Effect of Arthroscopic Acromioplasty Combined with Rotator Cuff Repair in the Treatment of Aged Patients with Full-Thickness Rotator Cuff Tear and Rotator Cuff Injury [PDF]

Emergency Medicine International, 2022
Full-thickness rotator cuff tear and rotator cuff injury are frequently occurring diseases and widely exist in the social population. Surgical repair is the most effective treatment for rotator cuff tears and injuries.

Rooting Rotator Cuff Reconstruction for Irreparable Posterior-Superior Rotator Cuff Tear [PDF]

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2021
Irreparable posterior-superior rotator cuff tear is encountered quite often in clinical practice. Bridging the tendon defect with various materials is reasonable. However, optimal bridging structures and techniques are still being pursued. We introduce a

Relationship between rotator cuff posterior delamination and subscapularis tear: a large cross-sectional analysis

JSES International, 2023
Background: Rotator cuff posterior delamination and subscapularis tear are commonly observed in rotator cuff injuries. However, there are very few studies on the relationship between posterior delamination and subscapularis tendon tear.

Poster 174: The Role of Familial Predisposition in Imaging-Confirmed Atraumatic Rotator Cuff Tears

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2022
Objectives: The etiology of rotator cuff tears is not completely understood. Several studies have identified age, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and hypertension as potential risk factors of rotator cuff tears. Limited data suggests the role of

The impact of full-thickness rotator cuff tear on shoulder function and quality of life in patients who sustain a proximal humerus fracture—a prospective cohort study

JSES International, 2022
Background: Only few studies have investigated the impact of rotator cuff integrity on patients with proximal humerus fracture (PHF). We aimed to determine if the presence of a rotator cuff tear impairs shoulder function and health-related quality of ...

Delaminated Rotator Cuff Tear: Concurrent Concept and Treatment [PDF]

Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow, 2019
Delaminated rotator cuff tear pertains to the horizontal split of the tendon substance. As reported previously, the presence of a delaminated tear and incidence of delaminated rotator cuff tear ranges from 38% to 92%.

Revisiting the anatomy of rotator cuff relevant to rotator cuff injury

National Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2020
The rotator cuff is the prime stabilizer of the glenohumeral or shoulder joint. The last decade saw introduction of three components, namely, rotator cable, rotator crescent, and rotator interval of rotator cuff, which were being studied and published in

Superior Capsular Reconstruction With Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair in a “Functional Biologic Augmentation” Technique to Treat Massive Atrophic Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2019
Surgical treatment of patients with massive rotator cuff tears is unpredictable because of a low healing rate and high incidence of clinical failure. Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction has emerged as a promising technique in treating younger ...

Association of damage to the coracohumeral ligament with anterosuperior rotator cuff degeneration revealed by anatomical dissection

Scientific Reports, 2022
The coracohumeral ligament (CHL) is an important structure of the biceps pulley which also merges with the rotator cuff. Which role it actually plays in the pathogenesis of rotator cuff degeneration (RCD) and rotator cuff tears (RCT) is still a point of ...
