BACKGROUND: Although many studies involving rotator cuff repair fixation have focused on ultimate fixation strength and ability to restore the tendon's native footprint, no studies have characterized the stability of the repair with regard to motion between the tendon and repair site footprint. HYPOTHESIS: Suture anchor fixation for rotator cuff repair has greater interface motion between tendon and bone than does transosseous suture fixation. STUDY DESIGN: Controlled laboratory study. METHODS: Twelve fresh-frozen human cadaveric shoulders were tested in a custom device to position the shoulder in internal and external rotations with simulated supraspinatus muscle loading. Tendon motion relative to the insertional footprint on the greater tuberosity was determined optically using a digital camera rigidly connected to the humerus, with the humerus positioned at 60 degrees of internal rotation and 60 degrees of external rotation. Testing was performed for the intact tendon, a complete supraspinatus tear, a suture anchor repair, and a transosseous tunnel repair. RESULTS: Difference in tendon-bone interface motion when compared with the intact tendon was 7.14 +/- 3.72 mm for the torn rotator cuff condition, 2.35 +/- 1.26 mm for the suture anchor repair, and 0.02 +/- 1.18 mm for the transosseous suture repair. The transosseous suture repair demonstrated significantly less motion when compared with the torn rotator cuff and suture anchor repair conditions (P < .05). CONCLUSION: Transosseous suture repair compared with suture anchor repair demonstrated superior tendon fixation with reduced motion at the tendon-to-tuberosity interface. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Development of new fixation techniques for arthroscopic and open rotator cuff repairs should attempt to minimize interface motion of the tendon relative to the tuberosity.  相似文献

The traditional open transosseous rotator cuff repair gives excellent results for the fixation of tendon to bone and has represented the gold standard for rotator cuff surgery with excellent long-term results. In the last few years, different arthroscopic techniques using suture anchors have been developed to increase the tendon-bone contact area in an attempt to reconstitute a more anatomic configuration of the rotator cuff footprint while providing a better environment for tendon healing. However, the anchor-based techniques have still not replicated the traditional open transosseous repair. A surgical technique that allows surgeons to perform a standardized arthroscopic transosseous (anchor free) repair of rotator cuff tears using a new disposable device is described. With this system, it is possible to perform a transosseous technique in a reproducible fashion. This novel technique combines the clinical advantages of minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery and the biomechanical advantages of open transosseous procedures. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: V.  相似文献

Rotator cuff tears can be a significant source of shoulder pain and weakness. Repair of full-thickness tears canimprove patient satisfaction and functional outcome. Several repair techniques have been described in the literature; these include arthroscopic and open approaches. Although arthroscopic repair has been popularized in the recent literature, it may not be optimal for some cases of large or massive rotator cuff tears. Open approaches allow greater access for mobilization and enable placement of bone tunnels for bone-tendon repair. The surgeon may readily release bursal and articular sided adhesions and mobilize the retracted tendon to its anatomic footprint on the greater tuberosity. This article describes 2 surgical approaches of open repair, the mini-open and formal open approach. Furthermore, useful techniques for tendon mobilization, bone-tendon repair, and postoperative rehabilitation for the management of large and massive rotator cuff tears are described.  相似文献

Many palliative interventions have been proposed for patients in whom rotator cuff repair is not feasible as a result of advanced fatty infiltration, definitive loss of tendons, and proximal humeral migration. The long head of the biceps tendon has been proposed as a source of pain in patients with rotator cuff tears. This article presents a review of current concepts on the rationale for arthroscopic biceps tenotomy or tenodesis, and evaluates the objective, subjective, and radiographic results of these palliative procedures. On the basis of different studies, it seems that isolated arthroscopic biceps tenotomy or tenodesis is a valuable option for the treatment of rotator cuff tears in selected patients. Although it does not improve shoulder strength, tenotomy or tenodesis reduces pain and improves the functional range of motion with a high degree of patient satisfaction. However, the progressive radiographic changes that occur with long standing rotator cuff tears are not altered.