Fatty infiltration in the musculoskeletal system: pathological mechanisms and clinical implications [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Fatty infiltration denotes the anomalous accrual of adipocytes in non-adipose tissue, thereby generating toxic substances with the capacity to impede the ordinary physiological functions of various organs. With aging, the musculoskeletal system undergoes

Risk factors for progression of supraspinatus tear size and fatty infiltration in nonsurgically treated rotator cuff tears [PDF]

JSES Reviews, Reports, and Techniques
Background: There is no clear information on structural changes of rotator cuff tears during nonsurgical management. In particular, the risk factors for the progression of tear size and fatty infiltration still remain poorly understood.

Plantar Heel Pain Is Not Associated With Fatty Infiltration of the Abductor Digiti Minimi Muscle on Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Cross‐Sectional Observational Study [PDF]

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research
Background Fatty infiltration, or fatty atrophy, of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) muscle of the foot is proposed to be associated with entrapment of the first branch of the lateral plantar nerve (i.e., Baxter's neuropathy) as part of plantar heel pain

Pre-operative deltoid fatty infiltration as a predictor of outcomes after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty: a systematic review [PDF]

JSES Reviews, Reports, and Techniques
Background: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) has become an increasingly common surgery to address various pathologies of the shoulder. The deltoid muscle is the primary driver for shoulder movement following rTSA, and its functionality is ...

Electromyography findings in L5 radiculopathy are not associated with fatty infiltration of paraspinal muscles: a retrospective observational study [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionIncreased fatty infiltration of the paraspinal muscles (PM) has been recognized as a sign of decreased muscle quality in patients with degenerative disc disease. However, whether fatty infiltration is a consequence of a neurogenic process due

Preoperative nutritional status and obesity are associated with muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration in degenerative rotator cuff tears [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Rotator cuff tear is a degenerative condition that has been previously linked to metabolic factors such as obesity and diabetes. However, the relationship between patients’ nutritional status and rotator cuff pathology remains unclear.
