Biomechanical factors in rotator cuff pathology.
The rotator cuff provides dynamic stability and is critical to normal shoulder function. Forces generated by the rotator cuff facilitate the motions involved in activities of daily living and the more demanding movements of athletics and manual labor. Injury and pathology of the rotator cuff are common and the unique anatomical and biomechanical characteristics of the cuff contribute to the eti...
متن کاملMR Imaging of the Rotator Cuff and Rotator Interval
The rotator cuff is comprised of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, and teres minor muscles and tendons. The four muscles of the rotator cuff act as stabilizers of the glenohumeral joint. The supraspinatus is primarily a shoulder abductor. The supraspinatus muscle originates along the dorsal surface of the scapula. The muscle fibers course in a lateral orientation and converge to ...
متن کاملMR imaging of the rotator cuff.
MR imaging is the optimal method for evaluating suspected rotator cuff pathology. Current techniques of fast spin-echo imaging without and with fat suppression allow accurate identification and characterization of tendinous and myotendinous abnormalities of the rotator cuff. Impingement disorders, tendon degeneration, instability,and trauma comprise the multifactorial nature of rotator cuff dis...

متن کاملSuprascapular Nerve: Is It Important in Cuff Pathology?
Suprascapular nerve and rotator cuff function are intimately connected. The incidence of suprascapular neuropathy has been increasing due to improved understanding of the disease entity and detection methods. The nerve dysfunction often results from a traction injury or compression, and a common cause is increased tension on the nerve from retracted rotator cuff tears. Suprascapular neuropathy ...
