Abstract
Revision rotator cuff repair is a technically demanding procedure that can be complicated by the presence of large peri-implant cysts. When multiple suture anchors are encountered, massive bone defects may need to be addressed to ensure that tendon-bone fixation and healing can be optimized. This Technical Note discusses arthroscopic compaction bone grafting for massive uncontained bone defects of the greater tuberosity associated with revision rotator cuff repair.
