Prospective Comparative Study

Purpose: the aim of the present study was to verify the differences in the clinical outcomes of two arthroscopic techniques used to treat calcifying tendinitis of the shoulder: needling versus complete removal of the calcium deposit and tendon repair. Methods: from September 2010 to September 2012, 40 patients with calcifying tendinitis of the rotator cuff were arthroscopically treated by the same surgeon using one of the two following techniques: needling (Group 1) and complete removal of the calcium deposit and tendon repair with suture anchors (Group 2). Both groups followed the same rehabilitation program. The two groups were compared at 6 and 12 months of follow-up for the presence of residual calcifications and for the following clinical outcomes: Constant score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Evaluation Form (ASES) shoulder score, University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder rating scale, Simple Shoulder Test (SST) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Results: all the clinical scores (Constant, ASES, UCLA, SST and VAS scores) improved significantly between baseline and postoperative follow-up, both at 6 and at 12 months. no differences at final follow-up were found between the two groups. Conclusions: both the techniques were effective in solving the symptoms of calcifying tendinitis of the shoulder. Clinical scores improved in both groups. Residual calcifications were found in only a few cases and were always less than 10 mm. Level of evidence:Level II, prospective comparative study.

Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy

Abstract Background shoulder pain is the third most common musculoskeletal complaint. And rotator cuff muscles tendinopathy is one of the most common causes for shoulder pain. Aim of the Work to evaluate the effectiveness of the percutaneous ultrasound guided PRP injection in improving or treating chronic Rotator Cuff muscles tendinopathy. Patients and Methods this study was conducted on 33 patients presented to Police Hospital Nasr City and diagnosed as cases of rotator cuff tendinopathy for more than 6 months and not responding to NSAIDs. Results there is high significant improvement of the ultrasound findings and clinical manifestations of patients as regard pain, range of motion and power comparing to the base line start. According to this study, PRP was found to be more effective on the long term then short term “comparing results after one and five month”. Conclusion ultrasound guided PRP injection is a safe and an effective treatment modality for rotator cuff tendinopathy as evidenced by decreased pain and improved range of motion across the shoulder joint after the application and follow up of the PRP.
