Figure 1. (A) Nonabsorbable sutures are placed at the junction of the tendon-tuberosity interface and are not through the tuberosities. (B) Once the native humeral head is removed, the tuberosities with their respective rotator cuff attachments are mobilized for humeral canal preparation and later repair.
