What is it about?
Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging results three years after superior capsular reconstruction performed in patients who had their rotator cuff tendons torn and were irreparable.

Why is it important?
These are the longest follow-up results available in the literature on this minimally invasive technique of superior capsular reconstruction using a graft harvested from the patients' thigh
Perspectives
We are very happy with the long term clinical and imaging follow-up of our patients who had this severe and debilitating shoulder lesion but gained quality of life after this complex yet minimally invasive procedure.
