How Much Does Rotator Cuff Surgery Cost?

The cost of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair varies wildly based on one primary metric: the number of imported suture anchors required to fix down the tear.

Factors Determining Rotator Cuff Repair Cost

Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is a meticulous procedure requiring leading-edge technology. The total cost of the surgery in Egypt is primarily dictated by the size and complexity of the tendon tear.

The Anchor Variable

During surgery, Dr. Mohamed Labib utilizes bio-composite "suture anchors" — high-end implants that embed into the humerus bone and contain high-strength threads used to securely tie the torn tendon back to its anatomical footprint.

Small Tear

1 to 2 Suture Anchors

Lowest implant cost. Basic single row repair.

Most Common

Medium Tear

2 to 3 Suture Anchors

Standard cost. Typically single row or simple double row repair.

Massive Tear

4+ Suture Anchors

Highest implant cost. Requires a complex "double-row" bridging technique.

Because these anchors are imported premium medical devices (e.g., from US or European manufacturers like Arthrex or Smith & Nephew), the exact number required will ultimately scale the final operating room bill. An MRI review provides an accurate estimate prior to surgery.
