[Rotator sheath ruptures--surgical treatment and results].
Between 1972 and 1982 45 patients with tears of the rotator cuff have been operated in our clinic. 41 of these patients could be controlled at an average of 3.5 years after the operation. According to the applied repair technique the observed patients were divided into three groups. The results were analysed in regard to this classification. A very good and good active movement was achieved in 2/3 of the cases.
