Abstract: Purpose To investigate whether arthroscopic lateral acromion resection can sufficiently reduce the critical shoulder angle (CSA) without damaging deltoid muscle insertion. Methods Ninety patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff (RC) repair were retrospectively analysed. According… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00402-017-2707-x
Abstract: IntroductionSecondary cuff failure after shoulder replacement is disabling and often requires additional surgery. Increased critical shoulder angle (CSA) has been found in patients with cuff tear compared to normal subjects. The interobserver reliability of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-48644-w
Abstract: The authors aimed to investigate whether standard acromioplasty can reduce critical shoulder angle (CSA) effectively and to investigate the effects of postoperative CSA on the clinical outcomes and retear rates. Patients are divided in to… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Anteroposterior (AP) radiographs do not necessarily offer the optimal approach to measuring the critical shoulder angle (CSA) due to the malposition of the scapula. Three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) may offer some advantages, including the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0253282
Abstract: Critical shoulder angle (CSA) is the angle between the superior and inferior bone margins of the glenoid and the most lateral border of the acromion and is potentially affected during a rotator cuff tear (RCT).… read more here.

Abstract: In this review, we describe the history of the Critical Shoulder Angle (CSA), the utility of the CSA in identifying rotator cuff tears and glenohumeral osteoarthritis, and the association between the CSA and patient-reported outcomes.… read more here.
