Thank you so much for this information

When I was 17 (11 years ago) I had a major shoulder repair surgery with my rotator cuff. All I remember afterwards is my surgeon/Dr telling me that he wished he had done the surgery sooner and it was way worse than he had ever expected. I had 7 anchors put in then and 1.5lbs of scar tissue taken out. It still to this day isn’t the same

I am 8 months post op from arthroscopic knotless double row repair to supraspinatus. 2x PEEK Healicoil anchors internal row, and 2x PEEK Multifix anchors external row. Also had arthroscopic single row repair on Subscapularis using Q-Fix All Suture anchors X2. My question is, are all types of anchors equal or are some superior? Does the patient's pathology also determine anchor selection? Thank you for your videos.

@rotatorcuffexpert

Good question. Those anchors are all made by Smith-Nephew. They are different as they do different jobs and are in different areas of bone. For example the Q-fix is better in the area of bone where the subscapularis attaches as its hard cortical bone and minimal cancellous bone. The healicoil anchor holds better in more cancellous bone which is found in the area where the supraspinatus attaches. I Hope the way I explained it makes some sense!

Yes! It was a full tear & appeared like a "torn ragged edge of a curtain" to me. And the other tear that was not full thickness was repaired at the same time. When I asked my doc about the 4 anchors being used he said that was how many he prefers on a full thickness tear of that size. He cleaned up the edge of the tear & reattached. I am at 13 weeks, but about 7-8 weeks in I swear I felt like a puppet in that the shoulder joint made crinkly creeky type audible sounds when I raised & lowered it! And when me or my husband put his hand on it while I did it you could feel this!!! So strange. No pain associated. It went away in about a week and a half. It was everyone's opinion that it would diminish as my muscles got stronger around the area & the scar tissue broke up a bit. Dunno but that was very wierd for sure. So yes; during that time I was super careful not to overdo it. But kept up with PT exercises.

Yes Batman, a thin rotator cuff is more difficult because the sutures can tear through it. You can get an idea of the quality of the tendon on the MRI, however during surgery is the only real way to know for sure. Hope this helps. As far as suturing the muscle, that is typically not done.
