Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Biomedical Research

Background:

  • Rotator cuff tears are a common cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction.
  • Understanding the foundational literature is essential for advancing treatment strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and characterize the 50 most cited articles concerning rotator cuff tears.
  • To provide a curated list of seminal works for clinicians and researchers.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic search of the Web of Science database was conducted using terms 'rotator cuff' and 'tear'.
  • Key article characteristics including authors, publication year, journal, origin, article type, and level of evidence were extracted.

Main Results:

  • The 50 most cited articles received between 253 and 1558 citations.
  • The majority (46/50) were clinical research, predominantly case series (23/46).
  • Level IV evidence was the most common (31/50), with 9 articles introducing new methods or classifications.

Conclusions:

  • This review highlights the most influential publications in rotator cuff tear research.
  • These highly cited articles serve as essential references for developing and refining rotator cuff tear treatments.
