Editorial Commentary: Arthroscopic Subscapularis Repair: Are We Any Further Forward?

Arthroscopic repair is a well-established treatment option for tears of the subscapularis tendon. However, it is clear that to further our understanding, additional study is required to more clearly define the influence of tear morphology, repair type, and associated pathologies and procedures on outcomes. It should be noted that there is rather sparse literature reporting long-term outcomes —10 years or more—after surgery. Future studies should focus on these aspects and use validated and widely used outcome measures to detect important differences and allow comparison with previous studies.
