Rotator Cuff Injury and Repair
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2022AbstractRotator cuff pathology is a commonly encountered clinical and radiologic entity that can manifest as tendinopathy or tearing. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography offer similar sensitivity and specificity for the evaluation of the native rotator cuff, and the chosen modality may vary, depending on local practice and ...

Diagnosis of tears in rotator-cuff-injuries [PDF]
Pathology of the rotator cuff is the cause of most common problems at the shoulder joint. Acute injuries are not as frequent as chronic cuff disease, but often they aggravate inflammatory or degenerative tendon alterations, even if they are of minor severity.

Rotator Cuff Injuries: An Update
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1989Rotator cuff injuries are a common clinical entity seen by physical therapists. The purpose of this article is to present the interrelationship between rotator cuff anatomy, biomechanics, and pathophysiology and how these factors affect the clinical management of rotator cuff injuries. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 1989;10(10):394-398.

Rotator cuff injuries and treatment
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2004Rotator cuff problems are among the most commonly encountered disorders of the shoulder, and are commonly seen by primary care physicians. Their exact mechanism for susceptibility to injury remains unclear; however, with an understanding of the shoulder's anatomy and biomechanics, we are better able to treat the insults incurred on the cuff.

Accident and Emergency Nursing, 2000
Different types of rotator cuff injuries frequently present to Accident and Emergency departments and minor injury units but can be difficult to differentiate clinically. This brief case study describes the examination and diagnosis of related shoulder injuries, specifically rotator cuff tears/disruption and calcifying supraspinatus tendinitis.

Biomechanics of Rotator Cuff Injury and Repair
2021Biomechanical behaviour of rotator cuff allows for the articular stability and, at same time, for the humeral motion. Tears of rotator cuff altered the normal biomechanics of the shoulder, leading to functional impairments. Several rotator cuff repair and treatment strategies have been proposed, with the aim to fully restore the biomechanics of the ...

Rotator cuff injuries in adolescent athletes
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics B, 2013The cause of rotator cuff injuries in the young athlete has been described as an overuse injury related to internal impingement. Abduction coupled with external rotation is believed to impinge on the rotator cuff, specifically the supraspinatus, and lead to undersurface tears that can progress to full-thickness tears. This impingement is believed to be

Rehabilitation of Rotator Cuff Injuries
2001The shoulder complex is particularly susceptible to injury, as it maintains a precarious interplay between stability and motion and is repetitively stressed in occupational and sporting activities. Rotator cuff disorders are among the most common causes of pain and impaired performance in athletes, mainly those involved in repetitive overhead throwing ...

Rotator Cuff Injury: Addressing Overhead Overuse
The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1997Rotator cuff injuries in sports are usually a result of microtrauma from repetitive movements. Classic, or primary, impingement results directly from overhead motions, and secondary impingement is related to underlying shoulder instability. A variety of physical maneuvers are used to assess pain, muscle weakness, and shoulder stability. The workup also

Rotator Cuff Injury in Contact Athletes
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1996The causes and incidence of rotator cuff injuries in patients under the age of 40 has not been clearly established. The present study focuses on a group of 10 male contact athletes with rotator cuff injuries re lated to trauma sustained during football (ages from 24 to 36 years). Symptoms included pain and dysfunction in all 10 patients and a positive
