Arthroscopic Treatment of Partial Rotator Cuff Tears in Shoulder Joint

Peking University Third Hospital50 enrolled

Overview

A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with partial-thickness rotator cuff tendon tears who underwent arthroscopic surgery from August 2006 to December 2011. To evaluate functional outcomes and tendon healing after arthroscopy.

To study the surgical method and clinical effect of arthroscopic treatment of rotator cuff tendon tear. Retrospective analysis was performed on patients with rotator cuff tendon tears who underwent arthroscopic surgery from August 2006 to December 2011. Preoperative X-ray and MRI were performed. Rotator cuff repair was performed during the operation. UCLA shoulder scoring scale was used to evaluate the shoulder joint at preoperative and final follow-up.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The function of shoulder joint was analyzed 1 year after arthroscopy.

The range of motion and strength of the shoulder joint in all directions are evaluated and recorded. Analysis of UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Shoulder Score Scale at 1 year after operation.The UCLA scale has a minimum score of 2 and a maximum score of 35. The higher the score, the better the prognosis of the patients.

Time frame: 1 year after operation

The function of shoulder joint was analyzed 2 years after arthroscopy.

The range of motion and strength of the shoulder joint in all directions are evaluated and recorded. Analysis of UCLA Shoulder Score Scale at 2 years after operation

Time frame: 2 years after operation

The function of shoulder joint was analyzed 5 years after arthroscopy.

The range of motion and strength of the shoulder joint in all directions are evaluated and recorded. Analysis of UCLA Shoulder Score Scale at 5 years after operation

Time frame: 5 years after operation
