Background: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with biceps rerouting (ABR) has emerged as a reliable option for treating large posterosuperior rotator cuff tears (RCTs). This study aims to compare functional and structural outcomes of early vs. delayed motion rehabilitation protocols following ABR.

- - The study evaluated the effectiveness of acellular human dermal allograft (HDA) augmentation in preventing retears and improving shoulder function in patients with large to massive rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic repair.
- - Results showed that patients with HDA augmentation experienced significantly better pain relief, shoulder function, range of motion, and satisfaction compared to those without augmentation over an average follow-up of 20 months.
- - Notably, the retear rate in the HDA group was only 5.6%, compared to 29.1% in the group without augmentation, highlighting the potential benefits of using HDA in surgery.
