Abstract

Background. Pain in the shoulder joint is a topical problem of modern traumatology and orthopedics. One of the most common causes of pain arising in the anterior shoulder is instability of the tendon of the long biceps head (SDHB). Purpose. To analyze the frequency of concomitant damage to the rotator and bicipital elements of the rotatorbicipital complex with instability of the tendon of the long biceps head. Material and methods. The article presents the results of a prospective and retrospective analysis of 66 patients over the period from 2004 to 2018. Of these, 51% were men (77.3%), 15 - women (22.7%). The age varied from 19 to 77 years old, the average age was 47.3 ± 15.9 years. The patients were examined according to the algorithm developed by the authors, which is used in everyday practice. Results and conclusions. The figures of descriptive statistics and the statistical analysis carried out using the association coefficient of D. Yul indicate a direct, strong, statistically significant relationship between the damage to the rotator apparatus and the tendon of the long biceps head. The developed algorithm for the diagnosis of traumatic injuries of RBC is simple and highly effective in making a diagnosis in patients with instability of the tendon of the long biceps head.
