Superior capsule reconstruction has gained popularity as a treatment option for massive rotator cuff tears. The initial graft described was a tensor fascia lata. In the United States, acellular dermal matrix or dermal allograft has gained popularity. The results from published reports have been promising, but graft tear on postoperative imaging has been reported in several studies. Strives are being made to reduce the graft tear rate. One such way is to increase the thickness of the graft. Biomechanical studies have shown that thicker and stiffer grafts perform better in restoring superior stability. We present a technique of doubling a commercially available 3 mm dermal allograft and making it into a 6 mm graft for superior capsule reconstruction.
