Comparison of Clinical Outcomes Between Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair and Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty in Patients With Massive Rotator Cuff Tears and High-Grade Fatty Atrophy Without Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis
Both ARCR and RSA improved functional outcomes in patients with MRCT without GHOA. While healing was moderate after ARCR, the postoperative ROM was greater after ARCR compared with RSA in appropriately selected patients. Moreover, healed rotator cuffs demonstrated improved postoperative FF compared with unhealed repairs.
