퇴행성 질환으로 찾아오는 어깨 통증. 이러다 말겠지 했는데, 시간이 지날수록 극심한 통증이 끊이지 않는다. 대부분 오십견이라고 자가진단 하는데, 비슷한 증상을 보이지만 오십견일 수도, 회전근개손상일 수도 있다.

회전근개의 치료의 방침은 거의 전층 파열인 부분파열과 전층파열이고 봉합이 불가능하거나 봉합의 비적응증을 제외하고는 모두 수술로 봉합하여주는 것이 좋으며 그 방법으로는 관절경과 관절경하 miniopen 술식이 적절한 봉합방법으로 생각된다. 봉합의 기본적인 원칙은 최대한 파열된 건의 anatomic footprint reconstruction과 force couple의 balancing (견갑하근과 극하근건의 복원)이 중요하며 적절한 재활과 함께 동반 시 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose : To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the subacromial bursoscopy with glenohumeral air infusion technique for detection of the full thickness tear which we used to think as a partial thickness tear, because it was hidden by bursal tissue. Materials and methods : We chose 65 cases and divided them into 2 groups. The group I was 18 cases with partial thickness rotator cuff tears on glenohumeral arthroscopic evaluation, and the group 2 was 37 cases with full thickness rotator cuff tears which were repaired. We inflated the glenohumeral Joint with 50-100ml of air and observed air bubble leakage simultaneously on bursoscopy. Results : In group I, we could detect air leakage in 3 cases and found that it was full thickness tear. In group II, 2 cases revealed too much air leakage proved that it was incomplete repair and was in need of additional suture. Conclusion : Air infusion technique is though to be a valuable method in differentiation between the partial and full thickness tear and for evaluation of the security of the repair.

Purpose: Our purpose was to retrospectively analyze clinical results of subpectoral tenodesis of the proximal biceps tendon using an interference screw. Materials and Methods: We reviewed 23 cases of patients receiving tenodesis of the proximal biceps tendon between January 2008 and January 2009 for whom we had follow-up data for at least 1 year. Twenty-three cases were operated on using subpectoral tenodesis; 16 of these cases had a rotator cuff tear. The results were judged using a visual analog scale (VAS), ASES, tenderness on the biceps groove, fixation failure and the degree of deformity (BAD). Results: VAS and ASES scores were significantly improved in all patients by the time of the final observation. There were no significant complications or fixation failures. The patients without a tear of the rotator cuff had a better result than patients with a tear of the rotator cuff, but the difference between the two groups was not significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: In patients with pathology of the long head of the biceps brachii, benefits of subpectoral interference screw tenodesis include pain relief, maintenance of functional biceps, muscle strength, and cosmesis. Subpectoral biceps tenodesis using interference screw fixation appears to be a promising, reproducible, reliable technique for addressing anterior shoulder pain related to pathology of the long head of the biceps brachii.

Purpose: To evaluate follow-up after the clinical results of arthroscopic assisted tenodesis of the proximal biceps tendon using an interference screw. Materials and Methods: We reviewed 30 cases of patients receiving tenodesis of the proximal biceps tendon between January, 2008 and January, 2010 who treated with arthroscope. The results were judged by VAS, ASES, tenderness in the biceps groove, fixation failure and the degree of deformity. Results: VAS, ASES scores increased by a statistically significant during the final observation in all patients than before surgery (p<0.05). For those with rotator cuff tear had low ASES results (p<0.05), respectively. But, tenderness in the biceps groove was 17% (5 cases), pepeye deformity and incresead BAD (biceps apex distance) were 10% (3 cases). Conclusion: Arthroscopic tenodesis of the proximal biceps tendon using an interference screw to patients with proximal lesion in their biceps tendon, can achieve good results, but it is possible to groove tenderness and popeye deformity.

Purpose: With the better understanding of cuff function, partial repair or "force couple repair" for treating massive irreparable rotator cuff tear has gained some popularity. However, there were few reports on the results of partial repair. The purpose of this study was to report the clinical outcome of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears who received arthroscopic force-couple repair or partial repair. Materials and Methods: From June 2005 to Feb 2008, arthroscopic partial repairs were performed for 16 irreparable rotator cuff tears among the 101 large to massive rotator cuff tears that were operated on. Clinical and radiographic evaluation were done at the final follow-up. Results: There were 7 men and 9 women with a mean age of 66.6 years. The mean follow-up period was 27.3 month (range: 15-46). The pain VAS improved from 4.4 ($\pm2.50$) to 2.1 ($\pm2.26$) and the functional VAS improved from 46.9 ($\pm16.64$) to 70.0 ($\pm22.80$). The ASES score improved from 39.0 ($\pm10.80$) to 80.3 ($\pm16.78$) and the KSS score was 81.9 ($\pm16.74$) at the final follow-up. The acromio-humeral distance was 6.6 cm ($\pm1.74$) preoperatively and 6.2 cm ($\pm1.69$) postoperatively without significant change (p=0.3874). The degenerative changes had no statistically progressed (p=0.2663). Conclusion: Partial repair for massive rotator cuff injury patients showed improvement in the clinical score without progression of arthritic change at a mean of 2.3 years follow-up.
