Abstract

In shoulders with irreparable massive rotator cuff tears (RCTs) with high-grade fatty degeneration (Goutallier stage 3 or 4) of the supraspinatus tendon and low-grade fatty degeneration (Goutallier stage 1 or 2) of the infraspinatus tendon (ISP), arthroscopic patch grafting (PG) has been reported as superior to partial repair (PR) regarding the ISP retear rate at short-term to midterm follow-up. However, the longer term outcomes are unclear.
