Comparison of Outcomes between Open and Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair.

The study suggests that, while there are no significant differences in terms of clinical outcomes between the two surgical methods, short-term pain levels may be influenced by the more frequent application of acromioplasty in arthroscopic methods. Therefore, the choice of the surgical method should be made based on the unique characteristics, including the location and size, the patient's overall health status, and the surgeon's experience. These findings should be used as a guide and not as absolute results.
