Arthroscopic Linked Triple Row Repair for Large and Massive Rotator Cuff Tears
Recently, many arthroscopic techniques have been described to improve the outcomes in rotator cuff repair of large and massive tears; these include conventional double-row, suture bridge, and triple-row techniques, in an effort to optimally reconstruct the rotator cuff footprint and improve fixation...

| Summary: | Recently, many arthroscopic techniques have been described to improve the outcomes in rotator cuff repair of large and massive tears; these include conventional double-row, suture bridge, and triple-row techniques, in an effort to optimally reconstruct the rotator cuff footprint and improve fixation. This report describes a modified triple-row repair technique that links the double-row and suture-bridge techniques in one construct, merging the advantages of both to maximize the footprint contact area and contact pressure, which may lead to better healing and faster rehabilitation. |
