Background: Re-tear following rotator cuff repair (RCR) is a concerning complication that can lead to poor patient outcomes and necessitate the need for revision surgery. The purpose of our study was to look at the combined construct of knotted vs. knotless medial row and suture vs. suture tape, focusing primarily on re-tear rates following surgery. Methods: A retrospective observational study of 343 consecutive patients undergoing arthroscopic double row, 4-anchor rotator cuff repair from February 2014 to March 2020 was conducted. Univariate and multivariate statistics were used to assess differences in demographics, comorbidities and tear characteristics between patients who experienced a symptomatic re-tear and those who did not. Results: The overall symptomatic re-tear rate was 7.6%. Patients who had a knotted medial row repair had a significantly lower rate of re-tear (4.7 vs. 11.3%, p = 0.022). Patients that had a knotted medial row and suture tape repair were significantly less likely to experience a re-tear (OR: 0.180, p = 0.001). Discussion: The use of suture tape and a knotted medial row repair decreases the incidence of symptomatic re-tear following rotator cuff repair. The combined construct of suture tape and a knotted medial row in rotator cuff repair decreases the risk for symptomatic re-tear following surgery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
