Clinical Study on Diagnostics and Outcome of Ruptures of the Subscapularis After Arthroscopic Refixation

November 4, 2020 updated by: PD Dr. med. Thomas Tischer, University of Rostock

Prospective Multicenter Trial on Diagnostics and Outcome of Ruptures of the Subscapularis After Arthroscopic Refixation

The purpose of the trial is to optimize the diagnostics of subscapularis tendon tears and as the circumstances require to found a new classification.

The prime objective is a comparison of the conclusive of the clinic check-up, the sonographic and magnetic resonance tomography findings.

The secondary objective is to detect the correlation of the outcome with the age , the gender, the pathogenesis and attendant injuries.
