Teres Minor Hypertrophy is a Common and Negative Predictor of Outcomes after Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016
Objectives: The teres minor has received increased attention in its role as a rotator cuff muscle, particularly in the setting of large infraspinatus tears. Studies have shown that it plays an important beneficial role after total (TSA) and reverse (RSA)

Editorial Commentary: Tobacco or Not—All Nicotine Products Negatively Impact Rotator Cuff Surgery

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotator cuff repair is one of the most common elective orthopaedic surgeries performed; however, failure rates have been reported to range from 10% to 94% depending on the tear characteristics and other patient risk factors. One of the most common risk factors for failure is tobacco use.

Tissue Engineering for Rotator Cuff Repair: An Evidence-Based Systematic Review

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2012
The purpose of this systematic review was to address the treatment of rotator cuff tears by applying tissue engineering approaches to improve tendon healing, specifically platelet rich plasma (PRP) augmentation, stem cells, and scaffolds.

Patch Augmentation in Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesCurrent Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2020
Rotator cuff repair has excellent outcomes for many patients but continues to be suboptimal for large, retracted tears, and revision procedures. In these situations, patch augmentation may be considered in order to improve healing. The purpose of this article is to review the history, graft options, indications, surgical technique, outcomes, and ...

Editorial Commentary: Estrogen Influences Shoulder Health

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Estrogen influences bone mineral density, muscle quality and quantity, and collagen synthesis, rotator cuff tearing, worse outcomes after rotator cuff repair, hyperlaxity, and adhesive capsulitis. In this commentary, we discuss the potential explanations for the highly significant associations between hormonal systemic birth control and a ...

In Vivo 3‐Dimensional Glenohumeral Joint Geometry Based Upon Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Computed Tomography Analysis Shows Deeper, Thicker, and Taller Glenoid Labrum Morphology at 12 O’Clock Position in Healthy Young Adults

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate location‐ and sex‐specific glenoid labrum morphology of healthy young adults in vivo, and the labrum's effects on depth and radius of curvature (ROC) of the glenohumeral joint. Methods Healthy young adults with no history of shoulder surgery, injury, or instability underwent computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging ...

Current Concepts in Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yes, 2003
The interest in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair has increased exponentially over the last 5 years. Although the operative technique of repair continues to evolve, there are now several studies reporting excellent results after arthroscopic repair of ...

The Use of Allograft or Xenograft Augmentation in Rotator Cuff Repair Is Cost‐Effective Particularly With Allograft

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of using allograft and xenograft augmentation at the time of primary rotator cuff repair (RCR) using a decision tree analysis. Methods An expected‐value decision tree analysis was developed to compare the costs and outcomes of primary RCR for large tears performed with or without graft augmentation.

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 ...
