They can be traumatic or degenerative, following repeated microtraumatic events and\/or due to functional overloads typical of a particular work\/sports activity. An important causal and prognostic factor is the age of the patient: usually, the frequency of this condition increases after the age of 40 and is present without symptoms in about 20% of the population.[1] Cigarette smoking increases the risk of injury. [2]\n<p>Symptoms can vary significantly from patient to patient; the typical manifestation is characterized by intense pain, especially at night and during weight-bearing activities associated most often with sensation of weakness\/instability with significant functional limitation.<\/p>\n<p>Clinical diagnosis is performed with dozens of functional tests combined with evaluations of specific instrumental examinations such as radiographs, ultrasound and MRI (Fig.2).<\/p>\n<p>Choosing the type of treatment (conservative or surgical) is complex and must take into account many elements: age of the patient, extent of the injury, presence or absence of associated injuries (associated shoulder instability), and level of work\/sports activity.<\/p>\n<p>Conservative treatment is based on the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and local infiltration with corticosteroids and then hyaluronic acid, in combination, once the pain has subsided, with a muscle-strengthening physiotherapy rehabilitation program [3].<\/p>\n<p>In young and\/or active patients, surgical treatment is preferred. This treatment, once always performed open, can now be done arthroscopically (through small holes with the use of a camera). Arthroscopy allows reinsertion of tendons that have detached in a completely minimally invasive manner (Fig.3).
