Clinical and Structural Outcome After Early Repair of the Traumatic Rotator Cuff Tear

Full Thickness Rotator Cuff Tear Clinical Trial

Official title:
Arthroscopic Repair of Traumatic Rotator Cuff Tears. A Prospective Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The optimal timing for surgical repair of traumatic rotator cuff tears is controversial. Today there are no prospective studies investigating the short to mid-term outcome after early arthroscopic repair of traumatic rotator cuff tears and the Swedish National Musculoskeletal Competence Centre requests more research to this subject. The investigators will follow 60 patients with acute rotator cuff tear undergoing early rotator cuff repair during the first year after surgery.

The investigators hypothesise that the outcome after rotator cuff repair is good.

Clinical Trial Description

There exists controversy in the current literature regarding timing for surgical repair of traumatic rotator cuff tears. We have seen no prospective studies describing the progression of shoulder function improvement the first year after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

We hypothesize that early arthroscopic repair of traumatic rotator cuff tears yields successful functional and structural outcomes but there will be a progression of shoulder function improvement during the hole first postoperative year. ;
