Arthroscopic-Assisted Lower Trapezius Tendon Transfer Using a Fasciae Lata Autograft in Treatment of Posterior Superior Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears in Lateral Decubitus Position

The optimal treatment for patients with posterior superior irreparable rotator cuff tears (PSIRCTs) is still a topic of ongoing debate. Lower trapezius tendon transfer is one of the effective surgical treatments for PSIRCTs in younger patients and elderly patients with high activity levels without a...

description The optimal treatment for patients with posterior superior irreparable rotator cuff tears (PSIRCTs) is still a topic of ongoing debate. Lower trapezius tendon transfer is one of the effective surgical treatments for PSIRCTs in younger patients and elderly patients with high activity levels without arthritis. In this report, we describe an arthroscopic-assisted technique for lower trapezius transfer using a fascia lata autograft for patient with PSIRCTs in lateral decubitus position.
