Modified Double-Row Suture Bridge Technique With Double-Row Biceps Tenodesis for Massive Rotator Cuff Tear.

ABSTRACT: This article aims to describe a modification of the arthroscopic suture bridge technique for repair of a massive (>3 cm) rotator cuff tear. The method uses 2 medial anchors and 2 lateral anchors for rotator cuff repair, as well as double-row biceps tenodesis. This operative modification may impart better tendon healing and fewer rupture complications than the traditional double-row repair techniques.
