Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair with and without Acromioplasty in the Treatment of Full-Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears
A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial
MacDonald, Peter MD, FRCSC1; McRae, Sheila MSc1; Leiter, Jeffrey MSc, PhD1; Mascarenhas, Randy MD1; Lapner, Peter MD, FRCSC2
Author Information
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery 93(21):p 1953-1960, November 2, 2011.

A

WORC and ASES scores improved significantly in each group over time (p < 0.001). There were no differences in WORC or ASES scores between the groups that had arthroscopic cuff repair with or without acromioplasty at any time point. There were no differences in scores on the basis of acromion type, nor were any interaction effects identified between group and acromion type. Four participants (9%) in the group that had arthroscopic cuff repair alone, one with a Type-2 and three with a Type-3 acromion, required additional surgery by the twenty-four-month time point. The number of patients who required additional surgery was greater (p = 0.05) in the group that had arthroscopic cuff repair alone than in the group that had arthroscopic cuff repair and acromioplasty.

Conclusions:
Our findings are consistent with previous research reports in which there was no difference in functional and quality-of-life indices for patients who had rotator cuff repair with or without acromioplasty. The higher reoperation rate was found in the group without acromioplasty. Further study that includes follow-up imaging and patient-reported outcomes over a greater follow-up period is needed.

58
Q

Risk factors for lack of repair healing

A

Factors influencing the risk of failure in tendon healing after primary
rotator cuff repair1:
■ AP tear size
■ Grade of infraspinatus
fatty infiltration
■ Bone mineral density
■ Tear retraction
■ Increasing age >70 years
■ Level of work activity

A

Results:
There were 15,257 patients who underwent biceps tenodesis. Of these, 9274 patients (60.8%) underwent arthroscopic biceps tenodesis, while 5983 (39.2%) underwent open biceps tenodesis. A total of 171 patients (1.8%) and 111 patients (1.9%) required revision biceps tenodesis after arthroscopic and open biceps tenodesis, respectively (P = .5). Male sex (OR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.04-1.85]; P = .02) was the only independent risk factor for revision biceps tenodesis after the index open biceps tenodesis. After arthroscopic biceps tenodesis, age >45 years (OR, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.39-0.89]; P = .01) and concomitant rotator cuff tear (OR, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.47-0.71]; P < .001) were independent protective factors for revision biceps tenodesis. The total cost of revision biceps tenodesis after open and arthroscopic biceps tenodesis was US$3427.95 and US$2174.33 per patient, respectively.
Conclusion:
There was no significant difference in the revision rate between arthroscopic and open biceps tenodesis. Risk factors for revision surgery included male sex for open biceps tenodesis, while age >45 years and rotator cuff tears were protective factors for arthroscopic biceps tenodesis.

Clinical success of biceps tenodesis with and without release of the transverse humeral ligament
Author links open overlay panelBrett Sanders MD a, Kyle P. Lavery BA b, Scott Pennington MD c, Jon J.P. Warner MD b

A

When all techniques that released the biceps sheath (6.8%, 4/59) were compared to those that did not release the biceps sheath (20.6%, 14/68), a statistically significant difference was found, P = .026 (chi-square). Proximal arthroscopic techniques were revised at a significantly higher rate than distal tenodesis techniques (P = .005).

Conclusion
Biceps tenodesis techniques which do not release the biceps sheath or remove the tendon from the sheath have increased revision rates, compared to techniques that do. This may be supportive evidence for the theory that residual pain generating elements in the biceps groove is a cause of failure of proximal tenodesis methods.
