The partial tears of the SSC might result from traumatic injury or intrinsic degeneration. Partial SSC tears can range in severity and be classified into different categories based on the location of the tear, size of the lesion, and associated pathology. The tear usually begins from the superolateral margin in the first facet and propagates downwards. It is frequently associated with biceps pathology or anterosuperior lesions. These tears are now increasingly recognized as distinct pathology that requires specific diagnostic and management approaches. The current management approaches are shifting towards operative, as partial SSC tears are increasingly recognized as a distinct pathology. At present, there is no consensus regarding the timing of repair, but the relative tendency of the SSC to retract much faster than other rotator cuff muscles, and difficulty in mobilization, advocates an early repair for SSC irrespective of the lesion size. An associated biceps pathology can be treated with either tenotomy (biceps delamination/erosion) or tenodesis. The techniques of partial SSC repair are constantly improving. There is no reported difference in use of 2-anchor-based conventional single-row (SR), a 3-anchor-based interconnected double-row technique, or a 2-anchor-based interconnected hybrid double-row construct in the repair construct. However, the 2-anchor-based interconnected double-row provides an advantage of better superolateral coverage with leading-edge protection, as it helps in placing the superolateral anchor superior and lateral to the original footprint. A timely intervention and restoration of the footprint will help restore and rehabilitate the shoulder. Future directions should prioritise injury prevention, early diagnosis with clinic-radiological cues and targeted interventions to mitigate risk.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36847,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ISAKOS Joint Disorders & Orthopaedic Sports Medicine","volume":"9 6","pages":"Article 100290"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141443411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He came for consultation a week later with tenderness in his right thigh and impaired gait. A 3 ​cm gap in his right mid-quadriceps muscle and tenderness during resisted knee extension and leg raises with no hip or knee range of motion limitations were observed on physical examination.

Patients who sustain stress fractures have demanding training regimes where periods of rest and immobilisation have unacceptable negative consequences on sports goals and finances. Aside from being an overuse injury, there are various contributing risk factors that put certain individuals at risk of a stress fracture. The main two being nutritional deficiencies and hormonal variations, which have significant effects on bone metabolism and turnover. Historically, treatment of stress fractures focused on conservative strategies such as rest and immobilisation. Calcium and vitamin D deficiencies have been closely linked to stress fractures and so over time supplementation has also played a role in treatment. With the introduction of biologics into orthopaedics, newer treatment strategies have been applied to accelerate fracture healing and perhaps improve fracture callus quality. If such therapies can reduce time spent away from sport and activity, it would be ideal for treating stress fractures. This article aims to offer insights into the evolving landscape of stress fracture management. It investigates the pre-clinical evidence and available published clinical applications. Though fracture healing is well understood, the role of biologics for fracture healing is still indeterminate. Available literature for the use of biologic therapies in stress fractures are restricted and most reports have used biologics as a supplement to surgical fixation in subjects in studies that lack control groups. Randomised control trials have been proposed and registered by a few groups, with results awaited. Assessing individuals for risk factors, addressing hormonal imbalances and nutritional deficiencies seems like an effective approach to addressing the burden of stress fractures. We await better designed trials and studies to accurately determine the clinical benefit of adding biologics to the management of these injuries.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36847,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ISAKOS Joint Disorders & Orthopaedic Sports Medicine","volume":"9 6","pages":"Article 100256"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140867450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
