Abstract
Arthroscopic implantation of a subacromial spacer for irreparable rotator cuff tear resulted in a noticeable improvement in pain relief and shoulder function at a mean 12.6 months follow up. It is a quick, safe and a minimally invasive procedure that is suitable for elderly patients with irreparable cuff tears and medical co-morbidities.
