摘要
In addition to the radiological evaluation, the physical examination represents the main aspect for further therapeutic management of rotator cuff pathology. The leading symptoms of rotator cuff tears are pain, loss of strength, decreased range of motion and instability. A sophisticated clinical assessment allows not only to predict the presence of a rotator cuff tear, but also its general size, functional status and associated pathologies.
