“…Among the patients with a nonhealed tendon after failure of the repair, the sizes of the preoperative and postoperative tears were determined by measuring the longest distance from the tip of greater tuberosity to the lateral edge of the retracted tendon or torn tendon gap on the coronal images, or the widest gap of the torn tendon on sagittal MR images, in millimeters [3]. Preoperative and postoperative MR images were interpreted by an expert musculoskeletal radiologist (J-YH) and an orthopaedic surgeon (T-HK) blinded to patient history.…”

“…Dr. Davidson and Dr. Burkhart published several great articles on this way back in the dark days of 2006 and 2010. 2,3 I would have appreciated this study more if that data were included to help us validate or invalidate those previous conclusions. The important take-away point here is that imaging is, in fact, a useful tool for predicting whether advanced mobilization techniques will be necessary.…”

Are we doing too many reverse total shoulder replacements and not fixing enough repairable rotator cuff tears? A convincing argument can be made for attempting to repair most, not all, very large rotator cuff tears in patients who do not have a significant arthritic change in the shoulder. My experience over more than 25 years of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) is that the only good way to know if it is repairable is to try. But some patients really do not pass my "eyeball test" as to whether they can rehabilitate and heal enough to make an ARCR reasonable. Magnetic resonance imaging scans are useful, mostly to help me with tear pattern recognition, how much time and skill I might need for the repair, and to help me council my patients as to their ultimate functional recovery. I have had surprises both ways: some ARCRs that I thought would be easy turned out to be very challenging and others that I thought would be "mission impossible" turned out to be "mission accomplished"! The rationale for jumping ahead primarily to reverse total shoulder replacements reminds me of certain tax cut plans I have heard talk of lately. Sounds great now (well, maybe the complication rate is a little high) but there might be a price to pay down the road.

Von der rasanten Entwicklung der arthroskopischen Techniken in den letzten Jahren hat nicht nur unser Verständnis für schulterspezifische Pathologien profitiert, sondern es konnten sich auch neue therapeutische Ansätze herausbilden. Die Behandlung eines ausgedehnten Sehnenschadens der Rotatorenmanschette (RM) erfordert eine akkurate präope-rative Abklärung, um dem Patienten eine möglichst genaue Einschätzung der zu erwartenden Operation und deren Resultat geben zu können.Im Folgenden soll eine strukturierte und handgerechte Übersicht (10-PunktePlan) erstellt werden, die dem Operateur als Checkliste und Fahrplan in der arthroskopischen Behandlung von Massenrupturen dienen soll. Unabhängig davon, welche Definition der Massenruptur zur Hand genommen wird, folgt unser chirurgisches Vorgehen bei symptomatischen Patienten mit einem hohen funktionellen Anspruch an ihr Schultergelenk dem Leitsatz "Rekonstruiere, was rekonstruierbar ist" um dadurch primär das Gleichgewicht der transversalen Kräfte wiederherzustellen.