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The stress concentration at the site of supraspinatus tendon repair, either by suture anchor fixation or by transosseous suture fixation, has not been fully clarified. HYPOTHESIS: Suture anchor fixation showed higher stress concentrations in the tendon than did transosseous suture fixation. STUDY DESIGN: Controlled laboratory study. METHODS: Three finite element models were developed based on a previously published model of normal supraspinatus tendon (0 degrees abduction). Single-row fixation, double-row fixation, and transosseous suture fixation were simulated. A tensile force was applied to the proximal end of the supraspinatus tendon to simulate its contraction force. RESULTS: In the single-row model, the stress appeared from the site of the anchor and extended into the proximal tendon. The highest stress concentration was observed on the bursal surface of the tendon. The double-row model showed a similar pattern to the single-row model except that the stress concentration was observed only around the medial anchor. In the transosseous model, the stress appeared from the attachment site to a bony trough, which extended proximally into the tendon substance. No significant stress concentration was observed inside the tendon. CONCLUSION: Both single-row and double-row fixations showed higher stress concentration inside the tendon than did transosseous suture fixation. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: A high stress concentration might be a cause of the rerupture often observed after arthroscopic cuff repair using suture anchors.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence and clinical impact of rotator cuff tears in asymptomatic volunteers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sonographic examinations of the shoulder of 212 asymptomatic individuals between 18 and 85 years old were performed by a single experienced operator. The prevalence and location of complete rotator cuff tears were evaluated. The clinical assessment was based on the Constant Score. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the shoulder was obtained in those patients where US showed rotator cuff pathology. RESULTS: Ultrasound showed a complete rupture of the supraspinatus tendon in 6% of 212 patients from 56 to 83 years of age (mean: 67 years). MRI confirmed a complete rupture of the supraspinatus tendon in 90%. All patients reported no functional deficits, although strength was significantly lower in the patient group with complete supraspinatus tendon tear (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: There is a higher prevalence in older individuals of rotator cuff tendon tears that cause no pain or decrease in activities of daily living.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: We sought to compare the diagnostic accuracy of conventional MRI versus MR arthrography of the shoulder in the assessment of high-performance athletes (professional baseball players) and to compare our findings in these patients with the conventional MRI and MR arthrographic findings in an age-matched control group of nonprofessional athletes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Conventional MRI and MR arthrographic examinations of the shoulder in 20 consecutive professional baseball players with shoulder pain were reviewed retrospectively by two musculoskeletal radiologists in consensus. These interpretations were compared with retrospective consensus interpretations of conventional MRI and MR arthrographic examinations of the shoulder obtained in a control group of 50 consecutive nonprofessional athletes with shoulder pain. MR images were assessed for full- or partial-thickness supraspinatus tendon tears, superior labral anteroposterior (SLAP) tears, and anterior or posterior labral tears. RESULTS: In the 20 consecutive professional athlete patients, two full-thickness and six partial-thickness undersurface supraspinatus tendon tears were seen on MR arthrography but not seen on conventional MRI as well as six SLAP tears, two anterior labral tears, and one posterior labral tear. Three patients had both SLAP tears and full- or partial-thickness supraspinatus tendon tears. Of 14 patients with findings on MR arthrography that were not seen on MRI, 11 had arthroscopic correlation. In all 11, arthroscopic findings confirmed findings on MR arthrography. In the group of 50 nonprofessional athlete patients, five had additional findings on MR arthrography not seen on conventional MRI: two anterior labral tears, two partial-thickness supraspinatus tendon tears, and two SLAP tears. One patient had both a partial-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear and a SLAP tear seen on MR arthrography. The five patients with additional findings on MR arthrography had arthroscopy. In all five, arthroscopic findings confirmed the findings on MR arthrography. CONCLUSION: MR arthrography is considerably more sensitive for detection of partial-thickness supraspinatus tears and labral tears than conventional MRI. MR arthrography showed injuries in addition to those seen on conventional MRI in 14 of 20 patients in the high-performance athlete group. These results suggest high-performance athletes may be a subgroup of patients for whom MR arthrography yields considerably more diagnostic information than conventional MRI.  相似文献

