How Rotator Cuff Repair is performed
Based on imaging and assessment, select a plan according to the size of the tear and tissue quality. The common practice is to complete it arthroscopically: trim the torn edges and prepare the bone surface, suture the tendon back to the attachment area with suture anchors, and perform release, decompression, or reinforcement if necessary. Postoperative use of a sling and monitoring of pain and shoulder function aims to heal the tendon and restore activity. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist assessment and hospital protocols.
