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 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

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 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.

Fibrosis, low vascularity, and fewer slow fibers after rotator‐cuff injury
Muscle and Nerve, 2017Rotator‐cuff injury (RCI) represents 50% of shoulder injuries, and prevalence increases with age. Even with successful tendon repair, muscle and joint function may not return.

Rotator cuff injuries in overhead athletes
Operative Techniques in Orthopaedics, 2001Sporting activities, such as throwing, swimming, tennis, and the javelin, require the shoulder to rotate at high speeds with the arm abducted, which places the rotator cuff at risk for microtraumatic injury. The rotator cuff works with the labrum and glenohumeral ligaments to restrain abnormal motion of the humeral head on the glenoid.

Labrum and rotator cuff injuries in the throwing athlete
The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 2015The large amount of force imparted across the shoulder during the act of throwing makes the glenohumeral joint highly susceptible to injury in the athlete performing overhead throwing motions. The bony incongruity of the shoulder enables greater range of motion than any other joint in the body, but it also results in significant strain on the ...

Biology of Rotator Cuff Injury and Repair
2020The glenohumeral joint is a complex anatomical structure commonly affected by injury such as tendinopathy and rotator cuff tears. Despite advances in surgical reconstruction of chronic rotator cuff tears, failure rates are still quite high. Significant research efforts have been focused on a better understanding of normal tendon biology, its ...