Partial-thickness rotator cuff tears present partial disruption of tendon fibers with no communication between the subacromial bursa and the glenohumeral joint. The clinical presentation is surprisingly variable, ranging from mild discomfort to decreased throwing speed, chronic pain, and shoulder inability. The first approach to partial-thickness rotator cuff tears is usually conservative, but the hypovascularity of the critical zone and mechanical factors often result in poor spontaneous tendon healing. Surgical options include arthroscopic cuff "debridement" or "repair," performed arthroscopically or by open surgery, and subacromial decompression or debridement if necessary. No agreement has been reached on the best surgical management. However, repair is usually indicated if bursal-sided and articular tears involve more than 50% of tendon thickness; debridement is generally undertaken if <50% of the rotator cuff is torn. There is a need for randomized clinical trails formulating and testing guidelines of management and for further studies on imaging or intraoperative measures and methods to assess the thickness of the rotator cuff to inform management.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the utility of MRI in patients with new or persistent pain after surgery with bioabsorbable rotator cuff anchors. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. Three musculoskeletal radiologists prospectively reviewed MRIs of 30 patients with pain after rotator cuff repair with fixation by rotator cuff anchors. Each radiologist described the location of the rotator cuff anchors and whether the supraspinatus tendon was intact or not. MRI findings were correlated with second-look arthroscopy. Consensus MRI interpretations by the three radiologists were obtained retrospectively. RESULTS: Of the 30 patients, nine had dislodgement of the rotator cuff anchors from the humeral head along with a full-thickness supraspinatus tendon retear. The dislodged rotator cuff anchor position could be determined on coronal and sagittal MRIs, providing the orthopedic surgeon a preoperative map for tendon reattachment and retrieval of the dislodged rotator cuff anchor. Four patients had loose rotator cuff anchors but intact supraspinatus tendons. Three patients had supraspinatus tendon retears, but the rotator cuff anchors were intact. In all 16 patients, arthroscopic findings confirmed MRI findings. Fourteen patients had intact rotator cuff anchors and intact supraspinatus tendons on MRI. Of these 14 patients, five had second-look arthroscopy confirming MRI findings. CONCLUSION: MRI is useful in the assessment of patients with persistent or new-onset pain after supraspinatus tendon repair with rotator cuff anchors. MRI provides a presurgical map for second-look arthroscopy to assess retear of the supraspinatus tendon and also aids in retrieval of dislodged rotator cuff anchors.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Interface contact pressure between the tendon and bone has been shown to influence healing. This study evaluates the interface pressure of the rotator cuff tendon to the greater tuberosity for different rotator cuff repair techniques. HYPOTHESIS: The transosseous tunnel rotator cuff repair technique provides larger pressure distributions over a defined insertion footprint than do suture anchor techniques. STUDY DESIGN: Controlled laboratory study. METHODS: Simulated rotator cuff tears over a 1 x 2-cm infraspinatus insertion footprint were created in 25 bovine shoulders. A transosseous tunnel simple suture technique (n = 8), suture anchor simple technique (n = 9), and suture anchor mattress technique (n = 8) were used for repair. Pressurized contact areas and mean pressures of the repaired tendon against the tuberosity were determined using pressure-sensitive film placed between the tendon and the tuberosity. RESULTS: The mean contact area between the tendon and tuberosity insertion footprint was significantly greater for the transosseous technique (67.7 +/- 5.8 mm(2)) compared with the suture anchor simple (34.1 +/- 9.4 mm(2)) and suture anchor mattress (26.0 +/- 5.3 mm(2)) techniques (P < .05). The mean interface pressure exerted over the footprint by the tendon was also greater for the transosseous technique (0.32 +/- 0.05 MPa) compared with the suture anchor simple (0.26 +/- 0.04 MPa) and suture anchor mattress (0.24 +/- 0.02 MPa) techniques (P < .05). CONCLUSION: The transosseous tunnel rotator cuff repair technique creates significantly more contact and greater overall pressure distribution over a defined footprint when compared with suture anchor techniques. