Resumen:
Purpose: To compare knotted and knotless transosseous equivalent (TOE) rotator cuff repair (RCR) techniques and evaluate their imaging-diagnosed retear rates.Methods: The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PubMed (2008 to 2019), EMBASE (2008 to 2019), and Medline (2008 to 2019) were used to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) criteria, with the following search terms: rotator cuff repair AND (knotless OR knotted) AND transosseous; rotator cuff repair AND (knotless OR knotted or transosseous); rotator cuff repair AND ("suture bridge" OR "suture bridging"). Data pertaining to demographic characteristics, surgical techniques, retears, and patient-reported outcomes were extracted from each study. Rates and locations of retear were reported using ranges, and risks of bias and heterogeneity for each study were assessed.Results: A total of 7 studies (552 shoulders) were included. Patients had a weighted mean (± standard deviation) age of 60.5 ± 2.4 years with 27.8 ± 7.9-month follow-up. The incidence of retears ranged from 5.1% to 33.3% in patients treated with knotless TOE RCR, and the incidence for patients treated with knotted TOE RCR ranged from 7.5% to 25%. The incidence of type I retears ranged from 42.9% to 100% for patients treated with knotless TOE RCR and 20% to 100% for patients treated with knotted TOE RCR. The incidence of type II retears ranged from 0% to 57.1% in patients treated with knotless TOE RCR and 0% to 100% in patients treated with knotted TOE RCR.Conclusions: The incidence and location of retears after knotless and knotted TOE RCR appear to be similar.
