ABSTRACT
Superior capsular reconstruction is a viable option for select patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears. Graft integrity at short- and mid-term follow-up directly correlates with range of motion, functional outcome, and radiographic outcome. Historically, various graft options have been proposed, including dermal allograft, fascia lata autograft, and synthetic graft choices. With a traditional dermal allograft and fascia lata autograft, the graft retear rates have been variably reported. Because of this uncertainty, newer techniques using the healing capabilities of autografts in conjunction with the structural integrity of synthetic materials have emerged in an effort to decrease graft failure rates. Preliminary results are promising; however, longer-term follow-up with head-to-head comparison with traditional techniques is required to understand their true efficacy.
