Abstract:
Massive irreparable rotator cuff tears in the younger, active patient can be one of the most challenging pathologies to treat in shoulder surgery. Over the last few years, the superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) technique, which has shown favorable initial clinical results, has emerged as a promising new technique that aims to restore glenohumeral mechanics and improve patient function. SCR can be technically challenging, and improvements have been made consistently to the technique. In this Technical Note, we present our knotless technique of glenoid fixation using push-in anchors and suture tapes. We believe that our procedure offers an improvement to current SCR techniques.
