Magnetic resonance arthrography results that indicate surgical treatment for partial articular-sided supraspinatus tendon avulsion: a retrospective study in a tertiary center.

Conclusion Surgical treatment is commonly performed in PASTA patients whose lesion lengths are grade 3 or who have co-existing tears in the subscapularis or infraspinatus tendon. Radiologists should pay attention to these MRA signs when evaluating PASTA patients. PMID: 28098497 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
