A tear of the supraspinatus is a tear of the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Arthroscopic surgery is the repair to repair for this.
No full thickness/partial articular tear of the supraspinatus tendon
I am recently diagnosed with a partial tear of the supraspinatus tendon on my right shoulder. My Orthopaedic surgeon recommended a non-operative treatment and advised that it would take about 3-6 months for it to recover.
surgery
get a cold spoon from the fridge and put it on the affected area
The supraspinatous is one of the 4 tendons that form the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Full-thickness means the tear is completely through thesupraspinatoustendon. If not full-thickness, it would be categorized as partial.
Yes
The supraspinatous is one of the 4 tendons that form the rotator cuff of the shoulder. Full-thickness means the tear is completely through thesupraspinatoustendon. If not full-thickness, it would be categorized as partial.
What does it mean there is a full thickness tear of the supraspinatus tendon mesuring 2.3 cm in the mediolateral dimension and approximately 2.9cm in the AP dimension. The tendon is retracted to a point lying beneath the lateral aspect of the acromion. Therer is superior sublucation of the humeral head relative to the glenoid.
This is indicative of a partial tear in the tendon. It is likely that the patient is experiencing pain in or around the region. Consult should be made with an orthopedic surgeon for evaluation and treatment as necessary and appropriate.
no
Partial tears are rare. In theory, they have some healing capacity, but personally, i doubt it. This does NOT mean (reconstructive) surgery is needed though. It also does NOT mean symptoms (such as pain, reduced mobility, swelling, instability...) won't get better. the tear measure 13 mm in the sagittal plane by 16 mm in the coronal plane
well no
