- Abstract:
- Management of massive irreparable posterior- superior rotator cuff tears is very challenging, particularly in patients who are not candidates for reverse shoulder arthroplasty, such as younger patients, or in transfer (LTTT) those with a high level of activities. We report a case of 60 year old, physiologically active male with a chronic massive posterosuperior cuff tear, managed with arthroscopic assisted lower trapezius tendon.
