Work-related outcomes of revision rotator cuff repair for patients receiving workers' compensation.

Background: Workers' compensation (WC) patients are susceptible to poorer outcomes following primary rotator cuff repair (RCR). Failure of structural healing can explain some poor results, and outcomes of revision RCR in this population are unknown.

Methods: A retrospective review was performed of individuals receiving WC who underwent arthroscopic revision RCR with or without dermal allograft augmentation at a single institution between January 2010 and April 2021.
