![]() 0008) and 7.60 mm 2 years after surgery (P <. Mean acromial-humeral distance improved from 4.50 mm before surgery to 8.48 mm immediately after surgery (P <. 11), and mean VAS pain score was 3.00 (P <. For the historical controls at final follow-up, mean ASES score was 70.71 (P =. ![]() 00002), from 43.54 to 86.46, and mean VAS pain score decreased significantly (P <. From before surgery to 2 years after surgery, mean ASES score improved significantly (P <. Patients were compared before and after surgery and against historical controls who underwent repair of massive RCTs. At minimum 2-year follow-up (mean, 32.38 months), the patients were prospectively evaluated on the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) shoulder index, a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, acromial-humeral distance, and ultrasonography. In this article, we discuss 9 cases of irreparable rotator cuff tears managed with arthroscopic SCR with dermal allograft. Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) is performed to reduce the pain and disability caused by irreparable supraspinatus rotator cuff tears (RCTs).
