Abstract
The aim of this article is to review the postoperative MRI appearances of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears (RCTs) after surgery was performed using newer techniques, including patch repair, muscle tendon transfer, superior capsular reconstruction, and subacromial balloon implantation. Newer surgical techniques are emerging for the management of massive RCTs. As radiologists become increasingly likely to encounter postoperative imaging studies of RCTs repaired using these techniques, familiarity with the normal postoperative appearances and complications associated with these techniques becomes important.
