2023年2月7日 · Subscapularis tendon tears are a less common rotator cuff tear, and have been considered more difficult to diagnose pre-operatively (both clinically and radiological) and have been known as a "hidden lesion" 5.

As the largest and most powerful tendon in the rotator cuff, the subscapularis (SSC) tendon is an important component in maintaining transverse force couple balance and plays an important role in the stability of the glenohumeral joint and internal rotation [1].

In the current study, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis regarding the comparison of accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the techniques in diagnosing SSC tendon tears. Also, we performed a systematic review of the classification of SSC tendon tears.

Given the importance of the subscapularis tendon in maintaining stability of the glenohumeral joint and performing internal rotation of the arm, surgical intervention with emphasis on repair may be recommended to eliminate pain and restore strength.

2018年10月10日 · The aim of this chapter is to update the classification of SSC tendon tears, better identify SSC tears on specific clinical exam and radiographic imaging, and their arthroscopic management. Even if lesions are well recognized, arthroscopic SSC repair is a technically demanding procedure with a long learning curve [4].

2021年2月1日 · Subscapularis (SSC) tendons differ from supraspinatus tendons, although both have similar histologic structure comprising two layers with distinct collagen fiber organization. The partial/full-thickness tear classification for the supraspinatus based on tendon structure can be applied to the subscapularis tendon on objective criteria.

2024年2月1日 · The SSC tendon is the largest tendon of the rotator cuff. It consists of 4–7 powerful tendon bundles that form a comma-shaped attachment zone on the humerus lesser tubercle, tapering to the most distal point.

2023年3月15日 · Subscapularis (SSC) tendon tears: diagnostic performance and reliability of magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA) with arthroscopic correlation and comparison with clinical tests.

2022年4月27日 · When evaluating the severity of SSC tendon injury, the combination of reliable predictors can improve the sensitivity and diagnostic performance of MRI. This model provides an individualized probability of risk prediction, which is convenient for clinicians to identify patients at high risk for SSC …

2022年4月27日 · As the largest and most powerful tendon in the rotator cuff, the subscapularis (SSC) tendon is an important component in maintaining transverse force couple balance and plays an important role in the stability of the glenohumeral joint and internal rotation [1].
