Ultrasound-determined healing rates with subscapularis tenotomy versus peel after anatomic shoulder arthroplasty

We observed that subscapularis tenotomy had a higher healing rate than peel as determined by ultrasound in TSA patients. There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative tendon thickness in intact tendons as measured on ultrasound when comparing subscapularis mobilization techniques, nor was there any association between healing status and internal rotation function or elbow position.
