Previous studies have shown that even when following standard sterilization protocols, the positive culture rate of Cutibacterium acnes can still be as high as 30%. In recent years, several studies have reported that preoperative skin preparation of the shoulder, such as applying benzoyl peroxide (BPO) to the skin, can effectively reduce the cutaneous bacterial load of C. acnes and even decrease its incidence in the shoulder joint or surgical sutures after surgery. However, most of the existing studies have focused on arthroplasty, and robust evidence regarding contamination in rotator cuff surgery remains lacking.

The findings will help guide future clinical practice in preoperative preparation. This study will adopt a
