Download scientific diagram | Modes of rotator cuff failure. Notes: ( A ) Intact repair on MRI. Note the position of the musculotendinous (MT) junction at the midpoint of the humeral head. ( B ) Failure with defect on MRI. Note the defect at the greater tuberosity and the significantly retracted position of the MT junction. ( C ) Failure with continuity on MRI. Note the continuous tissue extending to the greater tuberosity despite significant retraction of the MT junction. White arrows in A–C show position of the MT junction.
