About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Rotator Cuff Injuries”.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about rotator cuff injuries. The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint and help to stabilize and move the shoulder. Rotator cuff injuries are a common cause of shoulder pain and disability.

Rotator cuff injuries can occur from a sudden injury or from overuse. Sudden injuries may include falling onto an outstretched arm or lifting a heavy object. Overuse injuries may occur from repetitive overhead motions, such as those used in sports like tennis or baseball, or from certain jobs that require frequent lifting or reaching.

Symptoms of a rotator cuff injury may include pain, weakness, and stiffness in the shoulder. The pain may be worse when lifting or reaching, and may be accompanied by a clicking or popping sensation. In severe cases, a rotator cuff tear may cause weakness or loss of function in the shoulder.

Treatment for a rotator cuff injury depends on the severity of the injury. Mild injuries may respond to rest, ice, and physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles. More severe injuries may require surgery to repair the torn tendon or muscle.

Prevention of rotator cuff injuries involves maintaining good posture and proper body mechanics when lifting or reaching, as well as regular exercise to strengthen the shoulder muscles.

Rotator Cuff InjuriesPartial Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears: Treatment and Repair Techniques OMICS Sports Medicine and Fitness Alex Martusiewicz Coukos, J., Gomberawalla, M., Douros, D., Terry, M.

Overview Anatomy Classification History Examination Imaging Treatment
Slide 3-

Anatomy
Slide 4-

Classification Partial -Bursal vs Articular < 50% thickness > 50% thickness Complete Organize by size Number of muscles involved
Slide 5-

Classification PASTA: Partial Articular Supraspinatus Tendon Avulsion
Slide 6-

History Pain on the lateral aspect of the shoulder may radiate to deltoid insertion anterior acromion with impingement +/- biceps tendonitis Stiffness, especially IR Cannot lie on that side Weakness, instability, crepitus Partial tears more sore and stiffer Acute tear may have inciting event
Slide 7-

Physical Exam Inspection: atrophy, symmetry Palpation: AC, cuff tenderness Range of motion: active, passive Strength: ER and elevation power, lag Provocative: impingement sign, arc of pain
Slide 8-

Physical Exam Specialized Tests Jobe (Empty Can) - Supraspinatus Hawkins – Impingement Lift Off – Subscapularis Neer – Impingement Hornblower – Teres Minor
Slide 9-

Imaging Ultrasound X-ray MRI
Slide 10-

MRI vs Ultrasound Detection and quantification of rotator cuff tears. Teefey et al. JBJS 2004 71 patients with shoulder pain had imaging with U/S and MRI then underwent arthroscopy 46 full thickness tears 19 partial thickness tears 6 had no tear U/S and MRI had comparable accuracy for identifying and measuring size of partial and full thickness tears MRI slightly more sensitive

Imaging
Slide 13-

Treatment Mainstay is conservative Surgery reserved for significantly symptomatic patients who have failed conservative management > 6 -12 months Younger patient (<60) with acute tear Cuff repair within 6 weeks
Slide 14-

Treatment Conservative Treatment Candidates Partial thickness tears Older patients with chronic large tears and extensive cuff muscle atrophy NSAIDs Symptom control ± ↓ inflammation Physical Therapy Rotator cuff strengthening Pain free ROM Strengthening shoulder girdle Improving biomechanics and proprioception Corticosteroid Injections Subacromial injection if impingement thought to be primary cause of symptoms
Slide 15-

Indications for Surgery Failed conservative management 3 to 12 month course of NSAIDs, therapy, corticosteroid injections, activity modification Significant or progressive weakness, esp. acute Early repair if <50 y.o. and full-thickness tear Differential diagnosis confirms weakness is from rotator cuff tear (i.e. MRI findings correlate with exam, rule out other causes)
Slide 16-

Contraindications to Surgery Asymptomatic tear Chronic “massive” irreparable tears Tendon retraction past glenoid rim Fatty degeneration of muscle Increased width of subtrapezial fat pad Frozen shoulder Need ROM pre-op Unwilling or unable to participate in post-op therapy
Slide 17-

Surgical Techniques Debridement Decompression and acromioplasty Repair “Complete the tear” Trans-osseous Trans-tendon
Slide 18-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Rotator Interval: capsule, SGHL, and the coracohumeral ligament that bridge the gap between the supraspinatus and the subscapularis
Slide 19-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Rotator Interval: capsule, SGHL, and the coracohumeral ligament that bridge the gap between the supraspinatus and the subscapularis
Slide 20-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Identify tear Prepare footprint
Slide 21-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Insert anchor through the rotator interval - 5 mm double loaded titanium anchor
Slide 22-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Create subacromial portal Pass two suture limbs through rotator cuff with suture lasso Tie in subacromial space
Slide 23-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair Respects intact tendon and supraspinatus footprint Avoids creating a breach close to the rotator cuff insertion
Slide 24-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair 14 patients retrospectively identified with a PASTA tear who met criteria (< 50% tear, refractory to conservative treatment) - 10 Males, 4 Females - Dominant arm in 11/14 patients - Average age: 56 - Mean clinical follow up: 28 months
Slide 25-

Surgical Techniques -Trans-interval rotator cuff repair ASES Shoulder Score used as an outcome measure - 95.8 out of 100 (95% CI: 91.8- 99.8) 11/14 Patients had complete resolution of pain 92% of patients stated that they would repeat the procedure again
Slide 26-

Conclusions Thorough examination and appropriate imaging are important for diagnosing rotator cuff pathology Important to distinguish between partial and complete tears Conservative management should be attempted for partial tears Trans-interval repair provides reliable pain relief while respecting the intact tendon and supraspinatus footprint
