METHODS: In this study we evaluated 59 shoulders (31 left, 28 right) of 58 patients (39 female, 19 male) preoperatively and postoperatively with Constant score, UCLA score and VAS score. Mean age was 51.7 (25-74) years and the mean follow-up period was 28.6 (12-44) months. RESULTS: Preoperatively the mean Constant score was 41 (34-56), VAS score (0-100) was 70 (60-90). Postoperatively the mean Constant score was 84 (75-95) and VAS score was 14 (0-30). For UCLA scoring 44 patients have excellent, 15 patients have good results.
