Torn tendons were structurally different to the supraspinatus (young) control group but only with a larger mean angle between fibrils in the medium and massive full thickness tear groups (Fig. 3), and a shorter crimp length in the small full thickness tear group.
Samples were collected inter-operatively from supraspinatus tendons containing small, medium, large and massive full thickness tears (n = 33).
The treatment of massive full-thickness burns with engineered skin substitutes has shown promise in clinical trials.
The purpose of this study was twofold, 1) to examine clinical outcomes following complete or partial repair of large or massive full-thickness rotator cuff tear, and 2) to explore the value of clinical and surgical factors in predicting reparability.
The purpose of this study was therefore twofold, 1) to examine clinical outcomes following complete or partial repair of large or massive full-thickness rotator cuff tear, and 2) to explore the value of clinical and surgical factors in predicting reparability.
For hydrate film growth in thickness, massive apophyses occurred and developed in the outer surface of the hydrate film, indicating an outward water transfer through the film.
This new full-scale tool will be dedicated to infield evaluation of: opaque and transparent elements, light-weight and massive façades, different thickness and heights and different geometry of the indoor environment.
In a case series with a minimum 2-year follow-up of reconstruction of irreparable massive or full-thickness 2-tendon rotator cuff tears using Conexa, significant improvement in pain, range of motion, strength, and subjective outcome measures in patients with minimal glenohumeral arthritis were reported (Gupta et al. 2013).
A full-thickness, massive supraspinatus and infraspinatus tear was induced in adult T-cell deficient rats.
The internal structure follows the characteristics for lava lobe morphology in general, with an upper vesicular crust forming half to one third of the total thickness, a massive core with abundant vesicle cylinders, and a thin basal vesicular crust.
