Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is to analyse whether there is a difference in clinical and radiological outcomes between single row and double row repair techniques for the treatment of shoulder's rotator cuff tears.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A tear of the rotator cuff is one of the most common disorders of the shoulder and can have a significant effect on daily activities as a result of a loss of motion and strength. The goal of rotator cuff repair is to treat the patient's current clinical symptoms and improve shoulder function and to prevent the long-term consequences of rotator cuff arthropathy. This project aims at a retrospective analysis of preexisting risk factors for sustaining rotator cuff injury as well as for failing to reach the previous functional level, used surgical technique -either single row repair or double row repair- and its significance for the functional outcome.
