Q

What is pathognomonic for a rotator cuff tear on MRI

A

communication between the shoulder joint and subdeltoid bursa (subacromial space)

61
Q

pathogenesis of external impingement

A

repeated arm abduction causes repeated impingement of the supraspinatus tendon between the greater tubercle and acromion causing degeneration and inflammation of the tendon, secondary inflammation of bursa, and pain

Q

What is TUBS?

A

Traumatic anterior shoulder instability
(Traumatic Unilateral dislocations with a Bankart lesion requiring Surgery)

condition with small, undescended scapula; omovertebral bone connects C-spine to scapula

that is associated with Klippel-Field syndrome, scoliosis and kidney disease

neck appears short/full, often decreased ROM

A

Sprengel’s deformity

74
Q

what is a bankart lesion

A

is an avulsion of the anterior labrum and anterior band of the IGHL from the anterior inferior glenoid.

Bony bankart lesion - is a fracture of the anterior inferior glenoid

75
Q
