Pain level
Assessed by Visual analog scale : used to assess acute pain particularly effective post-operatively for tracking individual progress . The patients mark their current pain level on a 100 mm horizontal line anchored by verbal descriptors . Scoring is : 0 for No symptoms , 10 for very severe symptoms
3 time intervals ( pre , within 1 week post , 3 months post )
shoulder function
Will be Assessed by Arabic version of American Shoulder and Elbow Suregeons and Constant Score questionnares \* American shoulder and Elbow Surgeons used to evaluate shoulder function and pain . Patient answer 10 daily activity questions each scored from 0 ( unable) to 3 (normal function ) while the pain assessed by visual analog scale Pain scaore is converted to another 50 point Score total is 100 points ( 50 pain + 50 function ) Higher scores is indication for better shoulder function \* Constant score used to assess shoulder function recovery . It has 2 sections : 1)subjective : 35 points : patient reports on pain and daily activity ability. 2)objective : 65 points : clinical measures for range of motion and strength Grading : pain + activities 0\_35 points Range of motion +strength 0\_65 points Strength is measured as 1 point per pound lifted for 5 sec ..25 points Score total is 100 points .. The higher is better

Forearm supination strength

Patients will be grouped according to their surgical intervention combined with the rotator cuff repair by orthopaedic surgeon. They will be assessed at 3 times interval ( preoperative , within 1 week post operative and after 3 months ).To identify its effect on rehabilitation outcomes in comparison to patients with biceps tenodesis .

is a precision instrument used to measure isometric grip strength. It is widely recognized in clinical research as the "gold standard" for assessing hand strength and general upper-body physical function due to its high test-retest reliability and inter-instrument validity.
Registry-reported names are shown in full. Names without a link have not yet been matched to a Syfrah profile.
50 all gender patients with rotator cuff tear , they will be selected based on inclusion criteria and allocated based on type of surgery either combined with long head of biceps tenotomy or tenodesis . They will be grouped according to their surgical intervention by orthopaedic surgeon into 2 cohorts . 25 patients for biceps tenotomy and 25 patients for biceps tenodesis .
