There were no infectious and neurovascular complications. The mean Constant scale score increased from 32.3 to 63.1 (P&lt;0.001), and the ASES scale score – from 26.4 to 69.2 (P&lt;0.001), reaching the minimal clinically significant difference in all observations. Pseudoparesis resolved in 23 of 29 (79.3%) patients, including 12 patients with loss of active shoulder external rotation. Symmetrical scapular rhythm was restored in 46 (68.7%) patients. An inverse weak correlation was found between the acromiohumeral interval, active flexion deficit before surgery, as well as the patient's body mass index and postoperative Constant scores. The mean postoperative Constant score was significantly lower in patients with preoperative pseudoparesis (P=0.012). In overweight patients with an index greater than 35, the Constant score was also significantly lower (P=0.273). The risk of unssatisfaction with the treatment outcome was higher in patients over 65 years of age, with a body mass index greater than 35, an acromiohumeral interval less than 6 mm, or shoulder arthropathy greater than stage II.</p> <p><italic>Conclusion.</italic> Fully arthroscopic transfer of the latissimus dorsi and teres major muscles is effective in treating patients with massive and irreparable posterior-superior rotator cuff defects, with no inferiority in functional outcomes but a lower risk of infectious complications than arthroscopically assisted transfer.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><italic>Актуальность:</italic> Лечение пациентов с массивными трудновосстановимыми дефектами манжеты ротаторов является сложной и не решенной проблемой. </p> <p><italic>Цель исследования:</italic> изучить функциональные исходы лечения пациентов, которым была выполнена полностью артроскопическая транспозиция большой круглой и широчайшей мышц спины.</p> <p><italic>Дизайн исследования: </italic>наблюдательное<italic> </italic>когортное<italic> </italic>ретроспективное<italic>.</italic></p> <p><italic>Объект исследования:</italic> 67 пациентов, которым выполнили артроскопическую транспозицию большой круглой и широчайшей мышц спины.</p> <p><italic>Методы.</italic> Исследовали показатели шкал Constant, ASES и ВАШ, амплитуду движений и лопаточный ритм, а также удовлетворенность пациентов.

Инфекционных и нейроваскулярных осложнений не было. Средний показатель шкалы Constant увеличились с 32,3 [27,5; 39,1] (от 21 до 46, Me 34,4) до 63,1 [57,8; 72,2] (от 49 до 97, Me 65,2) (P&lt;0,001), а шкалы ASES – c 26,4 [20,9; 31,4] (от 13 до 37, Me 26,1) до 69,2 [61,3; 77,8] (от 53 до 100, Me 70,1) (P&lt;0,001), достигнув минимального клинически значимого различия во всех наблюдениях. У 23 из 29 (79,3%) пациентов разрешился псевдопарез, включая 12 пациентов с утратой активной наружной ротации плеча. Восстановление симметричного лопаточного ритма произошло у 46 (68,7%) пациентов. Была обнаружена обратная слабая корреляционная связь между величиной акромиально-плечевого интервала, дефицитом активного сгибания конечности перед операцией, а также индексом массы тела пациента и послеоперационными показателями шкалы Constant. Среднее послеоперационное значение Constant у пациентов с наличием перед операцией псевдопареза было достоверно меньше (P=0,012). При избыточной массе тела пациентов с индексом более 35 показатель Constant также был значимо меньше (P=0,273). Риск неудовлетворенности результатом лечения был выше у пациентов старше 65 лет, с индексом массы тела более 35, акромиально-плечевым интервалом менее 6 мм или артропатией плечевого сустава более II ст.</p> <p><italic>Заключение.</italic> Полностью артроскопическая транспозиция широчайшей и большой круглой мышц спины эффективна при лечении пациентов с массивными трудновосстановимыми задне-верхними дефектами манжеты ротаторов, не уступает по функциональным исходам, но с меньшим риском инфекционных осложнений, чем артроскопически-ассистированный трансфер.</p></trans-abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="zh"><p/></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>massive, irreparable rotator cuff tear, rotator cuff injury, latissimus dorsi transfer, teres major transfer, shoulder arthroscopy, muscle atrophy, fatty infiltration, arthropathy</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>массивный трудновосстановимый разрыв манжеты ротаторов, повреждение вращательной манжеты плеча, трансфер широчайшей мышцы спины, трансфер большой круглой мышцы, мышечно-сухожильная транспозиция, артроскопия плечевого сустава, мышечная атрофия, жировая инфильтрация, артропатия</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>1.
