Impact of cardiovascular risk factor on the prevalence and severity of symptomatic full-thickness rotator cuff tears

Abstract: Cardiovascular risk factors have a significant role in the pathology of RC tears. The prevalence of RC tears is greater in patients who smoke or have dyslipidemia. Their severity is greater in patients who smoke, have high blood pressure or have experienced at least one CV event. The next step will be to study how these factors affect tendon healing, as this information could change our indications for cuff repair.

“…Patients with rotator cuff tears had a higher prevalence of hypercholesterolaemia (p=0.02), increased triglyceride levels (p=0.02) and increased LDL levels (p=0.03) than patients without rotator cuff tears 6. Djerbi et al 14 noted that patients with dyslipidaemia had significantly higher odds of rotator cuff tears, independent of all other variables (OR 4.9, p<0.00001). In a large longitudinal, population-based study involving 498 678 participants, 26 664 patients developed rotator cuff disease and hyperlipidaemia was identified as an independent risk factor for developing rotator cuff disease (HR=1.48, p<0.0001) 21…”
