Background: Martinel et al described an intraoperative ultrasound technique to easier identify calcification (CA) under arthroscopy. Our hypothesis was that intraoperative ultrasound monitoring allowed better evacuation of calcific tendinopathy. Our aim was to determine whether ultrasound monitoring improved the short-term clinical and radiological outcomes of calcific tendinopathy.

Hypothesis: The objective of this study was to improve our understanding of the pathogenesis and symptoms of ganglion cysts (GCs) in the spinoglenoid notch. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) the labral tears responsible for these cysts are mainly degenerative and nontraumatic, (2) spinoglenoid cysts are early magnetic resonance image (MRI) markers of eccentric posterior glenoid wear.
Materials And Methods: This was a descriptive diagnostic study.
