Brief Summary

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

Chronic massive rotator cuff tears (MMRCTs) are a significant orthopedic challenge, often leading to significant shoulder pain and functional impairment. While surgical intervention is a common treatment approach, long-term outcomes and the optimal surgical technique remain debatable. Arthroscopic debridement, subacromial decompression, and biceps tenotomy are frequently employed procedures, but their long-term effectiveness in managing MMRCTs is not fully understood. A comprehensive understanding of the long-term outcomes of these procedures is crucial for guiding clinical decision-making and patient counseling.

The study aims to evaluate the long-term clinical and functional outcomes of arthroscopic debridement, subacromial decompression, and biceps tenotomy in patients with chronic massive rotator cuff tears. By analyzing a cohort of patients who underwent these procedures, we will assess factors influencing long-term outcomes, such as patient demographics, preoperative functional status, and surgical technique. Furthermore, we will compare the long-term results of this surgical approach to other treatment modalities, including open repair and conservative management.
