Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the clinical and structural outcomes after arthroscopic repair of isolated supraspinatus tears in patients older than 70 years vs. patients younger than 50 years to determine whether age influences the treatment of these tears. Methods We conducted a retrospective, comparative study of 87 shoulders of 86 patients older than 70 years who underwent rotator cuff repair after isolated full-thickness supraspinatus tear between January 2010 and December 2020. A control group of 87 patients younger than 50 years was matched for sex, body mass index, smoking habits, tendon retraction according to Patte and fatty infiltration according to Goutallier. Clinical assessment used Constant-Murley Score (CMS), age- and sex-matched Constant Scores and Subjective Shoulder Value at 6 months. Cuff integrity was evaluated using ultrasonography based on the Sugaya criteria, types I-II-III being considered as healed. Results The CMS significantly improved by +17.91 points in elderly patients compared with +7.47 points in controls (P < .1) and activity (P = .2), mobility (P < .1), and strength (P < .1). The adjusted CMS significantly improved by +24.94 in elderly patients compared with +8.49 points in controls (P < .1). The Subjective Shoulder Value improved by +29.48 points in elderly patients compared with +23.47 points in controls. The improvement was similar in both groups. (P < .10). Satisfaction was similar in both groups (P = .31). Regarding structural outcomes, patients younger than 50 years presented better results in terms of healing than patients older than 70 years, as the healing rate was 73.7% in the elderly group and 88.5% in the control group (P = .1). The clinical outcomes were not significantly associated with the tendon healing (P = .1). Conclusion Functional gain for patients older than 70 years is better than their younger peers despite their low-grade healing. Arthroscopic repair after isolated supraspinatus tears should be considered as a valuable treatment regardless the age.

Clinical and Structural Outcomes of Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair in Patients Over 75 Years Are Comparable to Those in Younger Patients: A Propensity Score-Matched Comparative Study. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1739-1750.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare clinical and structural outcomes of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) in patients over 75 years and those under 75 years and to analyze the factors associated with retear and clinical outcomes after ARCR. METHODS This retrospective study reviewed patients who underwent ARCR between 2011 and 2021 with at least 2 years of follow-up. Using propensity score matching for sex, tear size, subscapularis involvement, and follow-up time, this study included 54 patients older than 75 years (group A) and 54 patients younger than 75 years (group B). Cuff integrity was evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Structural and clinical outcomes were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS The mean improvements in external rotation (P = .030) and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score (P = .043) were significantly higher in group A. Visual analog scales for pain and function, ASES score, and Constant score were significantly improved in both groups (all P = .001). On routine postoperative MRI at 6 months, the retear rate was 20.4% (11/54) in group A and 18.5% (10/54) in group B with no statistical difference between the 2 groups (P = .808). Factor analysis in group A showed that follow-up duration (P = .019), tear size in mediolateral dimension (P = .037), occupation ratio (P = .036), and incomplete repair (P = .034) were associated with retear, and mild glenohumeral arthritis (P = .003) and subscapularis involvement (P = .018) were associated with inferior Constant score. CONCLUSIONS Clinical and structural outcomes after ARCR in patients aged 75 years or older are comparable to those in patients younger than 75 years. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective case-control study.

Dreibholz E, Solomon D. Editorial Commentary: Patients 75 Years and Older Achieve Rotator Cuff Repair Outcome Similar to Younger Patients with Proper Surgical Indications. Arthroscopy 2024; 40:1751-1752.

Abstract
Recent research shows that similar early outcomes can be expected after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair in patients 75 years or older compared to a propensity-matched group under age 75 years. Retear rates are similar. Yet, younger patients show greater range of motion and strength. Proper patient selection is vital; it may be that older patients are indicated for rotator cuff repair surgery with less frequency.

