A full thickness supraspinatus tear identified by ultrasound imaging was associated with PAR to SAB injection (OR 5.0, p ≤ 0.05). None of the imaging variables were strongly associated with PAR ...

Introduction Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a significant source of musculoskeletal disability. Accompanying muscle changes may be important determinants of the prognosis. The aim of this study was to ...

FTT—patients over 35 years with a full thickness rotator cuff tear undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery. Samples were taken under ultrasound guidance from the supraspinatus tendon.

Results showed the mean total thickness of the supraspinatus tendon increased by 12.5% for medium tears and by 17.1% for large tears between baseline and 2-year follow-up. Researchers found 11.5% ...

Use of either the transtendon technique or tear completion for the arthroscopic repair of partial-thickness subscapularis tears associated with full-thickness supraspinatus tears resulted in ...

The researchers identified 511 patients at 15 French hospitals who underwent surgery in 2003 to repair isolated, complete (full-thickness) supraspinatus tears.

The study provides new evidence that early surgery for supraspinatus tears can improve long-term outcomes by preventing later rotator cuff muscle degeneration.

A full thickness supraspinatus tear on ultrasound was associated with subacromial pain according to our criterion, and ultrasound findings of a biceps tendon sheath effusion and an intact rotator ...
