What does it mean if someone has subacromial fat effacement of the supraspinatous tendon?
Subacromial fat effacement of the supraspinatous tendon suggests that there is compression of the rotator cuff tendon due to the presence of fat in the subacromial space. This can lead to impingement and inflammation of the tendon, causing shoulder pain and limited range of motion. Treatment may involve rest, physical therapy, or in severe cases, surgical intervention.
What is subacromial subdeltoid bursa?
The subacromial subdeltoid bursa is a small fluid-filled sac located between the acromion (part of the shoulder blade) and the deltoid muscle. Its role is to reduce friction and provide cushioning between these structures, allowing smooth movement of the shoulder joint.
What is a lateral epicondyle enthesophyte?
A lateral epicondyle enthesophyte is a bony projection that forms at the attachment site of tendons in the lateral epicondyle of the elbow. It can develop as a result of repetitive stress or chronic injury to the tendons in that area, such as in cases of lateral epicondylitis or "tennis elbow." This bony growth can contribute to pain and limited range of motion in the elbow joint.
Where is bursa found near the shoulder area?
Bursitis is a condition in which there is an inflammation of the bursa, which is a sac that is located between muscles or tendons of the shoulder. A cause of shoulder bursitis can be overuse of the shoulder joint. This condition can cause pain.
What is posterior calcaneal enthesopathy?
Posterior calcaneal enthesopathy, also known as Haglund's deformity, is a bony growth at the back of the heel bone where the Achilles tendon inserts. It commonly causes pain and inflammation in the heel area, particularly when wearing shoes or participating in activities that put pressure on the area. Treatment may include rest, ice, stretching, orthotics, physical therapy, or in severe cases, surgery.
What is traction enthesophytes?
traction enthesophyte
What is treatment for Enthesophyte?
Treatment for an enthesophyte (a bony growth at the site where a tendon or ligament attaches to bone) typically involves managing symptoms such as pain and inflammation with rest, physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory medications. In severe cases, a healthcare provider may recommend corticosteroid injections or surgical removal of the enthesophyte.
What is the most important and most commonly injured bursa of the shoulder joint?
The subacromial bursa is both the most important bursa in the shoulder joint for reducing friction and the most commonly injured. Inflammation of this bursa, known as subacromial bursitis, can cause pain and restricted motion in the shoulder.
What is enthesophyte quadriceps tendon attachment?
An enthesophyte is a bony outgrowth that forms at the attachment of a tendon or ligament to bone. In the case of the quadriceps tendon, an enthesophyte at its attachment site can be a sign of chronic stress or inflammation in the area, potentially contributing to pain and reduced function in the knee joint. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery.
What is subacromial space?
The subacromial space is a narrow passageway located beneath the acromion, a bony prominence of the scapula (shoulder blade). This space is important for the passage of tendons, such as the rotator cuff tendons, and other soft tissues in the shoulder joint. Impingement or compression of structures in the subacromial space can lead to shoulder pain and dysfunction.
What is edema in the subacromial bursa?
a pain in my shoulder that never goes away
What is the code for injection of the left shoulder with via anterior subacromial approach?

What causes moderate facet joint hypertrophy?
Spurs and hypertrophy of the ac level causes partial of subacromial fat signal

Are adhesions possible after subacromial decompression arthroscopic surgery?
Yes - according to my surgeon. I am not a doctor, but my source is my surgeon who uses a preparation called Hyaluronan which replaces lost synovial fluid after surgery. One of the benifits he cites is a lower instance of adhesions following surgery. He has discussed this in the context of Subacromial Decompression.
