Effects of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair on isokinetic muscle function 6-months following surgery: influence of tear type, tear size and tendon retraction

Rotator cuff tears are a common musculoskeletal condition which can lead to functional limitations and impairments in quality of life. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of arthroscopic repair surgery on isokinetic muscle function before and 6-months after surgery. Additionally, the mediating effects of tear type, tear size and tendon retraction were examined.
