摘要: Purpose The rotator cable (RC) is a thickening of the coracohumeral ligament. It extends from ligament to inferior border infraspinatus tendon, with fibres running perpendicularly cuff fibres. According some authors, RC tends thicken age, thus allowing individuals lesion preserve normal shoulder function. We evaluated magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and investigated its possible role in biomechanics affected by lesions.
