Objectives: To analyze the postoperative functional outcome of shoulder in patients with arthroscopically assisted repair of large to massive rotator cuff tears with or without acromioplasty and role of acromioplasty. Materials and Methods: From June 1996 to June 2002, twenty six patients with large to massive rotator cuff tears were undergone arthroscopically assisted repair. Mean follow up was over one year. Fourteen were male and twelve were female. Mean age was 51 years old(39-66). Mean duration was 9 months. Acromioplasty was done in 14 cases concomitantly. They were divided into two groups. Group I: arthroscopic cuff repair with acromioplasty(14 cases). Group II: arthroscopic cuff repair without acromioplasty(12 cases). Each shoulder was evaluated at preoperative and final follow-up with Visual Analogue Scale(VAS), University of Pennsylvania Patient self-assessment of pain, University of Pennsylvania Patient self-assessment of function, ASES standardized shoulder assessment form, Simple Shoulder Test, UCLA score and range of motion(ROM). We analyzed the differences between the two groups. Shoulder ROM and acromioplasty were determining factors. Statistics was tested by correlation analysis and repeated measure ANOVA test. Results: At the final follow up, functional outcome and pain were improved but they had no statistical significance between the two groups(p>0.05). Combined procedure, acromioplasty, didn't affect on VAS. UCLA score, University of Pennsylvania Patient self-assessment of pain, University of Pennsylvania Patient self-assessment of function, ASf:S standardized shoulder assessment form and Simple Shoulder Test(p>0.05). In group II, forward flexion and abduction were statistically improved at the final follow up than in group I(p<0.05). Conclusions: It appears that arthroscopic repair is satisfactory procedure in patients with large to massive cuff tears. Combined procedure, acromioplasty, doesn't affect on postoperative functional outcome of shoulder.

Currently, the literature contains few studies that describe any potential complications following arthroscopic acromioplasty. Because part of the anterior deltoid originates from the anterior acromion, there is a risk for violation and subsequent iatrogenic rupture or avulsion during this procedure. This type of injury can be a devastating problem for patients that may lead to poor function and debilitating pain. We present a patient with deltoid insufficiency following arthroscopic acromioplasty who elected to proceed with operative management with a planned arthroscopic evaluation of the shoulder followed by an open deltoid repair. At the final follow-up visit 2.5 years postoperatively, the patient reported improved pain from baseline and no residual disability and was able to perform most activities of daily living without difficulty. This case serves as an example of a surgical repair for a deltoid avulsion following arthroscopic acromioplasty. As there is still a lack of standard guidelines, our suture repair technique can be considered one method of treatment for this type of injury.

Objectives : To evaluate the effects of arthroscopic acromioplasty and debridement for partial thickness articular side rotator cuff tears, Method: We divided 97 patients into 2 groups according to treatment protocol, with both groups having confirmed intra-articular partial tears of the rotator cuff. In group Ⅰ, we debrided the frayed and fibrotic cuff margin while in group II, we performed subacromial decompression in addition to debridement. After the surgery we checked all the patients with the modified UCLA shoulder rating scale. Results: The follow-up observation 12 months after surgery revealed that 44 patients in group I were rated as excellent in 32 cases, good in 10 cases, fair in 1 case, and poor in one case, while 53 patients in group II, were rated as excellent in 38 cases, good in 17 cases, and fair in 2 cases. Twenty-four month after surgery we observed that patients in group I were rated as excellent in 23 cases, good in 16 cases, fair in 4 cases, and poor in 1 case, while patients in group II were rated as excellent in 34 cases, good in 17 cases, and fair in 6 cases. Conclusion: The use of acromioplasty on partial thickness tears of rotator cuff, even in the cases of intra-articular nature, is preferable to the procedure performed without it.

관절경적 회전근 개 복원술 시에 시행하게 되는 골 처치에는 견봉 성형술, 원위 쇄골 절제술, 건 부착부(대결절 부위) 처치 및 오구 성형술 등이 있다. 각각의 골 처치는 여러 이론적 근거에 의해 적응증을 가지며, 수술방법 또한 다양하게 알려져 있다. 이에 관절경적 회전근 개 복원술 시에 사용되는 여러 골 처치의 적응증 및 방법에 대해 기술하고자 하였다.

목적 :. 만성 견관절 충돌증후군에 대한 수술적 치료로서 사용한 관절경적 전방 견봉 성형술의 치료 결과를 분석하고 임상적 효용성을 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1995년 7월부터 1997년 12월까지 만성 견관절 충돌증후군 환자 중 6개월 이상 보존적 치료에도 불구하고 증상이 호전되지 않아 관절경을 이용하여 전방 견봉 성형술을 시행한 26명의 환자, 27례의 견관절들을 대상으로 하였다. 심한 퇴행성 관절염 회전근 개 전층 파열 및 견관절 비출구 충돌증후군 (nonoutlet impingement) 등은 모두 연구 대상에서 제외하였다. 평균 추시 기간은 2년 3개월(범위, 1년 7개월-3년 11개월)이었다. 임상적인 결과 판정은 UCLA 견관절 평가지수를 이용하였다. 결과 : 27례 중 23례$(85.2\%)$에서 매우 우수 또는 우수한 결과를 보였으며, 4례$(14.8\%)$에서 양호의 결과를 나타내었다. 환자의 만족도는 27례 중 26례$(96.3\%)$에서 주관적인 만족을 나타내었고, 1례 $(3.7\%)$에서 불만족을 나타내었으며 이 경우 Parkinson 증후군과 경추 후종인대 골화증 및 제 5-6번 경추의 척추 협착증이 동반된 환자였다. 결론 : 관절경적 전방 견봉 성형술은 특히 술전 동통의 정도가 술후 현저히 개선되는 등 증상 완화에 우수한 결과를 예상할 수 있는 만성 견관절 충돌증후군의 효율적 치료법이지만, 견관절 및 그 주위의 병변이나 전신 질환 등이 동반될 경우 치료 결과에 영향을 미칠 수 있다.
