Rotator Cuff Injury in Contact Athletes

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1996
The 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

Serious Rotator Cuff Injuries

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, 1988
Rotator 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.

Primary and Secondary Consequences of Rotator Cuff Injury on Joint Stabilizing Tissues in the Shoulder.

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2017
Rotator cuff tears (RCTs) are one of the primary causes of shoulder pain and dysfunction in the upper extremity accounting over 4.5 million physician visits per year with 250,000 rotator cuff repairs being performed annually in the U.S. While the tear is

Rotator cuff injuries in overhead athletes

Operative Techniques in Orthopaedics, 2001
Sporting 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, 2015
The 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

2020
The 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 ...

Rotator Cuff and Biceps Injuries in Baseball

Clinics in Sports Medicine
Rotator cuff and biceps tendon injuries are a common source of pain and dysfunction among overhead athletes. The stress across the glenohumeral joint and its dynamic stabilizers in high level throwing leads to adaptive anatomic changes that must be recognized and respected. Nonoperative treatment is recommended for partial rotator cuff tears and biceps

Rotator Cuff Tears and Associated Nerve Injuries

Orthopedics, 2000
ABSTRACT 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.
