Fatty Infiltration and Atrophy of the Rotator Cuff Do Not Improve After Rotator Cuff Repair and Correlate With Poor Functional Outcome

TL;DR: It is suggested that repairs should be performed, if possible, before more significant deterioration in the cuff musculature in order to optimize outcomes, and that understanding the degree of muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration before surgery can help guide patient expectations.
Journal ArticleDOI

National Trends in Rotator Cuff Repair

TL;DR: The increase in national rates of rotator cuff repair over the last decade has been dramatic, particularly for arthroscopic assisted repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cuff integrity after arthroscopic versus open rotator cuff repair: A prospective study

TL;DR: It is concluded that open and arthroscopic RCRs have similar clinical outcomes and cuff integrity is comparable for small tears, but large tears have twice the retear rate after ar Throscopic repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tensile properties of the inferior glenohumeral ligament

TL;DR: The tensile properties of the inferior glenohumeral ligament have been determined in 16 freshly frozen cadaver shoulders and the anterior pouch was found to be less stiff than the other two regions, perhaps suggesting that it is composed of more highly crimped collagen fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Relationship of Acromial Architecture to Rotator Cuff Disease

TL;DR: Variations in the architecture of the coracoacromial arch can lead to a clinically symptomatic rotator cuff lesion, and the presence of anterior acromial spurs and inferior acromioclavicular osteophytes decrease the volume of the subacromia space, leading to impingement.
