Published: May 2021

PASTA (partial articular supraspinatus tendon avulsion) lesions are a subset of partial rotator cuff tears that are commonly treated by surgeons. Multiple surgical techniques exist for managing these lesions, including debridement, transtendinous repair, and completion of the tear and repair. Each of these techniques provides its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and currently there is no consensus on which method provides the best clinical outcomes or ease of procedure. Here, we present our repair technique for PASTA lesions, which involves a bursal split that takes the advantages of previous techniques by allowing improved visualization of the footprint and suture passing while avoiding the takedown any of Sharpey's fibers.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of diagnosing delaminated tears and ultrasonic characteristics on real-time dynamic ultrasound.

Materials And Methods: We enrolled 143 consecutive patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair between April 2020 and January 2021. All patients were examined using real-time dynamic ultrasound of the shoulder within 2 weeks before arthroscopy.

(1) Background: A delaminated tear is described as a horizontal split in the tendon substance. This review summarizes the clinical and radiologic characteristics of delaminated tears of the rotator cuff. (2) Methods: Initial radiological characteristics of a delaminated tear include the horizontal component of a partial-thickness tear determined using magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography.

To gain more information about the nature of virus factories (VFs), we used a recombinant infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) expressing split-GFP11 tagged to the polymerase (VP1) that we have previously shown is a marker for VFs in infected cells expressing GFP1-10. We found that VFs colocalized with 5-ethynyl uridine in the presence of actinomycin, demonstrating they contained newly synthesized viral RNA, and VFs were visible in infected cells that were fixed and permeabilized with digitonin, demonstrating that they were not membrane bound. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) a region of interest within the VFs occurred rapidly, recovering from approximately 25% to 87% the original intensity over 146 s, and VFs were dissolved by 1,6-hexanediol treatment, demonstrating they showed properties consistent with liquid-liquid phase separation.
