The choice of technique was based on tendon damage severity and patient preference. After a minimum follow-up period of 2 years, postoperative clinical outcomes were compared using the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES); University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA); Constant; and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain scores as well as the shoulder range of motion. The integrity of tendons, acromiohumeral distance, and retear was evaluated through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The mean follow-up times were 35.2 \u00b1 4.2 months for group 1 and 34.1 \u00b1 3.2 months for group 2.
