This retrospective study compared all-arthroscopic versus mini-open rotator cuff repair in 64 shoulders over an average 44.6-month follow-up. The central question: does eliminating the mini-open incision change functional outcomes or complication rates? Tear sizes ranged from small (<1 cm) to large (3-5 cm); massive tears were excluded.
