Vascularity of the Rotator Cuff Tendon
Previous perfusion studies of the rotator cuff have demonstrated an area of bypovascularity in the distal part of the supraspinatus tendon. This has been implicated in the pathogenesis ofits rupture. We performed a quantitative histological analysis of the vascularity of the tendons ofsupraspinatus and infraspinatus. Vessel number, size and the percentage of the tendon occupied by vessels were ...
متن کاملProximal Biceps Tendon and Rotator Cuff Tears.
The long head of biceps tendon (LHBT) is frequently involved in rotator cuff tears and can cause anterior shoulder pain. Tendon hypertrophy, hourglass contracture, delamination, tears, and tendon instability in the bicipital groove are common macroscopic pathologic findings affecting the LHBT in the presence of rotator cuff tears. Failure to address LHBT disorders in the setting of rotator cuff...
متن کاملTendon Degeneration in the Rotator Cuff
Overuse injuries of the rotator cuff are a significant source of pain and morbidity.1 Despite an aging population and documented associations between rotator cuff tears and increasing age, the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tendinopathy remains poorly understood.1-9 The natural history of rotator cuff tears is unfavorable, as these lesions fail to spontaneously heal and progress in size over time...
متن کاملTendon trap technique for rotator cuff repair.
Strangulation around cuff tissue is a possible cause of retear after rotator cuff repair. Therefore, tendon healing ideally requires changes in suture tension over the cuff tissue in accord with rotator cuff muscle activity. The authors present a type of fixation that mimics the mechanism of the Chinese finger trap. The devised knot-free tendon trap technique resembles the double-pulley-suture ...
متن کاملTendon transfers for irreparable rotator cuff tears.
Tendon transfer is one treatment option for patients with massive irreparable rotator cuff tears. Although surgical indications are not clearly defined, the traditional thought is that the ideal candidate is young and lacks significant glenohumeral arthritis. The proposed benefits of tendon transfers are pain relief and potential increase in strength. The biomechanical rationale for the procedu...
