Technical Pearls and Pitfalls of Superior Capsular Reconstruction Using Doubled Acellular Dermal Allograft

Pearls Pitfalls
Short sides of rectangular acromial graft correspond to anteroposterior of acromion. Care must be taken in patients with previous subacromial decompression (adequate edges with drilling of acromion).
Ensure 5 mm from each edge when passing suture. Sutures should exit same side of the graft.
No. 2 FiberWire suture.
Ensure 5 mm from each edge of acromion when drilling.
