A new perspective on rotator cuff anatomy has allowed a better understanding of the patterns of the different rotator cuff tears. It is essential for radiologists to be aware of these different patterns of tears and to understand how they might influence treatment and surgical approach. Our objective is to review the arthroscopy correlated magnetic resonance imaging appearance of the different types of rotator cuff tears based on current anatomical concepts.

- The study investigates femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) among 120 professional male football players in Spain and compares their hip X-ray findings to a control group of 80 healthy individuals without significant sports activity.
- Results show that a significant percentage (61.6%) of players exhibited Cam-type deformity, compared to only 11.6% in the control group, along with notable occurrences of herniation pits (11.6%) and os acetabuli (13.3%).
- The findings suggest that top-level football players have a higher prevalence of certain hip deformities, indicating the potential impact of rigorous athletic participation on their hip health.
Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocations are a common cause of pain in patients of any age. Athletes who participate in contact sports, such as hockey, football, rugby, and soccer, are particularly susceptible to such injuries. The ACJ has an important role in the function of the upper limb, and its complexity of movement makes it susceptible to acute injuries and chronic dysfunction with debilitating effects that must be treated appropriately and promptly to preserve function.
