Article Synopsis
- - This study examined how the cause of rotator cuff injuries (RCIs)—either traumatic or non-traumatic—affects the recovery outcomes after surgical repair.
- - A total of 73 patients were divided into a traumatic group (31 patients) and a non-traumatic group (42 patients), with evaluations conducted both before and after surgery to assess factors like shoulder mobility and muscle strength.
- - Findings showed that while the non-traumatic group had better initial scores and longer disease duration, post-surgery outcomes were similar across both groups; factors like full-layer tears and fat infiltration were identified as significant predictors of recovery success.
