Abstract
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the early reaction of all-suture anchors (ASAs) in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
METHODS
This retrospective case series comprised 23 patients (8 women, 15 men; mean age = 59.9 years, age range = 36-73 years) with medium-size rotator cuff tear who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. All patients underwent postoperative serial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Demographic and operative characteristics were recorded. MRIs were evaluated for osseous cyst formation, and tunnel volume was measured. Statistical analyses were performed to detect differences in the serial MRI follow-up observation.
RESULTS
A total of 39 ASAs were evaluated. Osseous cyst formation was found in two ASAs (5.1%) at the 6-month follow-up. Tunnel expansion was significantly observed in both 3- and 6-month postoperative MRI evaluations (P < 0.001). The mean tunnel volume significantly increased 1.95 times at the 3-month follow-up and 2.84 times at the 6-month follow-up (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
Evidence from this study has revealed low rates of cyst formation but significant increases in tunnel volume at the early follow-up following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with ASAs.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE
Level IV, Therapeutic Study.
期刊介绍:
Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica (AOTT) is an international, scientific, open access periodical published in accordance with independent, unbiased, and double-blinded peer-review principles. The journal is the official publication of the Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, and Turkish Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology. It is published bimonthly in January, March, May, July, September, and November. The publication language of the journal is English.
The aim of the journal is to publish original studies of the highest scientific and clinical value in orthopedics, traumatology, and related disciplines. The scope of the journal includes but not limited to diagnostic, treatment, and prevention methods related to orthopedics and traumatology. Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica publishes clinical and basic research articles, case reports, personal clinical and technical notes, systematic reviews and meta-analyses and letters to the Editor. Proceedings of scientific meetings are also considered for publication.
The target audience of the journal includes healthcare professionals, physicians, and researchers who are interested or working in orthopedics and traumatology field, and related disciplines.
