OBJECTIVE: To analyze the results from arthroscopic suturing of large and extensive @entity717 , according to the @entity1 's degree of @entity2331 . METHOD: 138 @entity1 who underwent arthroscopic suturing of large and extensive @entity717 between 2003 and 2011 were analyzed. Those operated from October 2008 onwards formed a prospective cohort, while the remainder formed a retrospective cohort. Also from October 2008 onwards, bone densitometry evaluation was requested at the time of the surgical treatment. For the @entity1 operated before this date, densitometry examinations performed up to two years before or after the surgical treatment were investigated. The @entity1 were divided into three groups. Those with @entity170 formed group 1 (n  =  16); those with @entity2331 , group 2 (n  =  33); and normal individuals, group 3 (n  =  55). RESULTS: In analyzing the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) scores of group 3 and comparing them with group 2, no statistically significant difference was seen (p  =  0.070). Analysis on group 3 in comparison with group 1 showed a statistically significant difference (p  =  0.027). CONCLUSION: The results from arthroscopic suturing of large and extensive @entity717 seem to be influenced by the @entity1 's bone mineral density, as assessed using bone densitometry.
