Anterior latissimus dorsi (LD) transfer has shown effective results in treating these tears without glenohumeral arthritis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Purpose\/Hypothesis:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study introduces and evaluates fully arthroscopic and arthroscopically assisted anterior LD transfer techniques for reconstructing irreparable SSC tears.

Indications for surgery included persistent shoulder pain and functional limitations unresponsive to nonoperative treatment, irreparable SSC tears (Lafosse grade \u22654), significant fatty infiltration (Goutallier grade \u22653), and minimal glenohumeral arthritis (Hamada stage &lt;3). Patients were excluded if they had &lt;2 years of follow-up or if data were lost. For comparison, the study divided patients into 2 groups based on the surgical methods: fully arthroscopic LD tendon transfer and arthroscopically assisted LD tendon transfer. Clinical assessments included pain levels (visual analog scale), Constant score, Subjective Shoulder Value score, and range of motion. Radiologic measurement and complications were assessed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The study included 34 patients (mean \u00b1 SD age, 62.4 \u00b1 7.5 years; follow-up, 35.4 \u00b1 15.9 months).
