Clinical results of reverse shoulder arthroplasty after failed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to primary cases: a case control study

Although reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is a popular treatment, its efficacy in patients with failed rotator cuff repair (ARCR) remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical results of RSA for following failed ARCR. We hypothesized that RSA after failed ARCR would lead to improved clinical outcomes comparable to those of RSA performed without prior surgeries.
