Increased acromiohumeral distance in a double-row arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery compared to a single-row surgery after 12 months

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research Jun 27, 2021

Turan K, Cabuk H, Koroglu C, et al. - This study sought to correlate the effects of double- and single-row arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs (ARCR) on repair integrity (RI) and acromiohumeral distance (AHD). An observational study was conducted to distinguish 98 patients with degenerative rotator cuff tears treated with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair between 2016 and 2019. Researchers excluded 22 individuals with partial-thickness tears, 15 with correlated subscapularis or SLAP tears, 13 with massive tears, and 5 patients lost to follow-up; they enrolled 43 patients who had ARCR for full-thickness cuff tear and clinical, radiologic follow-up. Although, compared with single-row repairs, double-row repairs can maintain greater AHD in the clinical setting, this difference did not affect functional outcomes.Functional results are favourable if RI is achieved regardless of the surgical intervention.