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Stronger and faster rotator cuff healing may be expected when beneficial pressure distributions exist between the repaired rotator cuff and its insertion footprint. Tendon-to-tuberosity pressure and contact characteristics should be considered in the development of improved open and arthroscopic rotator cuff repair techniques.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Prevalence and clinical significance of partial tears of the subscapularis tendon have not been widely studied. PURPOSE: To determine prevalence of and clinical factors associated with partial tears of the subscapularis tendon at arthroscopy. STUDY DESIGN: Case control study. METHODS: During arthroscopic procedures on 314 consecutive shoulders, the arthroscopically visible portion of the subscapularis tendon was probed. Patients with and without partial tears were compared for prospectively identified variables. RESULTS: Partial tears were found in 60 of the 314 patients (19%). Increasing age and dominant arm involvement were significant variables for partial tears. Significantly associated factors included supraspinatus tendon tears (54 of 60; 90%), rotator cuff disease (44 of 60, 73%), and posterosuperior labral fraying (34 of 47, 72%). Increasing age, dominant arm involvement, and coexisting infraspinatus tendon tears were strong independent risk factors for partial tears. CONCLUSION: Partial tears of the subscapularis tendon are not uncommon findings during shoulder arthroscopic procedures and are associated with extensive rotator cuff disease. They do not appear to be associated with glenohumeral instability, but a possible association with atypical forms of instability (subclinical or superior instability) cannot be excluded by this study. The absence of a significant association between the lesion and specific subjective symptoms or physical findings suggests that caution should be taken when attributing a specific symptom to this condition.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Sonography has become a popular technique for the assessment of musculoskeletal disorders. Patient positioning is crucial to a thorough and accurate assessment of rotator cuff tendons. Two positions, the Crass and modified Crass, have been routinely used in the research and clinical settings to examine the supraspinatus tendon. Our study was a prospective trial to determine whether the Crass or the modified Crass position affords the most accurate measure of supraspinatus tears when compared with surgical findings. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Twenty-one patients with full-thickness supraspinatus tears underwent shoulder sonography in both the Crass and the modified Crass positions. Measurements of supraspinatus tears were performed in the sagittal and transverse dimensions. Patients subsequently underwent either arthroscopic or open supraspinatus repair. Intraoperative measurements were made in two dimensions and were compared with sonographic findings. RESULTS: Sonography had 100% specificity in detecting full-thickness supraspinatus tears. No statistically significant difference was seen between the size of supraspinatus tears in the Crass and modified Crass positions and surgical findings in the transverse plane (p = 0.55 and 0.61, respectively). In the sagittal dimension, no statistically significant difference was seen between surgical findings and the Crass position (p = 0.14); however, a difference existed when the modified Crass position was used (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Sonography reliably detects and quantifies supraspinatus tears. Both the Crass and the modified Crass positions reflected the true size of supraspinatus tears in the transverse plane. In the sagittal plane, the Crass position is the more useful to quantify supraspinatus tears because the modified Crass position overestimates the size of such tears.  相似文献

The repair of rotator cuff tears by traditional open subacromial decompression and rotator cuff tendon reapproximation has proved successful in restoring function and decreasing pain, but open rotator cuff repair has some inherent disadvantages. Postoperative detachment of the deltoid repair has been reported and results in significant morbidity. The open technique may also require a longer period of limited motion resulting in greater stiffness. Arthroscopically assisted mini-open repairs and, more recently, completely arthroscopic repairs of the rotator cuff have been developed and increasingly are being applied. Both techniques avoid detachment of the deltoid. The mini-open and arthroscopic approaches to rotator cuff repair have the added benefit of arthroscopic evaluation of the glenohumeral joint. The mini-open technique has the advantage of allowing the direct visualization of the cuff repair and allows surgeons to place the stitches in an open fashion, which is familiar to all surgeons. The mini-open technique also allows the placement of tension-absorbing stitches in the rare cases that they are needed. Mini-open techniques also allow the choice of bone anchors or osseous tunnels for