Load transmission via the supraspinatus cord prevents muscle fatty degeneration, a biomechanical study

Background: Location of small- to medium-sized (<30 mm) rotator cuff tears can predict (supraspinatus [SS]) muscle fatty degeneration. It has been hypothesized that SS fatty degeneration occurs because of loss of force transfer by either the coracohumeral ligament (CHL) or the SS cord. The CHL is...
