  • Title: Glenohumeral interposition of a torn rotator cuff in a young motorcyclist.
    Author: Rickert M, Loew M.
    Journal: Arch Orthop Trauma Surg; 2006 Apr; 126(3):184-7. PubMed ID: 16456661.
    Abstract:
    This report describes the rare case of a traumatic rotator cuff tear in a young patient which led to a pseudo-paralyzed shoulder by interposition of the tendon stump into the glenohumeral joint. The patient underwent an open rotator cuff repair and regained an almost normal shoulder function after 12 weeks. A review of the literature is presented.
