Abstract: ObjectiveTo evaluate the results of arthroscopic treatment of large and extensive rotator cuff injuries (RCI) that involved the supra and infraspinatus muscles using the suture bridge (SB) technique.MethodsBetween July 2010 and November 2014, 37 patients with RCI who were treated with SB technique were evaluated. The study included all patients with a minimum follow-up of 12 months who underwent primary surgery of the shoulder. Twenty-four patients were male and 13 were female. The mean age was 60 years (45–75… Show more

“… 3 More modern techniques, which have modified the concept of DR, such as the transosseous equivalent, are already being used. 4 The original DR fixation method has been extensively studied in the laboratory. Several studies 5 , 6 , 7 have demonstrated its biomechanical superiority when compared with the SR method.…”

“…In the traditional operation method, the layered repair of the rotator cuff is based on the initial internal and external clinical anatomical structure of the rotator cuff tendon, and its practical clinical significance needs to be further explored [6]. Full-thickness repair is the most commonly used operation method for small rotator cuff tears, as the operation is easy and has a clinical therapeutic effect [7][8][9]. However, with the further accumulation of clinical experience, we found that for large and medium-sized rotator cuff delamination tears, the rotator cuff articular layer is often difficult to reset during the operation, and the abovementioned operation methods are difficult.…”

“…4,5,[8][9][10][11] Previous studies indicate that factors such as the shape of the tear, preoperative anteroposterior (AP) size of the tear, fatty degeneration of the tendons, the tendon quality and age have been evaluated to decide whether the double-or single-row technique should be used for repair of the rotator cuff tear. 2,[12][13][14][15][16][17] However, the most important factor for selecting an appropriate suture technique for avoiding damage to the rotator cuff has not been established thus far. 1,3,4,7,[9][10][11]16,18 Th e double-row repair is recommended, particularly for tears greater than 3 cm.…”
