All-Suture Repair for Compressive Rotator Cuff Tears: Reducing the Traction of the Tissue

Tears of the rotator cuff are a frequent pathology, but the best surgical procedure remains unclear. The arthroscopic approach has become the gold standard, but there are many different suture configurations that can be used. We describe an all-suture repair system with which the anatomical reduction of the rotator cuff is achieved performing traction from the anchor of the lateral row to subsequently performing a suture bridge suture from the medial row. The major advantage of this technique is that it creates compression forces and minimizing tensioning of the tissue
