The survival probability of rotator cuff repairs has not been published in a time-dependent manner up to now.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Hypotheses: Recurrent tears occur more frequently in the early postoperative period. Early failures of the repair are a prognostic factor for the long-term outcome.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods: A series of 107 consecutive patients undergoing arthroscopically assisted mini-open repair of the rotator cuff between 1998 and 2002 were evaluated in a prospective study. Of these, 95 patients finished the study after a maximum follow-up of 11 years. The evaluation included 1 postoperative magnetic resonance imaging scan as well as multiple ultrasonographies and determinations of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) and Constant scores at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and then yearly with a median follow-up of 96 months.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    Results: The overall failure rate was 33% (35 of 107). The survivorship analysis revealed that 74% of all failures occurred atraumatically in the first 3 months and 11% occurred between the third and the sixth month after the repair. The remaining reruptures (14%) happened 2 to 5 years postoperatively and were related to sports activities or direct trauma. The overall clinical results did not deteriorate over time.

The parameters \u201crecurrent tear\u201d as well as \u201chealed tendon\u201d evaluated at 6 months postoperatively appear to be predictors for the clinical outcomes at 7 years. Efforts to improve healing during the initial 3 months have long-term implications for maintenance of cuff integrity and clinical
