Abstract
The overall failure rate of rotator cuff healing after primary repair is high and is even greater in revision cases. This worrisome outcome has spurred the development and use of biological materials to help promote healing potentials. This Technical Note describes an all-arthroscopic technique for the application of a bioinductive collagen patch to augment subscapularis full-thickness tear repair. We describe in detail a stepwise approach to guide surgeons in patient positioning, portal placement, diagnostic arthroscopy, graft preparation, deployment, and fixation.
