Editorial Commentary: Rotator Cuff Repair: How Much Tension Can a Tendon Stand? If It Hurts My Finger, It's Probably Hurting the Tendon

Leslie J. Bisson

Abstract: Rotator cuff repairs may fail anatomically because of greater-than-needed tension to approximate the tendon to the greater tuberosity during repair. Surgeons should make every effort to minimize the tension when reapproximating a torn rotator cuff.
