Arthroscopic Linked Triple Row Repair for Large and Massive Rotator Cuff Tears.

ABSTRACT: Recently, many arthroscopic techniques have been described to improve the outcomes in rotator cuff repair of large and massive tears; these include conventional double-row, suture bridge, and triple-row techniques, in an effort to optimally reconstruct the rotator cuff footprint and improve fixation. This report describes a modified triple-row repair technique that links the double-row and suture-bridge techniques in one construct, merging the advantages of both to maximize the footprint contact area and contact pressure, which may lead to better healing and faster rehabilitation.
