Interposition Grafting Using Fascia Lata Autograft for Failed Rotator Cuff Repairs

Arthroscopy Techniques
Massive rotator cuff tears are a huge challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, as the patients may be in need of multiple operations, even including reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Superimposition of Rotator Cuff Repair for Massive Rotator Cuff Tear

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017
Massive rotator cuff tears are particularly challenging to treat and severely limit the function of the shoulder. Compared with a small rotator cuff tear, massive tears are more unpredictable and usually present with low tendon quality.

Correlation between superior humeral head migration and proximal long head of biceps tendon pathology in patients with and without rotator cuff tears using magnetic resonance imaging and radiography

JSES International, 2022
Background: The biomechanical role of the proximal long head of the biceps tendon (PLHB) in glenohumeral joint stability remains controversial. This retrospective study aims to correlate between humeral head migration and PLHB pathology in patients with ...

Arthroscopic Patch Bridging Using Fascia Lata for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
We describe an arthroscopic technique for irreparable rotator cuff tears using patch bridging reconstruction with fascia lata autograft. Compared with conventional rotator cuff repair, this technique reconstitutes the rotator cuff as a dynamic structure,
