NCT01039571

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether double row repair is better in healing than traditional single row repair in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Our null hypothesis is there are no differences in clinical and structural results

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Retear rate in each group(single row repair group and double row repair group)

    MRI after 6 months from surgery

Interventions

double row repair for torn rotator cuff were performed to compare with the conventional single row repair

Also known as: dual row repair
