Arthroscopy. 2019 Aug;35(8):2293-2294. doi: 10.1016/j.arthro.2019.05.017.

Abstract

Cysts or radiolucent rings are relatively common around suture anchors after rotator cuff repair. The rate of cyst occurrence is similar across anchor types and materials. Generally, perianchor cysts are benign and can be regarded as not affecting clinical outcomes.
