Sumario: | Rotator cuff tears remain a common injury, and may require rotator cuff repair, one of the most frequently performed orthopaedic procedures. Achieving an ideal construct during rotator cuff repair is crucial, and while many techniques exist to accomplish this, they are continuously evolving to improve stability and biomechanics of the repaired shoulder. Improving efficiency of the procedure alongside the increasing complexity of innovative techniques remains of the utmost importance. The double-pulley SpeedBridge technique achieves medial fixation in a double-row, transosseus-equivalent repair, and the knotless nature of the technique creates for a low-profile construct and improves overall efficiency. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a reproducible and efficient approach to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using the SpeedBridge knotless double-pulley technique. |
