The Regenerative Role of Gelatin in PLLA Electrospun Membranes for the Treatment of Chronic Massive Rotator Cuff Injuries

Shoulder pain in throwing athletes is reviewed. The anatomy and function of the rotator cuff and the biomechanics of the throwing mechanism are described. Physical examination for rotator cuff injuries, treatment considerations, and a protocol are presented. Failure to recognize glenohumeral instability may limit the success of nonoperative management of rotator cuff injuries in throwing athletes. This article provides a comprehensive review of some of the underlying causes of rotator cuff pathology in throwing athletes. Rotator cuff injuries in throwing athletes are closely associated with glenohumeral instability. The role of glenohumeral instability in the pathogenesis of rotator cuff injuries is described.

Rotator Cuff Injury

Introduction: Rotator cuff injury is one of the common causes of long-term shoulder pain anddisability encountered in the orthopedic clinic. The spectrum of rotator cuff injury includestendonitis, partial tears, and complete tears. They also may influence the development of thedegenerative disease of glenohumeral joint and rotator cuff arthropathy. Material and Methods:The present, prospective study entitled “Role of high-frequency USG in rotator cuff injury and itscomparison with MRI” was conducted in the Department of Radiodiagnosis on a total of 100 patientswho presented with signs and symptoms of shoulder joint injury in Department of Orthopedic whowere then referred for USG and MRI examination to the Department of Radiodiagnosis. Result:Mean age of the patients was 38.26±14.51 years and the majority of patients belonged to the 3rddecade (34%). About 7% of patients belonged to the 2nd decade, 18% of patients each belonged tothe 4th and 5th decades of age group. Only 8% and 7% of patients in the present study belonged toextremes of age i.e. >60 years and <20 years respectively. Conclusion: Based on the findings ofthe present study, it is concluded that rotator cuff injuries are commonly encountered conditions inroutine practice, and males are commonly affected as compared to females.
