Differences in Risk Factors for Rotator Cuff Tears between Elderly Patients and Young Patients [PDF]
, 2018 It has been unclear whether the risk factors for rotator cuff tears are the same at all ages or differ between young and older populations. In this study, we examined the risk factors for rotator cuff tears using classification and regression tree ...

Clinical results of arthroscopic polyglycolic acid sheet patch graft for irreparable rotator cuff tears [PDF]
, 2015 The high retear rates after surgery for irreparable rotator cuff tears can be explained by the healing capacity potential of tendons and the native rotator cuff enthesis characterised by complex morphological structures, called direct insertion.

Augmentation of Rotator Cuff Repair With Soft Tissue Scaffolds [PDF]
, 2015 Background Tears of the rotator cuff are one of the most common tendon disorders. Treatment often includes surgical repair, but the rate of failure to gain or maintain healing has been reported to be as high as 94%. This has been substantially attributed
