Summary: | Management of rotator cuff defects that are created in the process of excising calcific deposits for patients undergoing surgical intervention for symptomatic calcific tendinitis is not well defined. Such defects can vary considerably in depth, size, and location, and surgical treatment of these rotator cuff lesions depends on a number of factors. Accurately identifying the location and extent of these calcific deposits is important in ensuring their complete removal, and techniques designed to consistently localize these calcific deposits are also described. |
