Muscle Degeneration Induced by Sequential Release and Denervation of the Rotator Cuff Tendon in Sheep Open
Background: In a sheep rotator cuff model, tenotomy predominantly induces fatty infiltration, and denervation induces mostly muscle atrophy. In clinical practice, myotendinous retraction after tendon tear or lateralization after tendon rep…

Influence of the site of acromioplasty on reduction of the critical shoulder angle (CSA) – an anatomical study Open
For comparison of pre- and postoperative CSA, the exact orientation of the X-ray and the spatial orientation of the scapula must be as identical as possible. Anterolateral AP may not sufficiently correct CSA in scapulae with great acromial…

Critical shoulder angle: Acromial coverage is more relevant than glenoid inclination Open
It is still unknown whether glenoid inclination or lateral acromial roof extension is a more important determinant for development of rotator cuff tears (RCT) or osteoarthritis (OA) of the shoulder. It was the purpose of this study, to eva…
