ABSTRACT
Arthroscopic repair of chronic retracted rotator cuff tears remains challenging to shoulder arthroscopy surgeons. With the recent technical advances, most of the massive rotator cuff tears are managed successfully. The biceps tendon is highly vascular and a rich source of tenocytes and fibroblasts, which can promote biological healing. In massive degenerate rotator cuff tears in which the rotator cuff tissue can be released and fixed onto the footprint without much tissue tension, long head of the biceps tendon can act as an augment providing structural support to the poor-quality rotator cuff tissue and also enhancing the healing process. In this Technical Note, we describe arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using biceps augmentation for a massive degenerate rotator cuff tear with the excursion of the cuff onto the footprint with minimal tissue tension.
