All-Arthroscopic Muscle Slide and Advancement Technique to Repair Massive Retracted Posterosuperior Rotator Cuff Tears.

ABSTRACT: Symptomatic massive posterosuperior rotator cuff tears without glenohumeral joint arthritis and chronic medial retraction often are deemed "irreparable." These patients often are treated with alternative joint-sparing procedures including superior capsular reconstruction or tendon transfer procedures. Open and arthroscopic-assisted muscle advancement techniques allow maximal lateral tendon mobilisation during rotator cuff repair. In this report, we present an all-arthroscopic technique of complete supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscle scapular detachment and advancement in retracted massive posterosuperior rotator cuff tears. This allows for an anatomical tendon footprint reduction and tension-free repair.

All-Arthroscopic Modified Rotator Interval Slide for Massive Anterosuperior Cuff Tears Using the Subdeltoid Space: Surgical Technique and Early Results.

Project description:BackgroundTraditional intra-articular arthroscopic repair techniques for massive anterosuperior rotator cuff tears are technically demanding and necessitate sacrifice of the rotator interval to enable visualization. An interval slide allows mobilization through release of the medial aspect of the rotator interval, while leaving the lateral, bridging fibers intact.Questions/purposesThe purpose of this study was to report a novel, arthroscopic, open-equivalent technique using the subdeltoid space to address these tears along with early clinical results.MethodsA retrospective review of prospectively collected data identified 11 consecutive arthroscopic massive anterosuperior rotator cuff repairs with a concomitant biceps tenodesis performed by the senior surgeon using a uniform technique. Outcome measures included range of motion, visual analog scale for pain, rotator cuff strength, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) outcome scale, and Short Form-12 (SF-12).ResultsAverage length of follow-up was 22.2 months (range 12.5-30.0 months). Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, ASES, and SF-12 all demonstrated significant improvement from pre-op to final follow-up from 6.2 to 0.9 (p < 0.05), 27.4 to 82.8 (p < 0.05), and 26.6 to 45.5 (p < 0.05) respectively. Average forward flexion improved from 145° to 160° (p < 0.05). Seven of the nine patients with a positive preoperative belly press had a negative test at final follow-up. Nine of the 10 patients with a positive lift off test demonstrated a negative test on final follow-up. Ninety-one percent reported they were satisfied with their outcome.ConclusionsThe described modified all-arthroscopic subdeltoid approach for anterosuperior cuff repairs enabled an open-equivalent interval slide technique that preserved the bridging lateral fibers of the rotator interval and demonstrated promising early-term clinical results.

Arthroscopic Partial Repair of Irreparable, Massive Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Several treatment options for chronic, massive rotator cuff tears exist, and they include debridement with possible biceps tenotomy or tenodesis, open or arthroscopic partial repair, muscle or tendon transfer, superior capsule reconstruction, synthetic patch augmentation, and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. The aim of this technique article is to describe our preferred surgical option for irreparable, massive rotator cuff tears with an irreparable supraspinatus, a reparable infraspinatus, and an intact or reparable subscapularis tendon.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Lower Trapezius Tendon Transfer for Massive Irreparable Posterosuperior Rotator Cuff Tears Using an Achilles Tendon-Bone Allograft.

Project description:The lower trapezius tendon (LTT) transfer has been described for the management of irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears. Here we describe our technique of an arthroscopic-assisted LTT transfer using an Achilles tendon-bone allograft. This technique allows for augmentation of the tendon transfer using an Achilles tendon allograft while also keeping the calcaneal bone insertion, which allows for added bony fixation into the humerus and also minimizing the risk of the "killer turn" phenomenon at the aperture of fixation.

Medialized Rip-Stop Convergence Technique for Retracted Rotator Cuff Tears

Project description:Attempts to restore the anatomical footprint during rotator cuff repair for retracted, relatively immobile tears can be difficult. In some cases, it can lead to excessive tension of the repair. Previous studies have noted improved clinical outcomes when repair tension is not excessive, and medialization of the anatomical footprint has been suggested as a technique that can help surgeons repair large, retracted tears without excessive tension and achieve improved clinical outcomes. Of note, excessive tension when restoring the rotator cuff tendon to the anatomical footprint is not limited to large, retracted tears. In some cases, restoring small- and medium-sized tears to the anatomical footprint also can lead to excessive tension. Therefore, it is not uncommon for the authors to employ some degree of footprint medialization even for repair of small- or medium-sized tears if repair to the anatomical footprint will lead to excess tension. The purpose of this article and video demonstration is to provide instruction for a reproducible rotator cuff technique using a medialized single-row rip-stop construct combined with convergence. Technique Video Video 1 An arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with a medialized rip-stop convergence technique is shown for a left shoulder in the beach-chair position, as viewed through a posterior portal and lateral portal with lateral subacromial viewing perspective. Techniques and advantages of medialization are demonstrated with emphasis on creating an opportunity to perform a double-row repair when one otherwise would not be feasible due to the entire footprint’s medial shift.

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.

Arthroscopic Acromiograft for Large-to-Massive Rotator Cuff Tears: A Rescue Technique for Restoring Shoulder Stability

Project description:A large-to-massive rotator cuff tear is a complicated disease for an orthopedic surgeon to get the best results and prevent complications like retears or progression to arthropathy. Although there are several surgical options for managing these tears, there is still no gold standard treatment. The key point in the solution would be preventing the upward migration of the humeral head to create a biomechanically stable joint to promote rotator cuff healing. In this article, we introduced a technique called an acromiograft, in which the allograft is attached to the undersurface of the acromion. Technique Video Video 1

Arthroscopic-Assisted Lower Trapezius Tendon Transfer for Massive Irreparable Posterior-Superior Rotator Cuff Tears: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Tendon transfer options to reconstruct a massive irreparable posterior-superior rotator cuff tear include latissimus dorsi, teres major, or lower trapezius transfer. We previously described the lower trapezius transfer using a 2-incision approach, which includes a medial incision to harvest the lower trapezius and lateral transacromial incision to expose the rotator cuff and then perform the transfer through a deep tunnel connecting these 2 sites. In this report, we describe an arthroscopic-assisted technique of lower trapezius transfer augmented with an Achilles tendon allograft to reconstruct an irreparable posterior-superior rotator cuff tear.

Arthroscopic Biological Augmentation for Massive Rotator Cuff Tears: The Biceps-Cuff-Bursa Composite Repair.

Project description:Surgical repair of massive and chronic rotator cuff tears is difficult due to tendon retraction and severe atrophy, and the resultant retear rate in the structurally weak tendons is high. Commercially available patches and bioinductive scaffolds have been used to provide strength and superior healing environment in partial and complete rotator cuff tears. Biological biceps autograft has been used for superior capsular reconstruction, and the subacromial bursa has been shown to have significant pluripotent stem cell potency for tendon healing. We describe our technique for combined use of the long biceps tendon (LBT) and vasculature-preserved subacromial bursa as autografts in rotator cuff repair augmentation. The technique involves obtaining a LBT graft of sufficient length using a "traction and tenodesis" technique. The subacromial bursa is mobilized as a continuous layer (vascular bursal duvet) by maintaining its medial and lateral vascularity. All-suture anchors are used to minimize the insertion apertures (3 mm) in tuberosity. The bursa is advanced laterally, and the mobilized cuff is repaired together as a biceps-cuff-bursa composite unit. Combined use of the biceps and bursa as biological autografts has the advantage of structural and regenerative augmentation, and the autografts are easily accessible without added cost.

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.
