Arthroscopic Debridement for Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic debridement represents a salvage procedure for irreparable rotator cuff tears. It is important to accurately diagnose the patient for irreparable rotator cuff tears. The diagnosis and the therapeutic options must be explained to the patient. It is mandatory that the patient understands the primary goal of the arthroscopic debridement being reduction of pain, not improvin...
متن کاملArthroscopic treatment of anterosuperior rotator cuff tears.
This study evaluated pre- and postoperative clinical and structural outcome data on anterosuperior rotator cuff tears involving the supraspinatus and subscapularis treated by arthroscopic methods. Between June 2006 and October 2007, a total of 155 consecutive patients underwent an arthroscopic repair for a supraspinatus or supraspinatus and infraspinatus (superior) rotator cuff tear. Of these, ...
متن کاملPartial-thickness rotator cuff tears.
Partial-thickness rotator cuff tears are not a single entity; rather, they represent a spectrum of disease states. Although often asymptomatic, they can be significantly disabling. Overhead throwing athletes with partial-thickness rotator cuff tears differ with respect to etiology, goals, and treatment from older, nonathlete patients with degenerative tears. Pathogenesis of degenerative partial...
متن کاملPartial-Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears
Although the incidence of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears (PTRCTs) was reported to be from 13% to 32% in cadaveric studies, the actual incidence is not yet known. The causes of PTRCTs can be explained by either extrinsic or intrinsic theories. Studies suggest that intrinsic degeneration within the rotator cuff is the principal factor in the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tears. Extrinsic cau...
متن کاملSecond-Look Arthroscopic Evaluation After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair of Partial Rotator Cuff Tears: Comparison of Two Repair Techniques
Background: For surgical treatment of symptomatic partial rotator cuff tears, 2 repair techniques, i.e., arthroscopic trans-tendon repair and arthroscopic repair after conversion to full thickness tear, were widely used and satisfactory clinical outcomes have been reported. However, no study has seen for the direct evaluation of repair integrity after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using seco...
