Abstract

Shoulder arthroscopy has progressed from its early use as a diagnostic tool to routine use in the management of rotator cuff tears. An arthroscopic rotator cuff repair consists in: glenohumeral joint and subacromial space inspection, partial bursectomy, determination of cuff reparability, identification of tear geometry, resection of the coracoacromial ligament, acromioplasty, greater tuberosity repair site preparation, anchor placement, suture placement, and knot tying.
