Background: Rotator cuff tears are a common and debilitating condition requiring surgical intervention. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is essential for restoring shoulder function and alleviating pain. Tear classification by size and tendon retraction, along with the grade for fatty infiltration, influence postoperative outcomes, with large tears and higher fatty infiltration grades linked to higher retear rates. Managing complex tears is challenging, with failure rates ranging from 20 to 94%. Patch augmentation has emerged as a promising strategy, using biological or synthetic materials to reinforce tendon repairs, enhancing structural integrity and reducing retear risk. Methods: A review of the recent literature from January 2018 to March 2024 was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science. Keywords included “rotator cuff tear”, “rotator cuff augmentation”, “rotator cuff patch”, “tendon augmentation”, “massive rotator cuff tear”, “patch augmentation”, and “grafts”. Relevant articles were selected based on their abstracts for a comprehensive review. Results: Initial methods used autograft tissues, but advances in biomaterials have led to standardized, biocompatible synthetic patches. Studies show reduced retear rates with patch augmentation, ranging from 17 to 45%. Conclusions: Patch augmentation reduces the retear rates and improves tendon repair, but complications like immune responses and infections persist. Cost-effectiveness analyses indicate that while initial costs are higher, long-term savings from reduced rehabilitation, revision surgeries, and increased productivity can make patch augmentation economically beneficial.
