Abstract
Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is mainly based on 2 proven biomechanical concepts: suture bridge and tension band. This Technical Note describes the use of a combination of these 2 techniques to repair extensive lesions with only 3 anchors. Besides being less expensive, the use of a limited number of anchors is part of a global medicoeconomic and eco-responsible approach to our surgical activities.
