Augmentation of a Transosseous-Equivalent Repair in Posterosuperior Nonacute Rotator Cuff Tears With a Bioinductive Collagen Implant Decreases the Retear Rate at 1 Year: A Randomized Controlled Trial. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1760-1773. [PMID: 38158165 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2023.12.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether the addition of a bioinductive collagen implant (BCI) over a transosseous equivalent (TOE) repair of medium-to-large posterosuperior rotator cuff tears improves the healing rate determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 12-month follow-up. METHODS A Level I randomized controlled trial was performed in 124 subjects with isolated, symptomatic, reparable, full-thickness, medium-to-large posterosuperior nonacute rotator cuff tears, with fatty infiltration ≤2. These were randomized to 2 groups in which an arthroscopic posterosuperior rotator cuff tear TOE repair was performed alone (Control group) or with BCI applied over the TOE repair (BCI group). The primary outcome was the retear rate (defined as Sugaya 4-5) determined by MRI at 12 months of follow-up. Secondary outcomes were characteristics of the tendon (Sugaya grade and thickness of the healed tendon) and clinical outcomes (pain levels, EQ-5D-5L, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, and Constant-Murley scores) at 12 months of follow-up. RESULTS Of the 124 randomized patients, 122 (60 in the BCI group and 62 in the Control group) were available for MRI evaluation 12.2 ± 1.02 months after the intervention. There were no relevant differences in preoperative characteristics. Adding the BCI reduced the retear rate (8.3% [5/60] in the BCI group vs 25.8% [16/62] in the Control group, P = .010; relative risk of retear of 0.32 [95% confidence interval 0.13-0.83]). Sugaya grade was also better in the BCI group (P = .030). There were no differences between groups in the percentage of subjects who reached the MCID for CMS (76.7% vs 81.7%, P = .654) or American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (75% vs 80%, P = .829), in other clinical outcomes or in complication rates at 12.4 ± 0.73 (range 11.5-17) months of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Augmentation with a BCI of a TOE repair in a medium-to-large posterosuperior rotator cuff tear reduces the retear rate at 12-month follow-up by two-thirds, yielding similar improvements in clinical outcomes and without increased complication rates. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level I, randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE To perform a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to compare the outcomes of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) with and without acellular collagen matrix patch (ACMP) augmentation. METHODS A literature search of 3 databases was performed based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. RCTs comparing ACMP augmentation and a control for ARCR were included. Clinical outcomes were compared using Revman, and a P value < .05 was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS Five RCTs with 307 patients were included. Overall, 11% of patients treated with ACMP augmentation and 34% of patients in the control group had a re-tear (P = .0006). The mean Constant score was 90.1 with ACMP augmentation, and 87.3 in controls (P = .02). Additionally, there was a significant higher American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score with ACMP augmentation (87.7 vs 82.1, P = .01). CONCLUSIONS The RCTs in the literature support the use of ACMP augment as a modality to reduce re-tear rates and improve outcomes after ARCR.

Barber FA. Editorial Commentary: Acellular Collagen Matrix Patch Augmentation of Large Rotator Cuff Tear Repair Results in Improved Healing. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:947-949.

Abstract
Despite a high retear rate, repair of large rotator cuff tendon tear repairs shows good clinical outcomes. Unfortunately, these results often deteriorate with time, and large tears, not to mention progressively symptomatic retears, especially in compromised rotator cuff tissue, remain a problem. The solution could include augmenting repair with a patch such as an acellular collagen matrix. Proper patient selection is needed to achieve a benefit justifying the added expense and operative time associated with adding a patch. Biomechanically, such patches are strong and increase suture retention, as well as repair construct strength and stiffness. Patches provide a significant healing effect. Recent research and meta-analysis support the use of patches on rotator cuff tendon tears 3 cm or larger, whereas smaller tears (1-2 cm in length) appear to heal without the need for a patch.

Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2023; 31:5255-5269. [PMID: 37775643 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-023-07568-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the clinical outcomes and retear rates after rotator cuff repair (RCR) between delaminated and non-delaminated tears. METHODS This systematic review was conducted according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses guidelines using the PubMed, Cochrane Library, the Web of Science and Embase databases. Only articles on arthroscopic RCR with clinical outcome scores and data on the number of rotator cuff retears and complete healing were included. This study's relevant data were extracted and statistically analyzed. The methodological index for nonrandomized studies was used to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. After conducting a heterogeneity test and sensitivity analysis to determine whether the samples were heterogeneous, the study also detected publication bias. A sub-group test was used to evaluate the influences of the imaging follow-up period on retear rates. RESULTS Ten eligible articles were identified with 2,061 patients (925 in the delaminated group and 1,136 in the non-delaminated group). The meta-analysis demonstrated that delamination was significantly associated with higher retear rates (P = 0.026; odds ratio = 1.873, 95% confidence interval 1.079-3.252; I2 = 51.6%) with an imaging follow-up period of > 1 year and lower rates of complete healing (P = 0.036; odds ratio = 0.659, 95% confidence interval 0.446-0.973; I2 = 9.0%) in patients after rotator cuff repair. However, no significant differences were observed between the two groups based on American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, Constant score, visual analog scale score, external rotation, internal rotation, or forward elevation. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis found that delamination was significantly associated with higher retear rates with imaging follow-up period of > 1 year, and lower rates of complete healing. In addition, the preoperative and postoperative clinical scores and shoulder joint range of motion were similar between patients with delaminated and non-delaminated tears.
