Objectives: To evaluate long-term clinical outcomes after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with and without acromioplasty. Methods: Between 2007-2011, prospectively-enrolled patients undergoing arthroscopic repair for full-thickness rotator cuff tears were previously randomized into either acromioplasty or non-acromioplasty groups. Patients with death, advanced neurologic conditions, or subsequent shoulder arthroplasty were excluded. Baseline and long-term follow-up questionnaires, including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Simple Shoulder Test (SST), University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain, and Constant scores were obtained. Rates of revision rotator cuff surgery, or secondary reoperation were recorded. Averages with standard deviation (SD) were calculated, and t-tests were utilized to compare outcomes of interest between cohorts. Results: After exclusion of 5 additional patients from the short-term follow-up study, 66 of 90 patients (73.3%) were available at 92.4 months (±10.5). Comparison of baseline demographics and intraoperative information revealed no significant differences, including age, gender, workers compensation, acute mechanism of injury, tear size, degree of retraction, and surgical technique (e.g. single- vs. double-row). At final follow-up, there were no statistically significant differences according to ASES (p=0.33), VAS pain (p=0.79), Constant (p=0.17), SST (p=0.05), UCLA (p=0.19), and SF-12 (p=0.79) in patients with and without acromioplasty (Figure 1). One patient with acromioplasty (2.9%) and two patients without acromioplasty (6.3%) sustained atraumatic recurrent rotator cuff tear with secondary repair (p=0.99). Conclusion: Combined acromioplasty and rotator cuff repair offer no significant long-term benefits in patient-reported outcomes or secondary surgery when compared to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone.

Objectives To correlate the deterioration of preserved long head of biceps tendon (LHB) after rotator cuff repair with preoperative and postoperative MRI factors. Methods Total of 209 shoulder joints (F:M = 145:64; mean age 57.4 years) which underwent rotator cuff repair and at least two postoperative MRI scans over 10 months after surgery were included. LHB integrity was graded with a five point severity scale. LHB deterioration was defined by increased composite score of integrity and extent score between the preoperative and second postoperative MRI. For preoperative and postoperative MRI factors, size and location of superior cuff -supraspinatus and infraspinatus- and subscapularis tears, fatty degeneration of rotator cuff, preoperative LHB status, subluxation of LHB, superior labral tear, acromion type, repaired rotator cuff status, postoperative capsulitis and acromioplasty state were assessed. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between LHB deterioration and aforementioned factors. Same analysis was conducted for 62 shoulder joints with a long-term follow-up MRI. Results Of the 209 shoulders, 49.3% (n = 103) showed LHB deterioration on short-term follow-up MRI. In long-term follow-up subgroup, 32 LHBs were further deteriorated. In multivariate analysis, fatty degeneration of superior cuff showed significant association with LHB deterioration in both short-term (p = .04, p = .007) and long-term subgroups (p = .004, p = .005) among preoperative and postoperative factors, respectively. Conclusions Degree of fatty degeneration in superior cuff is associated with LHB deterioration on postoperative MRI. Advances in knowledge Our results support that tenotomy or tenodesis of LHB should be considered during rotator cuff repair, especially in patients with advanced fatty degeneration of rotator cuff.

Suture anchors are commonly used in shoulder surgeries, especially for rotator cuff tears. Peri-anchor cyst formation, however, is sometimes detected on follow-up radiologic image after surgery. The purpose of this report is to discuss the case of a patient who presented with regression of extensive peri-anchor cyst on postoperative 4-year follow-up magnetic resonance imaging and had good clinical outcome despite peri-anchor cyst formation after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
