Rotator cuff tear: A detailed update

Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology, 2015
Rotator cuff tear has been a known entity for orthopaedic surgeons for more than two hundred years. Although the exact pathogenesis is controversial, a combination of intrinsic factors proposed by Codman and extrinsic factors theorized by Neer is likely ...

The Use of Allograft or Xenograft Augmentation in Rotator Cuff Repair Is Cost‐Effective Particularly With Allograft

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of using allograft and xenograft augmentation at the time of primary rotator cuff repair (RCR) using a decision tree analysis. Methods An expected‐value decision tree analysis was developed to compare the costs and outcomes of primary RCR for large tears performed with or without graft augmentation.

Restoring the Anteroposterior Shoulder Force Couple: Arthroscopic-Assisted Lower Trapezius Tendon Transfer With Partially Augmented Rotator Cuff Repair for Irreparable Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
Lower trapezius transfer presents a highly encouraging therapeutic approach for addressing posterosuperior irreparable massive rotator cuff tears. Based on studies on the balance of force couples of the rotator cuff, more scholars believe that attention ...

Editorial Commentary: Retaining Its Clinical Importance: Open Bankart Repair With Inferior Capsular Shift in Collision and Contact Athletes With Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability Retains Its Clinical Importance—But Will It Also Endure in the Future?

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Recurrent anterior shoulder instability (RASI) is frequently seen especially in young collision and contact athletes. The glenohumeral joint stability is often compromised by associated Hill‐Sachs and Bankart lesions. In young and active patients with high risk of recurrence or failed nonoperative therapy a surgical treatment is indicated to stabilize ...

Epidemiological Analysis of Changes in Clinical Practice for Full-Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears From 2010 to 2015

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019
Background: Rotator cuff injuries are a leading cause of shoulder disability among adults. Surgical intervention is a common treatment modality; however, conservative management has been described for the treatment of rotator cuff tears.

Biologics and stem cell-based therapies for rotator cuff repair.

, 2019
The rotator cuff is composed of several distinct muscles and tendons that function in concert to coordinate shoulder motion. Injuries to these tendons frequently result in permanent dysfunction and persistent pain.

Editorial Commentary: When it Comes to Graft Thickness for Superior Capsular Reconstruction, Go Thick or Go Back to the Original

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic, irreparable rotator cuff tears continue to be a problem but there are multiple options for treatment, including superior capsular reconstruction (SCR). The original SCR technique described by Mihata used autograft fascia lata. However, most surgeons performing SCR do not use autograft fascia lata; instead, they desire to avoid ...

Arthroscopic Knotless Rotator Cuff Repair With Decellularized Dermal Allograft Augmentation: The “Canopy” Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2020
Repairability and clinical outcomes of full-thickness rotator cuff tears rely on tendon mobility, tissue quality, and subsequent tension on a repair. While repair of rotator cuff tears tend to yield excellent clinical results, poor tissue quality has ...

Relationship of individual scapular anatomy and degenerative rotator cuff tears.

, 2014
BACKGROUND The etiology of rotator cuff disease is age related, as documented by prevalence data. Despite conflicting results, growing evidence suggests that distinct scapular morphologies may accelerate the underlying degenerative process.

Both Rerouted and In Situ Biceps Superior Capsular Reconstruction Augmentation During Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Improve Clinical Outcomes

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes at a 2‐year follow‐up of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) augmented with superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) using the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) in patients with reparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears.
