| Background Rotator cuff lesions are one of the causes of shoulder pain. Surgical treatment has been increasingly indicated. Purpose The aim of this work is to compare the clinical outcome and tendon healing after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair either by modified Mason-Allen suture bridge technique or double-row suture stitch technique. Patients and methods During the period between August 2021 and July 2022, a prospective clinical study was conducted involving 20 patients with symptomatic rotator cuff tear, who underwent arthroscopic repair. These patients were managed by the modified Mason-Allen suture bridge technique and double-row suture. This study conducted in the Benha University Hospitals, Nasr City Insurance Hospital and the military production hospital. Results The current study revealed no statistically significant difference between groups according to demographic factors such as age, sex and side, with P value more than 0.05. There was statistically significant higher change in group A: modified Mason-Allen suture bridge compared with group B: double-row according to constant score, with P value less than 0.05 (significant). Conclusion This study proved that there is statistically significant difference between the modified Mason-Allen suture bridge technique versus double row in functional outcome and integrity of rotator cuff tendon healing with relative advantage to the modified Mason-Allen suture bridge technique. | ||||
