Rotator cuff specificity of 80% to 90%. A common cause of shoulder pain in rotator cuff impingement syndrome is Tendinosis, which is an age related and most often self limited condition. The rotator interval is a triangular space in the shoulder that is functionally reinforced externally by the coracohumeral ligament and internally by the superior glenohumeral ligament, and traversed by the intra-articular biceps tendon. On imaging, it is defined by the coracoid process at its base, the supraspinatus tendon superiorly and the subscapularis tendon inferiorly. Changes of adhesive capsulitis can be seen at this interval as edema and fibrosis. Pathology at the
Rotator cuff tear bands of six different colors and strengths, a pulley set, and a three-piece, one-meter-long stick. The program is customized, fitting the needs of the individual and altering when necessary. Participants are asked to use their exercise program whether at home, work, or traveling. Several instances occur in which nonoperative treatment would not be suggested: These patients may need to be treated operatively because rotator cuff repair is necessary for restoration of the normal strength required to return to the preoperative, competitive level of function. Finally, those who do not respond to, or are unsatisfied with, conservative treatment should seek a
