Bilateral Arthroscopic Superior Capsular Reconstruction of the Shoulder for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears: A Case Report and Description of Surgical Technique.

2021 
The treatment strategies for rotator cuff tears have grown more sophisticated in recent years. Over the past decade, arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) has become popular for treating irreparable rotator cuff tears. Despite the popularity, the literature on the clinical outcomes of SCR is limited. Several surgical procedures using variable graft materials and different techniques have been proposed promising early clinical results with improvements in shoulder pain, range of motion, and overall function. In this paper, we present a case of bilateral massive irreparable rotator cuff tears, with a full description of our surgical technique and the successful outcome of our management.
