Abstract
The management of irreparable rotator cuff tears remains challenging. In patients in whom a complete repair cannot be obtained, a partial repair remains an option. The goal of a partial rotator cuff repair is to obtain a stable glenohumeral joint fulcrum by restoring the rotator cable complex. Traditionally, partial repair has been performed with independent reattachment(s) of the rotator cable complex with or without margin convergence medially. This Technical Note describes an alternative approach to a partial rotator cuff repair with a suture-based cable reconstruction.
