In the video, the speaker discusses the use of grafts or patches for massive tears in rotator cuffs. They point out the high re-tear rates in large and massive tears and the need for better treatment options for younger patients without arthritis. The speaker mentions their own experience with grafts in these cases and the potential benefits of using grafts for interposition or subscapularis augmentation. They highlight several studies that show promising results with graft augmentation, including lower re-tear rates and improved patient outcomes. However, they also note the importance of considering graft thickness and the need for further research in the field. Overall, the speaker suggests that grafts can be a valuable tool in treating massive tears in certain cases. No credits were mentioned in the transcript.
