Episode Synopsis

This scientific article explores the significant impact of metabolic syndrome on the incidence and recovery of rotator cuff injuries. The authors highlight how key components of metabolic syndrome—hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and obesity—contribute to delayed healing, increased risk of re-injury, and poorer surgical outcomes.Kandikattu S, Aavula M, Pisarski T, Parvizi D, Agrawal DK.
