Journal ArticleDOI

Superior Capsule Reconstruction to Restore Superior Stability in Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears A Biomechanical Cadaveric Study

TL;DR: Cutting the supraspinatus tendon significantly increased superior translation, significantly increased subacromial contact pressure, and significantly decreased glenohumeral compression force, compared with values for intact rotator cuffs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A cadaveric model of the throwing shoulder: a possible etiology of superior labrum anterior-to-posterior lesions.

TL;DR: A posterior capsular contracture with decreased internal rotation does not allow the humerus to externally rotate into its normal posteroinferior position in the cocking phase of throwing, which may explain the etiology of Type-II superior labrum anterior-to-posterior lesions in overhead athletes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanical Effect of Thickness and Tension of Fascia Lata Graft on Glenohumeral Stability for Superior Capsule Reconstruction in Irreparable Supraspinatus Tears.

TL;DR: Grafts 8-mm thick and attached at 15° to 45° of shoulder abduction biomechanically restore shoulder stability during superior capsule reconstruction using fascia lata to normalized the superior stability of the shoulder joint.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanical Role of Capsular Continuity in Superior Capsule Reconstruction for Irreparable Tears of the Supraspinatus Tendon.

TL;DR: SCR with side-to-side suturing completely restored the superior stability of the shoulder joint by establishing posterior continuity between the graft, residual infraspinatus tendon, and underlying shoulder capsule.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanical effects of glenoid retroversion in total shoulder arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Glenoid component retroversion may result in eccentric loading of the glenoids component and possibly lead to wear and loosening, signifying the importance of correct anatomic placement during total shoulder arthroplasty.
