Reliability of a 3 T MRI protocol for objective grading of supraspinatus tendonosis and partial thickness tears
BACKGROUND Partial thickness supraspinatus tears and tendonosis can be managed either nonoperatively or by various arthroscopic techniques. New biologic treatment approaches are currently being investigated. MRI is commonly used for objective imaging outcome evaluation but there is a lack of reliability studies. We propose a novel MRI classification of partial supraspinatus tears and tendonosis...
متن کاملFull-thickness and partial-thickness supraspinatus tendon tears: value of US signs in diagnosis.
PURPOSE To determine which US signs are important in the diagnosis of a surgically identifiable supraspinatus tendon tear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty consecutive ultrasonographic (US) studies of the shoulder in patients who underwent arthroscopic follow-up were retrospectively reviewed by a musculoskeletal radiologist.

متن کاملClinical Results of Platelet-Rich Plasma for Partial Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears: A Case Series
Partial thickness rotator cuff tears (PTRCTs) are a common pathology among shoulder disorders in people over 50 years.Treatment of PTRCTs remains controversial. Most studies on the treatment of PTRCTs have explained surgical techniquesor outcomes; few studies have centralized on the conservative and new management of PTRCTs, like treatmentwith Platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

متن کاملEvolution of nonoperatively treated symptomatic isolated full-thickness supraspinatus tears.
BACKGROUND The natural history of small, symptomatic rotator cuff tears is currently unclear. The purpose of the present study was to assess the clinical and structural outcomes for a consecutive series of patients with symptomatic, isolated full-thickness supraspinatus tears who had been offered rotator cuff repair but declined operative treatment. METHODS In the study period, twenty-four pa...
