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.

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1983
Usually, serious rotator cuff injuries can be operated upon and a high level of performance can be achieved afer surgery. This is not so for the substantial tears seen in baseball pitchers. However, a damaged rotator cuff can be rehabilitated and can recover from the threatened tear without surgery if detected early enough and given the proper ...

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.

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

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

Rotator Cuff Injuries in Baseball
Sports Medicine, 1988Rotator cuff and ligamentous capsule injuries are common in the young baseball player. In order to understand these injuries, it is important to first appreciate the delicate balance between shoulder mobility and stability as well as the biomechanics of throwing.

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 Tears and Associated Nerve Injuries
Orthopedics, 2000ABSTRACT A series of 15 patients with concomitant rotator cuff tears and infraclavicular brachial plexus injuries treated between 1 980 and 1 989 were reviewed. There were 6 men and 9 women with a mean age of 65 years. Seventeen nerve injuries were identified, including 12 axillary nerves, 4 suprascapular nerves, and 1 musculocutaneous nerve.

Diagnosis of tears in rotator-cuff-injuries
European Journal of Radiology, 1997Pathology 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.
