Pain, range of motion, and function all significantly improved after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using the suture-bridge technique, regardless of the presence of diabetes. However, sustained hyperglycemia increased the possibility of anatomic failure at the repaired cuff. In diabetic patients, an effective glycemic control was associated with better rate of healing after rotator cuff repair.

In approximately 80% of the intra-articular biceps tears evaluated in this study, a "hidden lesion" was observed going beyond the bicipital groove and extending to the distal extra-articular portion. Therefore, the subpectoral portion may be considered the optimal tenodesis site for the complete removal of all hidden biceps lesions.
