Rotator Cuff Repair

Shoulder pain, weakness from tears

Why do get this surgery?

What does the surgeon do in the surgery?

Rotator cuff repair reattaches torn shoulder tendons using arthroscopy, a minimally invasive technique with small incisions and a camera. Ideal for tears causing chronic pain or weakness, the procedure involves anchoring tendons to bone with sutures or biodegradable anchors. Double-row stitching improves durability for large tears.
Recovery includes 4–6 weeks in a sling and 6 months of PT to regain strength. Advances like superior capsular reconstruction offer alternatives for irreparable damage.
