Irreducible acute anterior shoulder dislocation due to rotator cuff tear and associated fracture of the greater tuberosity: A method of open reduction and rotator cuff repair
A 67-year-old man sustained an anterior dislocation of his right shoulder following a fall down the stairs. He attended the Casualty Department 4 days after his injury. On examination he had no neurovascular injury. Radiographs confirmed anteroinferior dislocation of the shoulder with a comminuted fracture of the greater tuberosity (Fig. 1). Two attempts at closed reduction, under sedation, fai...
متن کاملIs There an Association Between the “Critical Shoulder Angle” and Clinical Outcome After Rotator Cuff Repair?
BACKGROUND Variations in scapular morphology have been associated with the development of atraumatic rotator cuff tears (RCTs). The critical shoulder angle (CSA) accounts for both glenoid inclination and lateral extension of the acromion. The impact of the CSA on outcomes after rotator cuff repair (RCR) has not been investigated previously. HYPOTHESIS Our hypothesis was that individuals with ...
متن کاملArthroscopic grafting of greater tuberosity cyst and rotator cuff repair.
Cysts of the greater tuberosity can be a normal finding independent of age and concurrent rotator cuff tear. The presence of a large greater tuberosity cyst can present a challenge at the time of rotator cuff repair. We present a 1-step arthroscopic technique to address these defects at the time of rotator cuff repair using a synthetic graft (OsteoBiologics, San Antonio, TX) originally designed...
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...
