Rotator Cuff Repair Using Coracoacromial Ligament Autograft for Supraspinatus Footprint Augmentation.

ABSTRACT: Failure of rotator cuff repair can be a disastrous clinical outcome. Although failure is a multifactorial issue, recent interest has piqued in understanding the biology of the insertional components of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus at the footprint. When the torn tendon is of poor quality, especially if it is diminutive or thin, rotator cuff repair augmentation should be considered to aid in long-term healing. Various allograft options have been described in the past, and more recently, xenografts and synthetics have become more commonly used. The use of autografts in the treatment of insertional footprint deficiency has great potential; however, few grafts have been described. This study describes the surgical technique for footprint augmentation in arthroscopic supraspinatus repair using harvested autologous coracoacromial ligament tissue.

Supraspinatus Tendon Reconstruction Using Fascia Lata Autograft for Irreparable Posterosuperior Massive Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Superior capsule reconstruction has shown good long-term clinical efficacy in treating irreparable posterosuperior massive rotator cuff tears. However, conventional superior capsule reconstruction did not treat the medial supraspinatus tendons. Therefore, dynamic function of the posterosuperior rotator cuff does not restore effectively, especially the function of active abduction and external rotation. We describe a supraspinatus tendon reconstruction technique that presents a stepwise approach to accomplish the dual goals of stable anatomic reconstruction and restoring the dynamic function of the supraspinatus tendon.

Rotator Cuff Repair with Knotless All-Suture Medial Row Anchors and Biceps Autograft Augmentation.

Project description:Incomplete healing and/or functional failure following rotator cuff tear repair remains a challenging problem for both patients and surgeons. Augmentation strategies are growing to increase healing through biologic and mechanical mechanisms to improve functional results after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. The majority of currently described augmentation techniques use allograft tissue. An alternative, low-cost, autograft option for augmentation is the use of the long head of biceps tendon autograft as a free functional graft. Here, we describe the use of autograft biceps tendon as a viable option for augmentation of double-row rotator cuff repair with knotless all-suture suture anchors.

Biological augmentation of rotator cuff tendon repair.

Project description:A histologically normal insertion site does not regenerate following rotator cuff tendon-to-bone repair, which is likely due to abnormal or insufficient gene expression and/or cell differentiation at the repair site. Techniques to manipulate the biologic events following tendon repair may improve healing. We used a sheep infraspinatus repair model to evaluate the effect of osteoinductive growth factors and BMP-12 on tendon-to-bone healing. Magnetic resonance imaging and histology showed increased formation of new bone and fibrocartilage at the healing tendon attachment site in the treated animals, and biomechanical testing showed improved load-to-failure. Other techniques with potential to augment repair site biology include use of platelets isolated from autologous blood to deliver growth factors to a tendon repair site. Modalities that improve local vascularity, such as pulsed ultrasound, have the potential to augment rotator cuff healing. Important information about the biology of tendon healing can also be gained from studies of substances that inhibit healing, such as nicotine and antiinflammatory medications. Future approaches may include the use of stem cells and transcription factors to induce formation of the native tendon-bone insertion site after rotator cuff repair surgery.

Supraspinatus Rotator Cuff Repair: A Mouse Model and Technique.

Project description:To improve understanding of the pathophysiology of rotator cuff repair and develop therapeutic treatments an animal model is essential. This Technical Note describes a comprehensive step-by-step description of rotator cuff repair in the mouse. This technique is particularly beneficial because the murine rotator cuff is anatomically similar to that of humans. The mouse model can also be used to test the biological role of candidate genes during repair and be used to identify drugs that accelerate the healing process.

Biceps Smash Technique: Biceps Tendon Autograft Augmentation for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Reconstruction.

Project description:The proportion of postoperative retears after arthroscopic rotator cuff reconstruction remains constant despite advancement of suture techniques and improved anchor implants. The commonly degenerative nature of rotator cuff tears can carry the risk of compromised tissue. Several techniques have been developed to biologically enhance rotator cuff repair, and a considerable number of autologous, allogeneic, and xenogenous augmentation methods have been described. This article introduces the biceps smash technique, an arthroscopic augmentation procedure for posterosuperior rotator cuff reconstruction using an autograft patch of the long head of the biceps tendon.

Free biceps tendon autograft to augment arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

Project description:Arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs have become the standard of treatment for all sizes of tears over the past several years. Current healing rates reported in the literature are quite good, but improving the healing potential of rotator cuff repairs remains a challenging problem. There has been an increase recently in the use of augmentation of rotator cuff repairs with xenografts or synthetics for large and massive tears. Biceps tenodesis is often indicated as part of the treatment plan while one is performing rotator cuff surgery. A subpectoral biceps tenodesis provides a source of autograft to augment rotator cuff repairs of all sizes. Two techniques are presented to augment rotator cuff repairs with a free biceps tendon autograft. This is a novel idea in an attempt to improve healing rates and long-term results of rotator cuff repairs of all sizes.

Rotator Cuff Reconstruction Using Fascia Lata Patch Autograft for the Nonrepairable Rotator Cuff Tear.

Project description:A large to massive rotator cuff tear is a common issue that lacks reliable options to return a patient's range of motion and function when conservative treatment has failed. With up to 96% of massive rotator cuff repairs failing within the first 6 months of repair, surgeons have been searching for a reliable treatment option for this difficult subset of patients. Surgical options for massive, retracted rotator cuff tears include re-establishing the counterforce coupling of the rotator cuff with techniques such as a partial repair or superior capsular reconstruction, preventing superior humeral migration as seen with balloon spacer implantation, and eliminating pain generators with techniques such as biceps tenotomy; however, these do not reconstitute dynamic cuff control. More recently, an acellular dermal allograft, as seen in superior capsular reconstruction, has been used to reconstruct the remaining rotator cuff. We describe a technique using a fascia lata autograft to reconstruct the rotator cuff in the setting of a massive cuff tear. This is of particular importance in centers that lack the funding or institutional approval to use acellular dermal allografts that have been popularized to date.

Biologic Augmentation of Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Using Minced Autologous Subacromial Bursa.

Project description:Failure of rotator cuff repair surgery can be attributed to a variety of factors, including insufficient biologic environment to support healing. The subacromial bursal tissue has been shown to have a reservoir of mesenchymal stem cells and is a potential source for biologic augmentation during rotator cuff repair. We have developed a technique to capture the subacromial bursal tissue during subacromial bursectomy and then reimplant the tissue on the bursal surface of the rotator cuff tendon after rotator cuff repair. Our goal is to describe our technique of subacromial tissue collection and reimplantation that obviates the need of suturing a whole sleeve of bursal tissue while improving cell yield for rotator cuff healing.

Arthroscopic Double-Row Rotator Cuff Repair With Biceps Augmentation.

Project description:Arthroscopic repair of chronic retracted rotator cuff tears remains challenging to shoulder arthroscopy surgeons. With the recent technical advances, most of the massive rotator cuff tears are managed successfully. The biceps tendon is highly vascular and a rich source of tenocytes and fibroblasts, which can promote biological healing. In massive degenerate rotator cuff tears in which the rotator cuff tissue can be released and fixed onto the footprint without much tissue tension, long head of the biceps tendon can act as an augment providing structural support to the poor-quality rotator cuff tissue and also enhancing the healing process. In this Technical Note, we describe arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using biceps augmentation for a massive degenerate rotator cuff tear with the excursion of the cuff onto the footprint with minimal tissue tension.
