Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study
A prospective, randomized evaluation of acellular human dermal matrix augmentation for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
To prospectively evaluate the safety and effectiveness of arthroscopic acellular human dermal matrix augmentation of large rotator cuff tear repairs. ⋯ Level II, lesser-quality randomized controlled trial.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Clinical outcome and imaging of arthroscopic single-row and double-row rotator cuff repair: a prospective randomized trial.
The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and imaging outcomes of single-row and double-row suture anchor fixation in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with emphasis on analysis of the effect of various tear size on repair integrity. ⋯ Level II, lesser-quality randomized control trial.

The aims of this study were to evaluate the anatomic feasibility of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using a part of the adductor magnus tendon and to identify possible risks. ⋯ Anatomic knowledge is essential during adductor magnus tendon harvest to avoid damage to neurovascular structures. The adductor magnus tendon is an interesting alternative graft option for MPFL reconstruction if anatomic dangers are considered and avoided.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Vertical versus horizontal suture configuration for the repair of isolated type II SLAP lesion through a single anterior portal: a randomized controlled trial.
To compare the clinical and functional outcomes of the repair of an isolated type II SLAP lesion by 2 different configuration techniques (vertical v horizontal suture) through a single anterior portal. ⋯ Level I, randomized controlled trial.
