To compare the clinical and imaging outcome of arthroscopic transosseous (TO)-equivalent rotator cuff repair (RCR) with anchors with arthroscopic anchorless TO RCR at a minimum of 2 years postoperatively.The study population included patients who underwent RCR using either an anchorless TO technique with a TO suture passing device (group A) and those who were matched for tear size and underwent RCR using suture anchors for repair (group B). The inclusion criterion was an easily reducible rotator cuff tear with a sagittal extension of 2 to 4 cm. After a minimum of 2 years, clinical outcome scores and magnetic resonance imaging were obtained. Tendon quality and footprint integration were evaluated using the Sugaya classification.Seventy patients were included. A total of 45 were in group A and 25 were in group B. Group A had 2 bone tunnels and 4 sutures using an X-box configuration, and group B had a suture bridge construct of 4 anchors. Group A and B had identical anteroposterior tear size and were comparable for age. The Constant score improved from 50 ± 17.4 to 88 ± 8.6 in group A versus 48 ± 14.5 to 87 ± 7.2 in B. The Subjective Shoulder Value rose from 47 ± 19.1 to 95 ± 7.4 in group A vs from 47 ± 19.4 to 95 ± 7.6 in B. Neither the preoperative (Anchorless TO RCR is a valid alternative to suture anchor techniques. Clinical outcome data showed comparable results for both techniques after a follow-up of 2 years. The healing results as observed on magnetic resonance imaging were also equivalent for both groups.Level III, retrospective comparative study. |
