Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients aged 60 years or older who are scheduled for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair due to a full-thickness rotator cuff tear of 1 cm or larger on preoperative MRI and who have consented to participate in the study.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with concomitant neurological issues (e.g., cervical nerves, brachial plexus) causing upper extremity weakness, which prevents accurate muscle strength measurement. 2. Patients deemed unable to undergo accurate muscle strength measurement due to upper extremity pain (e.g., cases where accurate handgrip strength measurement is judged impossible due to severe hand arthritis). 3. Cases judged difficult to participate in the study due to cognitive impairment. 4. Cases with systemic diseases that can cause chronic muscle wasting. 5. Cases undergoing revision surgery due to failure or complications of the primary surgery.
