An injury, implied not to be acute (i.e. is old), of the shoulder...more specifically, the labrum is a cartilaginous (not bone, like the front of the nose) structure that helps the glenoid (a part of the scapula that forms the medial/inside bony shoulder joint) hold the humerus (upper arm bone) in place. To use the term macerated implies chonic wear and tear of the labrum with a loss of its normal shape, usually as a result of osteoarthritis of the glenohumeral joint (loss of the joint cartilage between the humerus and glenoid). A labral tear is a more discrete and definable injury that can be graded as to its severity, more than can be discussed here. If complex it means not simple and linear...if complex and macerated, this implies that the tear is a result of chronic degenerative change, with a loss of the normal labral morphology (shape) and a more definable tear that may or may not cause symptoms. These types of tear/degeration are very common in older patients, and often not symptomatic (or possibly, are not symptomatic because the patient stops the activity that caused the degeration)

What is a stellate tear of the body of the lateral meniscus?

What does no gross labral tear mean?
"No gross labral tear" means that no visible or obvious tear was identified during a clinical examination or imaging study of the labrum, which is a ring of cartilage around the socket of a ball-and-socket joint like the hip or shoulder. It suggests that there is no significant or large tear requiring immediate surgical intervention.
How long does a torn labrum take to heal?
I just went to the doctor last month about a labrum tear. He specializes in shoulders and knees at UCLA and told me this. If it is torn badly enough, it will need surgery. However, a small tear can heal within a few months and within 2 years will be no different than a surgically repaired shoulder. The main problem with a tear of this sort is that it doesn't get an abundant supply of blood which greatly slows down the healing process. He proscribed NSAIDs to manage the pain which have been working wonders.
