Arthroscopic repair of large SSC tears has shown promising structural outcomes for type III tears but not type IV tears. SSC retear was affected by SSC atrophy, as well as SSP tear size and atrophy. Approximately one-third of the final poor clinical outcomes could be predicted, and SSC retear, SSP retear, and female sex were associated with long-term poor clinical outcomes, underscoring the importance of carefully selecting patients for arthroscopic repair of large SSC tears.
