AI Article Synopsis
- - A 27-year-old active-duty sailor sought physical therapy for severe left shoulder pain after injuring himself while sparring the day before.
- - The injury occurred from a left hook, which caused a sudden external rotation force leading to his symptoms.
- - MRI results showed multiple injuries, including a large partial tear of the subscapularis tendon, a labral tear, and a biceps tendon tear with subluxation.
Article Abstract
A 27-year-old active-duty male sailor directly accessed physical therapy for deep left anterior shoulder pain. The patient sustained his injury the previous day, when he threw a left hook into the body of his sparring partner, creating a sudden high-energy external rotation force. Based on the patient's complaint, mechanism of injury, and internal rotation weakness, the examining physical therapist ordered magnetic resonance imaging. The images revealed a large partial tear, with retraction of the subscapularis tendon at the lesser tuberosity, a labral tear, and an intratendon biceps tendon tear with subluxation.

Arthroscopic V-Shaped Double-Pulley Suture-Bridge Repair of Massive Rotator Cuff Tear.

At present, suture bridge is a feasible choice in the treatment of massive rotator cuff tears (MRCTs). However, high tension on the repair site and medial tension during suture tightening and after medial knotting are unavoidable problems in MRCT repair with a suture bridge. Arthroscopic V-shaped double-pulley suture-bridge repair is a pragmatic surgical technique for the repair of MRCTs.

Successful subscapularis repair in stemless shoulder arthroplasty is crucial to reduce complications and improve postoperative function. As stemless shoulder arthroplasty continues to grow in popularity, several subscapularis tendon repair techniques are being developed, with a current trend toward knotless devices and double-row anchor-based constructs. In this article, we present our technique for repair of a subscapularis tendon peel using a suture-capture construct that aids in compression of the tendon onto its footprint and then gradually releases the tension as the capture resorbs and tendon healing occurs.

Rotator cuff tear is a common type of injury. For the treatment of rotator cuff tears, arthroscopic surgery is widely used. However, for massive rotator cuff tears, the rate of recurrent tears after arthroscopic surgical repair is higher.

Background: The effects of the erector spinae plane (ESP) block and interscalene nerve block (ISNB) on arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) have been investigated separately.
Purpose: To evaluate whether additional catheterization for the ESP block can decrease acute postoperative pain and opioid consumption above the ISNB and multimodal oral analgesics in patients after arthroscopic RCR.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.

Background: Socioeconomic status has been recognized as a crucial social determinant of health influencing patient outcomes. Area Deprivation Index (ADI) is a validated measure of an area's socioeconomic status. Limited data exists on the impact of ADI and clinical outcomes and complications following rotator cuff repair (RCR).
