Relationship of Acromial Morphology and Rotator Cuff Integrity
The influence of individual acromial morphology on the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tears remains controversial. Since Neer first described the impingement syndrome, several authors have described the morphology of the acromion. In this study, we try to find a physiopathological correlation between the anatomical morphology of the acromion based on these two recently descripted parameters (Acro...
متن کاملCorrelation of acromial morphology with impingement syndrome and rotator cuff tears
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Indications for acromioplasty are based on clinical symptoms and are generally supported by typical changes in acromial morphology on standard radiographs. We evaluated 5 commonly used radiographic parameters of acromial morphology and assessed the association between different radiographic characteristics on the one hand and subacromial impingement or rotator cuff tears ...
متن کاملRotator cuff impingement associated with Type III acromial morphology in a young athlete—a case for early imaging
Down-sloped or hooked acromion morphologies may cause bony encroachment on the soft tissues of the subacromial space, predisposing to shoulder impingement syndrome. Of the latter, a hooked or Type III acromion (T3A) has also been linked to rotator cuff (RC) pathology. However, as bony acromial impingement is typically thought to occur over the age of 40, its occurrence in younger shoulder athle...
متن کاملAcromial shapes and extension of rotator cuff tears: magnetic resonance imaging evaluation.
Magnetic resonance imaging makes it possible to inspect the status of the rotator cuff and the shape of the acromion. To clarify the relationship between acromial shapes and rotator cuff tears, we evaluated magnetic resonance images obtained in 192 shoulders. We classified the acromial shapes into 3 types: type I (flat), type II (curved), and type III (hooked). Among a group of 91 shoulders wit...
متن کاملhe influence of the acromial coverage index in rotator cuff ears
s everal intrinsic and extrinsic factors have been advoated in the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tears, but it is till unclear whether the origin of the tear is related to endon degeneration itself or induced by several morhologic changes. The purpose of this study is to deermine the relationship between the acromial coverge of the humeral head and the presence of a cuff ear. We evaluated 148 sh...
