This document discusses factors related to rotator cuff repair surgery. It addresses which tears require surgery and considerations around patient age. Key factors that affect healing are discussed such as tear size, retraction, and fatty infiltration. Guidelines are provided for managing tears in patients under and over 65. The steps of repair surgery are outlined, including assessment, preparation, anchor placement, suture passing techniques, and preferred repair techniques. Attention to set-up, visualization, and working within a standardized system are emphasized for success.
Rotator cuff tear is a very common orthopedic condition, which causes shoulder pain and stiffness. The slides are on rotator cuff tears and its management by open repair, mini open repair & by arthroscopy
Management of Shoulder dislocations and shoulder instability in sports BhaskarBorgohain4
acute shoulder dislocation is one of the most common sports injuries especially in contact sports. recurrent dislocations are quite common after anterior dislocation of shoulder especially in young athletes who are engaged in sports with lots of overhead activities during their games. Bankarts lesion, Hill sachs lesion are common predisposing factors for recurrence. Simple acute first time dislocations may be reduced on the field by a trained person but further referral is must for detail evaluation. recurrent dislocation can be reduced on field too by less trained. complicated dislocations, neurovascular deficits, fracture dislocation are to be referred to hospital immediately. Practical scientific algorithms are presented for their appropriate management here.

arthroscopy of the knee joint is a relatively common orthopedic procedure to treat a host of sports injuries and other knee diseases. Commonly a 4 mm size scope is used via two standard arthroscopy portals. Arthroscopic examination of the knee confirms MRI findings. Synovial fluid and biopsy can be taken to confirm diagnosis.

2. Cuff repairs
Which cuff tears need
surgery and when?
Does patient age matter?
Which tears will progress?
Pick winners.
How to repair a tear.

3. Age does matter
Average age patients who heal 55
Average age patients who do not heal 65
Only 43% supraspinatus tears healed in patients
older than 65 c/w 85% under 65(Boileau)
65 is correct cut off for aggressive vs
conservative management cuff tears (Yamaguchi
ICSES 2010)
3
4. Which tears progress
Maman
More than 1 tendon
Tear location - ant SST
Duration of symptoms
Moosmayer
>3cm
Yamaguchi
Full > partial thickness
21% asymp symp over 2 years
4
6. Tears under 65
Advise surgery
New or sudden pain (= ? tear progression)
>1.5cm
Anterior column supraspinatus involved
Else patient choice
Conservative vs operative
Injection reasonable but not >4 (Burkhead)
6
7. Tears over 65
Conservative initially
Physiotherapy
Activity modification
Analgesia
Injections
Surgery if still symptomatic at 6 months

9. Variables in cuff repair
Biological:
Extent and shape of tear
Degree of retraction
Quality of tendon
Quality of muscle
Quality of bone
Mobility of tendon
Healing of tendon to bone

11. Work to a system
Most tears can be repaired using a standardised
system so familiarise yourself with one
Techniques needed:
Knot tying
Sliding and non-sliding
Suture passage
Antegrade and retrograde
Repair type
Footprint: single or double row
Side to side

32. Current Preferred Technique: ‘Suture-Bridge’
(Footprint Anchor for Lateral
Row)
•Medial anchor: pass sutures through cuff medially
and tie knots (increases tissue cut-out resistance)
Suture limbs inserted into 1 or 2 lateral footprint
anchors
32
33. Footprint Anchor
•Standard medial row anchor(s)
and deep mattress sutures
•Don’t cut the sutures after tying
knots!!

34. Conclusion
Keys to success:
Pick a winner
Good anaesthesia
Tension-free reduction
Thorough bursectomy for visualisation
Work to a system
Variety of equipment invaluable
My choice is Suture-bridge technique:
some evidence of improved
biomechanical strength
