19. Characteristics of rotator cuff injury on 3T-MR Imaging of the patients with shouder pain
Main Article Content
Abstract
A cross-sectional study on characteristics of rotator cuff tendon injury on 3T-MRI in patients with shoulder pain at Viet-Duc Friendship Hospital from April to August 2021. The results included 114 patients (64 men and 50 women). The mean age is 52±12.1 years old. The most common injury is the supraspinatus tendon, accounting for 66/114 (57.9%) cases, in which the rate of the group 50 years old and over is 45/63 (71.4%) higher than the group under 50 years old, 21/51 (41.2%), (p < 0.01, OR = 3.6; 95%CI: 1.6 - 7.8). Tendon hyperintense was common with 33/114 (28.9%) supraspinatus, 17/114 (14.9%) infraspinatus, 12/114 (10.5%) subscapular and 6/114 (5.3%) biceps tendon. Partial-thickness tear of the rotator cuff tendon was found in 34/114 (29.8%) supraspinatus, 5/114 (4.4%) infraspinatus and 8/114 (7%) subscapular tendons. Full-thickness tear occurred in 13/114 (11.4%) supraspinatus tendons, 3/114 (2.6%) subscapular and 1 case of infraspinatus tendon and 1 case of biceps tendon rupture. Thus, the rotator cuff injury on 3T-MRI in shoulder pain is very diverse.
