Isakos Scoring System for Rotator Cuff Tears
A classification for rotator cuff tears should follow several principles. First, the classification system should be already in use, if possible, validated for reliability, and easily used by physicians and researchers. Second, it should be descriptive to define the location and anatomy of the tear, helping all surgeons to understand precisely its characteristics. Third, the classification shou...
متن کاملSonographic evaluation of the arthroscopically repaired rotator cuff
Ultrasound is gradually achieving more acceptance by orthopaedic surgeons as a diagnostic imaging tool for rotator cuff and biceps tendon pathology. Two hundred and ten patients with arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs were examined clinically and with ultrasound at early (3 weeks) and late follow-up (average 22 months; range: 12 to 49). A high correlation between clinically intact cuffs and sono...
متن کاملShoulder scoring scales for the evaluation of rotator cuff repair.
Various assessment tools have been proposed for evaluation of shoulder function. Analyses of comparability, validity, and reliability among shoulder assessment tools are lacking. The purpose of our investigation was to compare the results of three commonly used shoulder assessment tools in the evaluation of a specific shoulder condition. Seventy-two full-thickness rotator cuff tears were treate...
متن کاملRotator cuff function in the impingement syndrome.
Thirty-three patients with impingement syndrome of the rotator cuff were studied before and at operation. It was shown that the rotator cuff lengthens and twists during elevation of the arm. Elevation is achieved by early glenohumeral abduction and continuous flexion and external rotation. The range of free rotation at the glenohumeral joint diminishes progressively during elevation. Rotator cu...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Rotator Cuff Repairs Revised to Shoulder Arthroplasty
Background: Successful repair of a torn rotator cuff may prevent progression to rotator cuff arthropathy. However,previous studies have shown a substantial rate of failure after rotator cuff repair and characteristics of surgicallyrepaired rotator cuffs that go on to shoulder arthroplasty have not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study wasto determine the patient cha...
