Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between the clinical outcome and the cuff integrity following open repair in large and massive rotator cuff tears using ultrasonography as an imaging modality. Material and Methods: From November 2001 to April 2005, 17 cases(16 patients) who had open repair of tear measuring more than 3cm were assessed with minimal follow-up of 12 months in this study. 6 cases had a large tear and 11 cases a massive tear. There were 6 men and 11 women with a mean age of 52 years at surgery (range, 33 to 72 years). The evaluation consisted of the preoperative and postoperative shoulder scores according to UCLA shoulder scoring system and Visual analogue scale (VAS). Ultrasonography was performed by a experienced musculoskeletal physician at a minimum of 12 months postoperatively to evaluate the postoperative cuff integrity. Results: Retear were detected in four of seventeen cases. Regardless of the presence of recurrent tear, 14 cases had UCLA score of more than 29 points (good grade). All 17 had an improvement in the functional score, which increased from an average of 15.1 to 31.2 points. All cases showed pain relief and five cases had no pain. Sixteen cases except one had the range of motion of forward elevation above $90^{\circ}$. Conclusion: Open rotator cuff repair in large and massive tears showed low retear rate. At a minimum of twelve months follow-up, all cases had improvement on UCLA score, pain relief, increased range of motion of the shoulder regardless of retear. And the correlation between recurrent tear and function score was not statistically significant.

목적: 대형 및 광범위 회전근 개 파열 환자에서 개방적 봉합술 후 초음파를 이용하여 임상적 결과와 회전근 개 연속성(integrity)의 연관성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년 11월부터 2005년 4월까지 3 cm 이상의 회전근 개 파열로 개방적 봉합술을 시행한 후 최소 12개월 이상 추시 관찰이 가능했던 16명 17예를 대상으로 하였다. 6예가 대형 파열, 11예가 광범위 파열이었다. 대상 환자는 남자가 6예, 여자가 11예였고, 수술시 평균 나이는 52세 ($33{\sim}72$세)였다. 결과의 판정은 UCLA 견관절 점수와 시각적 아날로그 점수(visual analogue scale, VAS)을 이용하였으며, 술 후 회전근 개의 연속성을 평가하기 위해 숙련된 근골격계 방사선과 의사가 최소 술 후 12개월째에 견관절 초음파를 시행하였다. 결과: 17예중 4예에서 재파열이 관찰되었으며, 재파열의 여부와 관계없이 14예에서 UCLA 점수가 29점(양호)이상을 보였다. UCLA 점수는 술 전 평균 15.1에서 술 후 31.2점으로 호전되었다. 전례에서 기능 점수의 향상과 통증의 감소를 보였으며, 5예에서는 전혀 통증이 없었다. 1예를 제외한 16예에서 90도 이상의 견관절의 전방 거상이 가능하였다. 결론: 최소 12개월 추시 관찰 소견상에서 대형 및 광범위 회전근 개 파열의 개방적 봉합술은 재파열률이 낮았으며, 전례에서 재파열 여부와 상관없이 UCLA 점수의 향상, 동통 감소 및 견관절 운동 범위의 증가를 보였다. 한편 재파열 여부와 견관절 기능 점수 사이에 통계적으로 유의한 연관성은 없었다.
