Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic techniques in determining the potential reparability of complete rotator cuff tears, a clinical investigation was performed. The parameters of tear size measurement, tendon quality, tendon mobility, and suture anchor placement were evaluated. These parameters were determined using both arthroscopic and open surgical technique. No statistically significant differences were noted when the arthroscopic findings were compared with the findings at open rotator cuff repair. Arthroscopic techniques can reliably assess rotator cuff tear size, tendon quality, tendon mobility, and suture anchor placement.
