Arthroscopic Treatment of Bursal-side Rotator Cuff Tears in Shoulder Joint

A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with bursal-side partial-thickness rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic surgery from January 2009 to December 2011. To investigate the diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of partial rotator cuff bursa lateral tear, and to evaluate the postoperative functional outcome and tendon healing.

About this study

To study the surgical method and clinical effect of arthroscopic treatment for partial tear of rotator cuff bursa. A retrospective analysis was performed on patients bursal-side partial-thickness rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic surgery from January 2009 to December 2011. Preoperative X-ray and MRI were performed. Rotator cuff repair was performed during the operation. UCLA shoulder scoring scale was used to evaluate the joint at preoperative and final follow-up.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with frozen shoulder and unstable shoulder joints.

Treatment and study plan

Shoulder Arthroscopy

Procedure

Patients underwent ubacromial bursectomy and acromioplasty , cuff debridement and cuff repair, side to side suture of rotator cuff combined with suture anchor.

Primary outcomes

  1. UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 1 year after operation.

    Time frame: 1 year after operation

    Analysis of UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 1 year after operation. The scale has a minimum score of 2 and a maximum score of 35. The higher the score, the better the prognosis of the patients.

  2. UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 2 years after operation.

    Time frame: 2 years after operation

    Analysis of UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 2 years after operation.The scale has a minimum score of 2 and a maximum score of 35. The higher the score, the better the prognosis of the patients.

  3. UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 5 years after operation.

    Time frame: 5 years after operation

    Analysis of UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles)Shoulder Score Scale at 5 years after operation. The scale has a minimum score of 2 and a maximum score of 35. The higher the score, the better the prognosis of the patients.
