Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to identify differences in the morphology of the scapula according to the presence or absence of a rotator cuff tear (RCT). Methods One hundred and three shoulders with and 87 shoulders without RCTs were included in this study. The critical shoulder angle (CSA) and lateral acromion angle in the frontal view and the acromial coverage angle (ACA) and coracoid and scapular spine angle (CSSA) in the lateral view were evaluated using three-dimensional computed tomography. The glenoid anterior tilt, anterior acromial projection angle (AAPA), coracoid process angle, scapular spine angle (SSA) and inferior angle angle (IAA) with respect to the scapular plane were measured in the lateral view. The morphological parameters of the scapula associated with RCT were statistically analysed using a multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results In univariate logistic regression analysis, CSA, ACA, CSSA, AAPA, SSA and IAA were significantly different between shoulders with and without RCTs. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, CSA and IAA were greater in shoulders with RCT and were significantly associated with this condition. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to focus on the relationship between RCT and the scapular body. RCT cases were characterised by a greater curvature of the scapular body in addition to CSA.

A reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) is strongly suggested for patients who suffer from rotator cuff (RTC) arthropathy, where RTC deficiency causes abnormal loading leading to articular cartilage damage. Studies show that 47% of RTSA patients have rotator cuff arthropathy and 27% have some form of osteoarthritis (OA) [1].

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the clinical and functional behavior of patients undergoing cuff tear arthroplasty at different stages of the disease. Methods Cuff tear arthroplasty hemiarthroplasties were performed in 34 patients with rotator cuff arthropathy and associated comorbidities, classified according to Seebauer. The mean age was 76.3 years, and the sample comprised 23 females (67.6%) and 11 males (32.4%). The mean follow-up period was 21.7 months, and evaluations were performed using the Visual Analog Scale for pain and the Constant scale. Results There were no statistically significant differences in the mean reduction in the Visual Analog Scale or in the Constant scale increase between the female and male groups. The variation between the pre- and postoperative Visual Analog Scale and Constant scale evaluations was significant. There was also no statistically significant difference between the Seebauer classification groups regarding the mean Visual Analog Scale reduction, or the mean Constant scale increase. Conclusion Cuff tear arthroplasty shoulder hemiarthroplasty is a good option for rotator cuff arthropathy in patients with comorbidities.
