dc.description.abstractBackground Subacromial impingement syndrome is one of the most common causes of painful shoulder in the middle-aged and elderly population. Coracoacromial ligament (CAL) degeneration is a well-known indicator for subacromial impingement. Purpose To examine the relationship between CAL thickness on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), arthroscopic CAL degeneration and types of rotator cuff tears. Material and Methods Video records of patients who underwent arthroscopic shoulder surgery between 2015 and 2021 were retrospectively scanned through the hospital information record system. In total, 560 patients were included in this study. Video records of the surgery were used to evaluate the grade of coracoacromial ligament degeneration and the type of cuff tear. Preoperative MRI was used to measure CAL thickness, acromiohumeral distance, critical shoulder angle, acromial index, and acromion angulation. Results Significant differences were observed between grades of CAL degeneration in terms of CAL thickness (P < 0.001). As CAL degeneration increases, the mean of CAL thickness decreases. According to the results of post-hoc analysis, the mean CAL thickness of normal patients was significantly higher than those of patients with full-thickness tears (P = 0.024) and massive tears (P <0.001). Patients with articular-side, bursal-side, and full-thickness tears had significantly higher CAL thickness averages than patients with massive tears. Conclusion This study showed that the CAL thickness decreases on MRI as arthroscopic CAL degeneration increases. High-grade CAL degeneration and therefore subacromial impingement syndrome can be predicted by looking at the CAL thickness in MRI, which is a non-invasive method.en_US
