Histopathology of Rotator Cuff Tears
Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2011The pathogenesis of rotator cuff tears is multifactorial. Tendon abnormalities of the rotator cuff include alteration of collagen fiber structure, tenocytes, cellularity, and vascularity. Ruptured tendons show marked collagen degeneration and disordered arrangement of collagen fibers.

Ultrasonography of Rotator Cuff Tears
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1992This is a prospective study of ultrasonography of the rotator cuff mechanism as an alternative to arthrography for screening rotator cuff tears. Seventy-two patients (40 men and 32 women) with possible rotator cuff tears were referred for shoulder arthrography.

Management of Rotator Cuff Tears
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2015Every year approximately 18 million Americans report shoulder pain, a large percentage of which are a result of rotator cuff disease. Rotator cuff tear progression can be difficult to predict. Factors associated with tear enlargement include increasing symptoms, advanced age, involvement of 2 or more tendons, and rotator cable lesion.

Rotator cuff tear arthropathy represents a spectrum of shoulder pathology characterized by rotator cuff insufficiency, diminished acromiohumeral distance with impingement syndromes, and arthritic changes of the glenohumeral joint. Additional features may include subdeltoid effusion, humeral head erosion, and acetabularization of the acromion.

Massive Tears of the Rotator Cuff
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2010Repair of massive rotator cuff tears is technically difficult but often feasible. Technical and biological challenges to a successful repair include inelastic poor-quality tendon tissue, scarring, muscle atrophy, and fatty infiltration. Fatty infiltration of the involved rotator cuff muscles has been identified as an important negative prognostic ...

The clinical presentation of rotator cuff ruptures varies greatly and ranges from no symptoms to severe shoulder impairment. Clinical shoulder tests are an effective screening tool to identify patients who require early specialist assessment or further radiological investigation, but they are not sufficient to rule out smaller ruptures.

Rotator cuff tears in athletes
British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2009A rotator cuff tear in the athlete is different to the classic, more common cuff tear in the elderly. It is either a traumatic or an overhead, overuse injury in high functional demand patients, so it requires more active and earlier intervention, suspicion of injury, and specific assessment and treatment to enable return to the pre-injury level of ...

The diagnosis of a torn rotator cuff can be readily established by arthrography. It must be suspected in any patient with should pain with or without a history of injury. Under circumstances in which spontaneous healing cannot be expected, early surgical repair should provide consistent satisfactory results.

Diagnosis of rotator cuff tears
The Lancet, 2001Rotator cuff tears account for almost 50% of major shoulder injuries but are sometimes difficult to diagnose. To aid diagnosis, we did a prospective study, comparing results of 23 clinical tests from 400 patients with and without rotator cuff tears. Three simple tests were predictive for rotator cuff tear: supraspinatus weakness, weakness in external ...

Anthony A. Romeo, MD, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois. B C A A 72-year-old woman presents with chronic shoulder pain subsequent to a fall that has not responded to conservative treatment. She tells you that she “wants it fixed.” T2-weighted coronal (A) and sagittal (B) and T1-weighted sagittal (C ...
