September 21, 2023 updated by: Mohamed Ashraf Abdallah

Skillful Neglect Vs Repair For Upper Border Subscapularis Tear Associated With Posterosuperior Cuff Tears Repair In Non-Athletes: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to compare functional outcomes of Skillful Neglect & arthroscopic repair of upper border subscapularis tear in La fosse type 1 and type 2 with biceps tenotomy in non-athletes,30 shoulders subdivided randomly into 2 groups, 15 patients in group 1 (patient treated by skillful neglect with biceps tenotomy) and 15 patients in group 2 (patients treated by arthroscopic repair with biceps tenotomy)

Study Overview

Detailed Description

patients are randomized chosen then a shoulder arthroscope is done for all patients with biceps tenotomy but in group1 the investigators are neglecting the upper border tears and in group 2 the investigators are repairing upper border tears with anchors then after the procedure is completed the investigators will follow up by ASES score

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: group 1 (patient treated by skillful neglect with biceps tenotomy)
neglect of upper border subscapularis tear and doing biceps tenotomy

The following technique will be utilized for confirm isolated or combined upper subscapularis border partial tear conservative treatment which is considered the standard technique.

  • Semisetting position under GA.
  • Standard shoulder arthroscopy with standard portals for RC repair.
  • Inspection of articular surface of rotator cuff and biceps tendon.
  • Bursectomy, visualization of all rotators.
  • Mobilization is done for associated rotator tears by shaver and radiofrequency device.
  • Both preoperative Statistics randomization that is used to determine which case will be repaired and intraoperative loss of tension of the elongated aspect of the tendon are used to confirm diagnosis and treatment of upper subscapularis border tear.
  • Skillful neglect to the tear.
  • Rotator repair technique by RC anchors
  • Biceps Tenotomy will be done in all cases by cutting of LHBT.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
american shoulder elbow score
Time Frame: after 6months and 12 months
scale that evaluates two dimensions of shoulder function: pain and performance in activities of daily living. Each of the two domains make up for 50 of the 100 points.
after 6months and 12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visual analogue score
Time Frame: Post operative 6months and 12 months
subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain."
Post operative 6months and 12 months
