Prospective Cohort Study on the Outcome of Greenhouse Tec in the Arthroscopic Treatment of Small to Medium Rotator Cuff Tear
This study is aprospective cohort study on the outcome of a combination of bone marrow
 stimulation and modified suture bridge in the arthroscopic treatment of small and medium
 rotator cuff tear. The patients with small to medium rotator cuff injuries (less than 3cm in
 diameter) requiring arthroscopic surgery were collected. The patients were followed up before
 and 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery, including pain, functional
 score, joint range of motion, MRI and CT findings, complications and other quantitative and
 qualitative indicators. The self-control and intra group analysis were performed to evaluate
 the treatment effect; and the correlation analysis was performed on the treatment results To
 determine the important factors affecting the therapeutic effect.
Inclusion Criteria:

 subscapular injury

 -  Unable or unwilling to receive clinical follow-up
