An anatomic and tension-free repair is the goal of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. However, this purpose is not always achievable in large and massive tears, and sometimes, even when intraoperative results seem acceptable, clinical and radiologic outcomes can be disappointing shortly afterward. Superior capsule reconstruction has been claimed as a valid and viable joint-preserving option for treating irreparable rotator cuff tears. However, the role of the superior capsule in repairable cuff tears has also been questioned. The aim of this article is to present the so-called arthroscopic cuff-plus technique. This technique consists of superior capsule reconstruction using the proximal part of the long head of the biceps tendon associated with a tension-free repair of the rotator cuff tendons in large to massive delaminated tears.
