Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Rotator cuff debridement + acromioplasty
Group A was formed by performing rotator cuff debridement + acromioplasty in 18 patients.
Two intervention was planned. Rotator cuff debridement + acromioplasty group is mentioned as Group A (18 patients) and augmentation with subacromial bursa + acromioplasty is Group B
Active Comparator: Augmentation with subacromial bursa + acromioplasty
Group B was formed by performing augmentation with subacromial bursa + acromioplasty in 22 patients.
Two intervention was planned. Rotator cuff debridement + acromioplasty group is mentioned as Group A (18 patients) and augmentation with subacromial bursa + acromioplasty is Group B
