Overview

Cross-sectional study shows significant association of rotator cuff injury with type II and type III acromion morphology in young adult Filipinos, indicating possible early intervention opportunities.

Key Points

  • Type II and Type III acromion morphologies are significantly associated with a higher prevalence of rotator cuff injury.
  • Out of 132 patients, 58.3% were found to have rotator cuff injury, including various severities.
  • MRI scans conducted on patients with shoulder pain were reviewed to assess acromion morphology and injury presence.
  • Recognizing specific acromial types may help identify individuals at increased risk for rotator cuff injury.
