Rotator cuff tear characteristics: how comparable are the pre-operative MRI findings with intra-operative measurements following debridement during arthroscopic repair?

ConclusionsThere were significant differences between the pre-operative tear characteristics on MRI and the debrided tendon characteristics during surgery, which were extensive enough to classify the tear in a different category.
