Rotator cuff tears are the most common upper extremity condition seen by primary care and orthopaedic surgeons, with a spectrum ranging from tendinopathy to full-thickness tears with arthritic change. Some tears are traumatic, but most rotator cuff problems are degenerative.

Rotator cuff tears are a common contributing factor of shoulder pain and occupational disability. Tears of the rotator cuff are becoming increasingly prevalent in today's musculoskeletal population. Accurate recognition and successful treatment of patients with rotator cuff tears require thorough comprehension of the normal and pathologic anatomy of ...

Orthopaedic Nursing, 1995
Pain and loss of motion, the results of rotator cuff tears, can be disabling. Initially, treatment is conservative, but surgical repair may be indicated after failed nonoperative management. Rotator cuff anatomy is reviewed in this article as well as clinical and radiographic assessment of the patient with presumed rotator cuff pathology.

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.

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.

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 ...
