Objectives: The authors evaluate the learning of the videoarthroscopic technique, using the video surgery simulator SAM® (Shoulder Arthroscopy Model).
Methods: Twenty medical residents in Orthepaedics, without prior knowledge of the arthroscopic technique, were evaluated before and after training. The tasks consisted of positioning, in holes that simulated portals, four surgical threads attached to an anchor placed in the anatomical neck of the humerus in the synthetic model. Time, number of movements, number of attempts, amount of errors and comparison between the two phases of training before and after - were observed and noted.
Results: The data was submitted to statistical analysis, and a significant difference was found in the comparison of the variables before and after the training.
Conclusion: The result of this study enables us to conclude that training in the videoarthroscopic technique using the video surgery simulator SAM enables the surgeon to execute essential tasks involved in these techniques, in less time, making less mistakes, and developing the ability to deal better with the videoarthrocopic image.

To analyze the functional outcomes in patients submitted to videoarthroscopic surgical treatment for compleat rotator cuff tears of the shoulder, with a minimum follow-up of 10 years. A total of 63 patients (63 shoulders) underwent videoarthroscopic surgical repair for compleat rotator cuff tears with a minimum follow-up of 10 years. The postoperative functional outcomes of these patients were evaluated using the Constant and University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) scores.
