Background & General Considerations Low-Grade Labral/Rotator Cuff Tears: At times athletes collect minor injuries to the rotator cuff and/or labrum. Fraying of these tissues are also called “low-grade” tears. Smoothing

Background & General Considerations Low-Grade/Small Rotator Cuff Tears: At times rotator cuff tissue collects minor injuries or small tears. Fraying of these tissues are also called “low-grade” tears and small

Background & General Considerations Anterior-Inferior and Posterior-Inferior Labral Tears: With a first-time severe dislocation of the shoulder or chronic shoulder instability in multiple directions can create “360 degree” complete tears

Background & General Considerations Anterior-Inferior and Posterior-Inferior Labral Tears: With a first-time dislocation of the shoulder, the anterior inferior labrum is torn, often called a “Bankart Lesion”. If this shoulder

General Considerations Background and General Considerations: Massive Rotator Cuff Tears/Maturation Time: Massive rotator cuff tears are defined as rotator cuff tears with over two of the four rotator cuff tendons

Background & General Considerations Large Rotator Cuff Tears/Maturation Time: Large rotator cuff repairs require a significant amount of protection. Tendon-to-bone healing starts to get competent at 6 weeks but likely