fixation. The completely arthroscopic cuff repair has several potential advantages over the open and mini-open cuff repair techniques; first is the decreased disruption of the soft tissues, which may result in less scarring and adhesions. The procedure is the most cosmetically appealing of the techniques. Reduced postoperative pain is also cited as an advantage but has been demonstrated only in a single, nonrandomized study. Finally, if technical difficulties arise, the conversion to a mini-open repair can be done easily. In a few studies, arthroscopic cuff repair techniques have shown promise as an alternative to mini-open or open repair, but these results have been at the hands of a few surgeons who have extensive experience in arthroscopy of the shoulder. In contrast, the mini-open procedure requires modest arthroscopic skills and has a documented history of success. Nevertheless, arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is a viable and effective technique in the hands of surgeons with adequate skills, and this procedure is likely to become more commonly performed in the future as shoulder arthroscopic skills and instrumentation improve.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of rim-rent rotator cuff tears in a population of patients referred for shoulder MRI and to determine the sensitivity of MRI for the detection of these tears. CONCLUSION: Rim-rent tears are a common type of partial-thickness rotator cuff tear, much more commonly present than has been previously reported. In particular, infraspinatus rim-rent tears are more common than previously believed. Rim-rent tears of the infraspinatus tendon and those involving the anterior-most fibers of the supraspinatus tendon are commonly overlooked on MRI, possibly because of failure to appreciate the high incidence of these types of tears and failure to inspect the anterior-most fibers of the rotator cuff.  相似文献

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. US images of the supraspinatus tendon were evaluated for tendon nonvisualization, abnormal tendon echogenicity, tendon thinning, greater tuberosity cortical irregularity, cartilage interface sign, joint fluid, and subacromial-subdeltoid bursal fluid. US findings were compared with arthroscopic results. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were calculated for each US sign in the diagnosis of full-thickness tendon tear and again for any type of supraspinatus tendon tear. RESULTS: Arthroscopy revealed 21 full-thickness tears, five bursal surface partial-thickness tears, 10 articular surface partial-thickness tears, and 14 patients without tear of the supraspinatus tendon. The presence of greater tuberosity cortical irregularity and joint fluid was most important in the diagnosis of full-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear (sensitivity, 60%; specificity, 100%; positive predictive value, 100%; negative predictive value, 78%; accuracy, 84%). For diagnosis of any type of supraspinatus tendon tear (partial or full thickness), tendon nonvisualization, greater tuberosity cortical irregularity, and cartilage interface sign are most important, although a combination of signs did not improve accuracy. CONCLUSION: Secondary US signs, such as greater tuberosity cortical irregularity and joint fluid, are most valuable in the diagnosis of supraspinatus tendon tear.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to correlate sonographic abnormalities of the rotator cuff with clinical findings in veteran tennis players. One hundred fifty individuals playing competition-level tennis, aged from 35 to 77 years (mean age 55 years), underwent physical and US examinations of their shoulders. The US abnormalities found in the dominant shoulder were compared with those observed in the non-dominant shoulder and in different subsets of players defined by the absence or presence of former and/or current pain. Tears of the long head of the biceps tendon were seen only in dominant shoulders (n=8), and tears (23 complete and 20 partial) of the supraspinatus tendon were observed in 43 dominant vs 16 (3 complete and 13 partial) contralateral shoulders (p<0.001). Subscapularis tendon calcifications were depicted in 23 dominant vs 12 contralateral shoulders (p<0.05). Seventy players had no pain, 49 had former-but-not-current pain, and 31 had current pain. Abnormal thickening (>2 mm) and effusion of the subacromial–subdeltoid bursa and complete tear of the supraspinatus tendon were more frequent in the latter two groups (p<0.001 and p<0.05), respectively. Although 90% of the players with a complete supraspinatus tear had experienced former pain, no relationship was found between current pain and the presence of a supraspinatus tear or tendon calcification. The rotator cuff may present important asymptomatic lesions, such as complete tears of the supraspinatus tendon or calcifications, that do not prevent the playing competitive tennis. The only US abnormality associated with pain was subacromial–subdeltoid bursa effusion.  相似文献
