71-year-old female with shoulder pain. Evaluate for cuff tear. ROTATOR CUFF: There is a partial thickness undersurface tear of the anterior fibers of the supraspinatus tendon at the level of its insertion on the greater tuberosity measuring approximately 6 mm in the AP dimension without significant retraction. Additionally, more posteriorly there is a partial-thickness undersurface tear of the supraspinatus measuring approximately 12 mm in the AP dimension, involving approximately 50% of the tendon width, which extends posteriorly to involve the anterior fibers of the infraspinatus tendon without significant retraction. Supraspinatus tendon appears thickened with associated intermediate signal abnormality consistent with moderate tendinosis. The supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles appear intact. The teres minor muscle and tendon appear intact. There is a small interstitial tear of the subscapularis tendon at the level of the myotendinous junction. The subscapularis muscle appears intact.SUPRASPINATUS OUTLET: There is a trace amount of fluid within the subacromial subdeltoid bursa.GLENOHUMERAL JOINT AND GLENOID LABRUM: There is heterogeneity and increased signal abnormality within the anterior and posterior superior glenoid labrum suggesting degenerative tearing. There is near full-thickness to full-thickness articular cartilage degeneration along the glenoid with associated subchondral cyst formation. There are subchondral cysts within the humeral head. There is osteophyte formation about the glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joints.BICEPS TENDON: There is a small amount of fluid within the tendon sheath of the long head of the biceps which may represent fluid extension to the glenohumeral joint. ADDITIONAL
1. Partial-thickness tearing of the rotator cuff without evidence of a full-thickness tear.2. Moderate degenerative changes affecting the glenohumeral joint.3. Other findings as described above.
