ARC (Australian Rotator Cuff) trial: study protocol for a randomised placebo-controlled trial comparing rotator cuff repair to no repair during arthroscopic shoulder surgery for people with shoulder pain and non-acute rotator cuff tears

open access: yesTrials
Background Degenerative rotator cuff tears are common and are often treated with surgical repair. Randomised trials have not shown a clear advantage to surgery over non-surgical treatment, but there have been no published placebo-controlled trials ...

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?

open access: yesArthroscopy, 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 ...

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

open access: yesArthroscopy 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: When it Comes to Graft Thickness for Superior Capsular Reconstruction, Go Thick or Go Back to the Original

open access: yesArthroscopy, 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 ...

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist Use in Obese Patients Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Revision and Retears After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the impact of preoperative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) use on medical complications, emergency department use, and orthopaedic complications in obese patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods Obese patients (defined by relevant ICD‐10 codes and confirmed by body mass index measurements ...

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

open access: yesOrthopaedic 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.

Rotator cuff tear: A detailed update

open access: yesAsia-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 ...

Female Patients Exhibit a Narrower Glenoid Rim and Lower Bone Density in the Anteroinferior Quadrant Compared With Male Patients

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate sex‐based differences in glenoid rim morphology and bone density relevant to arthroscopic Bankart repair. Methods This retrospective study assessed differences in glenoid rim morphology between sexes in patients with shoulder instability and uninjured control subjects who underwent a magnetic resonance ...

Rotator cuff pathology: state of the art [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The rotator cuff tendon undergoes degeneration and tear quite commonly in the elderly population and was rarely observed in patients under 50 years of age. In addition to ageing, smoking, diabetes mellitus and other comorbidities are known to be the risk
