Arthroscopic Low-Profile Knotless Repair of SLAP Tears With Suture Tape.

ABSTRACT: SLAP tears have been a controversial topic in shoulder surgery for decades. The indications for repair of SLAP tears, as well as the methods of repair, have undergone a recent evolution. The use of intra-articular knots for SLAP repair has fallen out of favor because of potential abrasive damage to the rotator cuff and glenohumeral articular cartilage due to knot migration and prominence. In response to this potential iatrogenic injury, arthroscopic techniques have undergone an evolution using advanced techniques with low-profile knotless repairs. We describe our preferred low-profile knotless technique for SLAP repair using LabralTape (Arthrex) in a horizontal mattress configuration.

Rotator Cuff Sparing Arthroscopic SLAP Repair With Knotless All-Suture Anchors.

Project description:Arthroscopic repair of SLAP tears is a common shoulder procedure, especially in overhead athletes. Repair techniques have evolved over the last 20 years, and the optimal technique remains elusive. In many cases, a transrotator cuff portal placed lateral to the acromion is used to access the superior glenoid. However, violating the rotator cuff is not desirable in an overhead athlete, and this approach can be associated with an increased risk of postoperative morbidity. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred surgical technique with a rotator cuff-sparing approach for arthroscopic SLAP repair with all-suture anchors.

Knotless Arthroscopic Repair of Subscapularis Tendon Tears Using Looped Suture.

Project description:Subscapularis tendon tears present a technical challenge because both diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment can be difficult. One difficulty is the limited visualization and working space of the anterior shoulder. Although most tears of the subscapularis are partial- or full-thickness tears of the upper third of the tendon, occasionally, larger or more retracted tears are encountered. Various techniques have been developed to treat a wide variety of tear patterns. We present a simple technique using a looped suture that remains easy to use in the limited working space of the anterior shoulder; can be easily modified to accommodate a broad spectrum of subscapularis pathology, from partial to full and retracted tears; and uses familiar viewing and working portals. This technique creates a single-row, knotless repair. Traction on the superior suture improves visualization and ease of passing more inferior sutures. Risks include unintentional over-tensioning of the repair and medialization of the femoral footprint, which can be avoided with appropriate exposure and arm positioning during repair. Postoperative care includes restriction of external rotation for 3 to 6 weeks and strengthening at 3 months.

Arthroscopic Repair of Type II SLAP Tears Using Suture Anchor Technique.

Project description:Arthroscopic SLAP tear repair has become an increasingly used treatment for patients presenting with symptomatic SLAP tears after failed nonoperative management. Debridement, SLAP repair, and open or arthroscopic biceps tenodesis or tenotomy have been used for the treatment of SLAP tears. Various techniques for repair have been described, and furthermore, there is a high incidence of concomitant pathology of the shoulder. Repair remains an excellent option in isolated SLAP tears amenable to repair, with excellent outcomes in well-indicated patients. We present a method for repairing a SLAP tear using standard suture anchor fixation, anterior and posterior portals, and an accessory portal of Wilmington. Adequate labral repair can be achieved with this technique in patients with no concomitant biceps pathology. This report highlights this technique for SLAP repair in patients with isolated symptomatic SLAP tears that have failed conservative management.

Quadriceps Tendon Repair Using Knotless Anchors and Suture Tape.

Project description:Repair of a torn quadriceps tendon is necessary to restore the extensor mechanism of the knee. Traditional repair involves transosseous sutures tied over bone bridges on the inferior pole of the patella. Suture anchor repair has been shown to be stronger than transosseous repair and facilitates a smaller incision. Suture tape can improve the strength of the suture-tendon interface, and when combined with knotless anchors, leads to a stronger repair construct than even traditional suture anchors and surgeon-tied knots. Here we describe our technique of quadriceps tendon repair using suture tape and knotless anchors.

Arthroscopic Knotless, Tensionable All-Suture Anchor Bankart Repair.

Project description:Surgical management for glenohumeral instability has advanced to provide stronger fixation and to be less invasive. Arthroscopic suture anchor repair has been the gold standard for isolated capsulolabral tears over the years. Despite the ability of the solid suture anchors to handle physiologic load, they can present challenges such as chondral damage due to anchor size and imperfect angulation, osteolysis, anchor breakage, revision drilling, difficulty of revision surgery with accompanied bone loss, and compromised postoperative magnetic resonance imaging quality. Recently, knotless all-suture anchors have been introduced as a technique to overcome these challenges. These anchors lack a rigid component and can be placed in a tunnel of smaller diameter, thereby allowing for maintenance of glenoid bone stock. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred surgical technique with a minimally invasive approach for the fixation of capsulolabral tears using a knotless all-suture anchor construct.

Arthroscopic Knotless Separate Layer Transosseous Equivalent Repair of Delaminated Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Delamination of rotator cuff tears presents a challenge for surgeons. Recognizing and repairing such a complex tear pattern often require innovative approaches to achieve an anatomic restoration of footprint. In this Technical Note, we described our preferred method that anatomically repairs both layers of delaminated rotator cuff tear separately in a knotless transosseous equivalent technique. Two sutures are placed to the articular layer in a cinch stitch configuration. Then, closed-loop end sutures are passed through both layers while keeping the closed-loop end at the working portal. The free ends of cinch stitches are loaded to anchors with a preloaded fiber tape loop, which is placed to the medial row while approximating the articular layer onto its footprint. Fiber tapes are then shuttled through both layers of tendon with the help of a previously placed closed-loop suture. Finally, the lateral row anchors are placed while fiber tapes are tensioned in a cross-bridge configuration. We believe that this technique may facilitate uneventful healing of delaminated rotator cuffs by providing the biomechanical properties of transosseous equivalent repair.

Arthroscopic Knotless, Double-Row, Extended Linked Repair for Massive Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:The management of massive rotator cuff tears remains a challenge for physicians, with failure rates being higher when compared with smaller tears. Many surgical treatment options exist including debridement with biceps tenodesis, complete repair, partial repair, repair with augmentation devices, superior capsule reconstruction, tendon transfer, and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. The purpose of this article is to describe our preferred surgical technique for a complete arthroscopic repair using an extended linked, knotless, double-row construct.

Arthroscopic Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Repair with Centralization Using Knotless Suture Anchors.

Project description:Medial meniscus posterior root tears can lead to rapid progression of knee arthritis because of loss of the stress distribution function of the meniscus. Medial meniscus root repair can restore stress distribution and improve clinical outcome. In cases of medial meniscus root tears with meniscal extrusion, centralization may help reduce extrusion and protect the root repair. Presented here is a technique for transtibial medial meniscus root repair with centralization using knotless suture anchors, building on previously developed techniques.
