Abstract:
Based on their clinical experience with the two cases described, the authors analyze the association between surgically treatable tear of the rotator cuff and neurologic pathology. A semeiologic sign is emphasized, which may be of help in differential diagnosis involving isolated lesion of the rotator cuff. Furthermore, after a review of the literature, the authors express doubts as to the type of surgical treatment to be carried out.