Abstract
Background Rotator cuff injuries are common, and morbidity increases with age. The asymptomatic full-thickness tear rate is 40% in the over 75-year-old population. Purpose This study aimed to systematically review the literature on the outcomes of rotator cuff repair among >75 years old patients. Study design Systematic review. Methods A systematic review of the literature was performed following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. A literature search was performed in the electronic databases of PubMed, Medline, Embase, and The Cochrane Library. Studies in English evaluating repair of full-thickness rotator cuff tears in patients aged >75 years were included. Results Six studies were reviewed, including 311 patients (313 shoulders) treated with arthroscopic and/or open rotator cuff repair. Sixty-one patients were lost to follow-up, leaving 252 shoulders with outcome data. Patients in this age group demonstrated a significant improvement in the clinical and functional scores after rotator cuff repair, with a high satisfaction rate. The mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores improved from 43.8 (range, 42.0-45.5) preoperatively to 85.3 (range, 84.0 to 86.5) postoperatively, and the mean Constant scores improved from 45.4 (range, 34.7-55.5) to 78.6 (range, 67.0-91.6). Pain, evaluated in all studies by the visual analog scale for pain, showed a significant improvement at the last follow-up compared with the mean preoperative score. Furthermore, range of motion and return to daily activities and sports gained marked improvements. Conclusion Rotator cuff repair in patients aged >75 years could achieve high clinical success rates with good outcomes and pain relief. Although patients in this age group are at a high risk of retear, rotator cuff repair may offer a good option with significant functional and clinical improvement.

Baumgarten KM. Can the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation be used as a stand-alone subjective outcome instrument in patients undergoing rotator cuff repair? J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:2542-2553. [PMID: 35750155 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2022.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/HYPOTHESIS There is no consensus to which patient-determined shoulder outcome scores should be considered when analyzing patient outcomes. Use of multiple patient-determined outcomes may be redundant and cause increased responder burden. The Single Assessment Numeric (SANE) has not been widely accepted as a stand-alone shoulder-specific outcome measure. The hypothesis was that SANE will correlate with and be comparable in responsiveness to other subjective outcome measures that have been used in a stand-alone fashion in patients undergoing rotator cuff repair (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form [ASES], Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index [WORC], and the Simple Shoulder Test [SST]). In addition, the SANE will be more relevant to each patient compared to the ASES, further supporting its use as a stand-alone shoulder-specific outcomes measure. METHODS A retrospective review of a database of patients undergoing rotator cuff repair was reviewed where the SANE was recorded with the ASES, WORC, and/or SST. Correlations were determined using the Pearson coefficient. Subgroup analysis was performed to determine if correlations differed in (1) preoperative and (2) postoperative outcome determinations. Responsiveness was determined by calculating the standardized response mean (SRM) and the effect size (ES) of all scores. Relevance and precision of the SANE and ASES were examined using 150 consecutive patients to determine the number of questions in each score that were not answered. RESULTS Correlation was excellent for the SANE and the ASES (n = 1838, r = 0.81, P < .0001), the WORC (n = 1793, r = 0.82, P < .0001), and the SST (n = 1836, r = 0.76, P < .0001). Correlation of preoperative scores was moderate and postoperative scores were excellent when comparing the SANE with all 3 scores. All scores were highly responsive, with the SRM of the SANE = 2.1, ASES = 2.2, WORC = 2.4, and the SST = 1.8. The ES of the SANE = 2.4, ASES = 2.7, WORC = 3.0, and the SST = 2.1. One hundred percent of the SANE scores were answered completely compared with 57% (P < .0001) of the ASES, with significant variability found in the answers to the "work" and "score" questions. CONCLUSION In patients undergoing rotator cuff repair, the SANE highly correlated and has equivalent responsiveness with the WORC, ASES, and SST, which have been used as stand-alone shoulder-specific outcomes measures. The SANE may provide the same information as the WORC, ASES, and SST regarding outcome with significant reduction in responder burden. This study supports that the SANE can be used as a subjective, stand-alone instrument for patients undergoing rotator cuff repair.

Abstract
Based on the published animal studies, we systematically evaluated the outcomes of various materials for rotator cuff repair in animal models and the potentials of their clinical translation. 74 animal studies were finally included, of which naturally derived biomaterials were applied the most widely (50.0%), rats were the most commonly used animal model (47.0%), and autologous tissue demonstrated the best outcomes in all animal models. The biomechanical properties of naturally derived biomaterials (maximum failure load: WMD 18.68 [95%CI 7.71-29.66]; P = 0.001, and stiffness: WMD 1.30 [95%CI 0.01-2.60]; P = 0.048) was statistically significant in the rabbit model. The rabbit model showed better outcomes even though the injury was severer compared with the rat model.

