Objective: Polydeoxyribonucleotide as adenosine receptor (A) agonist has been used in plastic surgery and dermatology related to its regenerative property. The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of polydeoxynucleotide injection in patients with rotator cuff tears by a variety of outcomes including pain, disability, physical performance test, and ultrasonography (US).
Methods: Seventeen patients (9 men, 8 women, age: 57.
Unlabelled: Posterosuperior impingement (PSI) is an underdiagnosed cause of posterior shoulder pain and should be differentiated from classic and external impingement. PSI involves the internal impingement of soft tissues, including the undersurface of the rotator cuff against the posterosuperior labrum when the arm is brought into abduction and external rotation (ABER). Ultrasonography (US) can be useful in the assessment of PSI because of its high resolution and ability to perform during dynamic maneuvers in ABER.
