A total of 136 patients underwent LDTT for irreparable posterosuperior mRCTs without previous RCR, whereas 122 underwent LDTT for failed RCR. All intra- and postoperative complications were noted, as well as whether patients required conversion to reverse shoulder arthroplasty. At a minimum follow-up of 24 months, an independent observer collected the range of motion and clinical scores including the Constant score, Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), Simple Shoulder Test, Activities of Daily Living requiring Active External Rotation (ADLER) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and pain on visual analog scale (VAS).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      At a minimum follow-up of 2 years after LDTT, no significant differences were noted between shoulders treated for mRCTs versus failed RCR in terms of rates of conversion to reverse shoulder arthroplasty (3% vs 3%, respectively), LDTT tear (8% vs 10%), or other complications (10% vs 11%). Shoulders treated for mRCTs had significantly better outcomes than those treated for failed RCR, in terms of ASES score (75.8 \u00b1 19.5 vs 65.6 \u00b1 24.2, respectively;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .002), ADLER score (26.3 \u00b1 5.7 vs 24.8 \u00b1 6.4;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .003), SSV (72.3 \u00b1 19.8 vs 63.6 \u00b1 24.0;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .004), and pain on VAS (1.8 \u00b1 2.0 vs 2.7 \u00b1 2.7;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .018) but not in terms of Constant score (69.2 \u00b1 13.4 vs 66.4 \u00b1 16.3,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .520) and range of motion (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .360-.700).
