, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. None of these options are without their limitations. In recent years, arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction has gained popularity as an alternative technique to address irreparable rotator cuff tears. Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction, however, is technically difficult. The purpose of this technical note is to describe a simple and reproducible technique for this procedure that addresses some of the challenges involved.

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Biceps Autograft: Snake Technique.

Project description:Many options have been developed to treat irreparable massive cuff tears. Superior capsular reconstruction has been reported as one of the treatment options for relatively young patients with irreparable massive cuff tear. However, this original technique has a disadvantage of requiring a tensor facia lata autograft. It requires another incision at the lateral thigh and can be a cause of thigh pain. This article describes our modified technique for arthroscopic superior capsule reconstruction using the biceps autograft to preserve the long head of the biceps tendon anchors to the glenoid labrum (the snake technique).

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Massive Irreparable Rotator Cuff Repair.

Project description:We have been performing arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) with acellular dermal allograft for almost 2 years. Our techniques are based on Mihata's original concept for SCR, in which he used fascia lata autograft. In this report, we describe our standard arthroscopic technique as well as 2 variations of a "zip-line" technique, which we have found particularly useful for large dermal allografts (grafts that are ?40 mm in any dimension).

A Lasso-Loop Traction Technique for Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction.

Project description:Irreparable rotator cuff tears (RCTs) cause shoulder pain and disfunction. Management of RCT patients has classically been difficult due to few treatment options. Since Mihata et al. in 2013 introduced the superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) technique as a treatment option, it has become widespread among surgeons, especially for young active patients in whom reverse shoulder arthroplasty is not recommended. With SCR, a reduced humeral head can be maintained and superior displacement is avoided, improving shoulder pain and restoring active shoulder motion. A variety of grafts may be used, but the surgery can be technically complicated. An arthroscopic lasso-loop traction technique for SCR is described here, which simplifies graft shoulder reduction by traction from the anteromedial and posteromedial portals.

Arthroscopic Single-Row Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears are challenging to manage. Often, these tears are not amenable to primary repair and necessitate additional treatment options. This is especially true in patients with absent glenohumeral arthritis in the setting of a massive, irreparable rotator cuff tear. Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR), originally described by Mihata using a fascia lata autograft, has grown in popularity for the treatment of irreparable rotator cuff tears as a salvage option with good clinical outcomes. More recently, SCR techniques have been described using dermal allograft. Biomechanical studies and reported clinical series show promising results, with favorable postoperative clinical outcomes. The procedure, however, may be technically challenging, especially when performed using an all-arthroscopic technique. This article describes an all-arthroscopic technique using a predetermined graft size, unique medial fixation to ease graft passage, and knotless single-row lateral fixation to optimize suture management and efficiency.

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction for Treatment of Massive Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Massive irreparable rotator cuff tears have been troublesome entities to treat, especially in younger patients. Few good options exist, leaving most patients in recent years receiving a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Reverse shoulder arthroplasty carries serious risks, a limited lifespan, and no other viable options should it fail. Recent biomechanical studies have shown that the superior capsule is critical to containing the glenohumeral joint reduced, allowing the larger muscles like the deltoid and pectoralis major to function properly. The superior capsular reconstruction is an anatomic reconstruction of the superior capsule to restore the normal restraint to superior translation that occurs with a deficient rotator cuff. The technique described in this article is an arthroscopic reconstruction of the superior capsule with dermal allograft.

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction Using "Sandwich" Patch Technique for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:The technique of superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using fascia lata autograft, described by Mihata et al. in 2012, has been an acceptable and effective method for treating irreparable massive rotator cuff tears, especially in cases with severe fatty infiltration and tendon retraction. After the SCR procedure of Mihata et al., it was found that some graft failure occurred with thinning and elongation during the follow-up time, which was called graft "creep." To avoid graft creep and reduce graft failure rates after SCR, we created an arthroscopic SCR technique with a "sandwich" patch augmented with polyethylene terephthalate scaffold interspaced between 2 folded layers of fascia lata autograft.

Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Acellular Dermal Allograft Using Push-In Anchors for Glenoid Fixation.

Project description:Massive irreparable rotator cuff tears in the younger, active patient can be one of the most challenging pathologies to treat in shoulder surgery. Over the last few years, the superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) technique, which has shown favorable initial clinical results, has emerged as a promising new technique that aims to restore glenohumeral mechanics and improve patient function. SCR can be technically challenging, and improvements have been made consistently to the technique. In this Technical Note, we present our knotless technique of glenoid fixation using push-in anchors and suture tapes. We believe that our procedure offers an improvement to current SCR techniques.

Arthroscopic partial Superior Capsular Reconstruction using the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon-Technique Description.

Project description:Superior capsule reconstruction is a valuable intervention for some patients who present symptomatic irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears. Superior capsule reconstruction techniques most commonly use either fascia lata autograft or dermal allograft. Both options have literature support but also present a few drawbacks such as donor site issues, potential allergic reactions, and high cost of the operation. The long head of biceps is a potential graft for rotator cuff tears and may be particularly useful in bridging the gap in irreparable massive rotator cuff tears, specifically as an alternative to more traditional superior capsular reconstruction. Long head of biceps transposition may offer unique and significant advantages over other techniques and can be an effective and valuable alternative in selected cases. The tendon's insertion into the glenoid is left intact, whereas laterally it is transferred to a more central humeral head position and sutured with anchors onto the footprint of the supraspinatus tendon acting as a superior static stabilizer of the shoulder joint. The purpose of this article is to propose a technical modification of superior capsular reconstruction using long head of the biceps tendon autograft.

Arthroscopic In Situ Superior Capsular Reconstruction Using the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon.

Project description:Large to massive rotator cuff tears are challenging to repair, although there are several options for dealing with them. Among them, superior capsular reconstruction was recently introduced as an effective procedure for retaining the static stability of the shoulder joint and preventing the progression to cuff tear arthropathy. The purpose of this technique-based article is to describe a surgical option, called arthroscopic in situ superior capsular reconstruction, for large to massive rotator cuff tears using the long head of the biceps tendon.