Repair of high-grade partial thickness supraspinatus tears after surgical completion of the tear have a lower retear rate when compared to full-thickness tear repair. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2021; 29:2370-2375. [PMID: 33683392 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06524-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE High-grade partial thickness rotator cuff tears (i.e., those involving at least 50% of the tendon thickness) are especially challenging to treat and various treatment strategies have been described. Prior studies have demonstrated equivalent outcomes between in situ tear fixation and tear completion repair techniques. However, it is unknown how repair of completed high-grade partial thickness tears to full tears compares to repair of full-thickness tears. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical outcome measures at least 1 year postoperatively between patients who had completion of a high-grade partial thickness supraspinatus tear to a full-thickness tear (PT) and those who had an isolated full-thickness supraspinatus tear (FT). The hypothesis of this study was equivalent retear rates as well as equivalent clinical and patient-reported outcomes between the two groups. METHODS A retrospective review of 100 patients who underwent isolated arthroscopic supraspinatus repair between 2013 and 2018 with a minimum of 1 year follow-up was performed. Patients were separated into two groups based on their treatment: 56 had completion of a partial thickness supraspinatus tear to full-thickness tear with repair (PT) and 44 had isolated full-thickness supraspinatus repairs (FT). The primary outcome was rotator cuff retear, which was defined as a supraspinatus retear requiring revision repair. Secondary outcomes were patient-reported outcome measures (PROs) including visual analog pain scale (VAS) and subjective shoulder value (SSV), range of motion (ROM) and strength in forward flexion (FF), external rotation (ER), and internal rotation (IR). RESULTS There was a significantly lower rate of retear between the PT versus FT groups (3.6% vs. 16.3%, p = 0.040). There were no significant differences between groups for all PROs, all ROM parameters, and all strength parameters (all n.s.). DISCUSSION The data from this study demonstrated that the PT group had a significantly lower retear rate at 1 year follow-up than the FT group, while PROs, ROM, and strength were similar between the two groups. Patients with PT supraspinatus tears can have excellent outcomes, equivalent to FT tears, after completion of the tear, and subsequent repair with low retear rates. These findings may aid the treating surgeon when choosing between in situ fixation of the PT supraspinatus tear or completion of the tear and subsequent repair, as it allows the treating surgeon to choose the procedure based on comfort and experience level.

Abstract
Background Biologic technologies can potentially augment existing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair to improve retear rates and postoperative outcomes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate healing rates and clinical outcomes of full-thickness rotator cuff repairs augmented with a bioinductive bovine collagen implant. Methods In this prospective multicenter study, investigators enrolled 115 patients (mean age, 60.4 years) with full-thickness rotator cuff tears. There were 66 (57.4%) medium (1-3 cm) tears and 49 (42.6%) large (3-5 cm) tears. Eligible patients consisted of those ≥21 years of age with chronic shoulder pain lasting longer than 3 months and unresponsive to conservative therapy. Patients underwent single- or double-row repair augmented with a bioinductive bovine collagen implant. At the baseline, 3 months, and 1 year, magnetic resonance imaging was performed and patients were assessed for American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score and Constant-Murley Score (CMS). The primary failure end point was retear, classified as any new full-thickness defect observed on magnetic resonance imaging. Results There were 13 retears (11.3%) at 3 months, with an additional 6 (19 total [16.5%]) found at 1 year. In large tears, double-row repair had a significantly lower rate of retear at 3 months (P = .0004) and 1 year (P = .0001) compared with single-row repair. ASES and CMS scores significantly improved between the baseline and 1 year for medium and large tears. At 1 year, the minimally clinically important difference for ASES and CMS was met by 91.7% (95% CI: 84.9-96.1) and 86.4% (95% CI: 78.2-92.4) of patients, respectively. Patients without retear and those <65 years of age had significantly better CMS scores at 1 year when compared with those with retear and those ≥65 years (P < .05). There was no statistically significant difference in outcomes based on treatment of the biceps tendon. Of 9 reported reoperations in the operative shoulder, only 2 were considered potentially related to the collagen implant. Conclusion Interim results from this prospective study indicate a favorable rate of retear relative to the literature and improvement in clinical function at 1 year after adjunctive treatment with the study implant augmenting standard arthroscopic repair techniques.
