An HPL is created using an outside-in technique and the needle should be seen passing obliquely in a superolateral–inferomedial direction. This angulation preserves the lateral bursal attachment and provides an unobstructed view of the rotator cuff tear (C) and bursa for further repair. (AC, acromion, left shoulder; HPL, high posterolateral portal.)
