SARASQUETE REIRIS, Juan; DOMINGUEZ GASCA, Luis Gerardo y LOBO OROPEZA, Carlos. Ultrasound-guided aspiration puncture vs arthroscopy of the shoulder rotator cuff calcic tendinopathy resolution. Acta méd. Grupo Ángeles [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.180-185. Epub 23-Nov-2021. ISSN 1870-7203. https://doi.org/10.35366/100439.
Introduction:
Shoulder calcic tendinopathy is one of the main causes of shoulder pain of non-traumatic origin in people between 50-60 years of age, causing partial disability in the adult.
Objective:
To compare the therapeutic effectiveness of puncture and ultrasound-guided aspiration (group A) with arthroscopic repair of calcifying tendinitis (group B).
Material and methods:
32 patients treated at the “Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau” in Barcelona, Spain, between february 2017 and february 2019; 17 patients formed group A and 15 group B, assessing results with clinical and radiological improvement and scales of shoulder functionality (CONSTANT and DASH) performed prior to surgery, after six months and one year.
Results:
No statistically significant difference was found between groups A and B in the CONSTANT and DASH scales in the pre-surgery evaluations as well as in the six and 12 month follow-up of the procedures performed; only in two cases of group A (11.7%) were both procedures required.
Conclusions:
Therapeutic effectiveness of puncture and aspiration guided by echocardiography is not statistically inferior to the arthroscopic procedure to resolve the shoulder calcifying tendonitis.
