DEFINITION Scapulothoracic crepitus first was described by Boinet4 in 1867. It is characterized by painful scapular motion with associated crepitus during scapulothoracic motion, with or without a clear history of injury or trauma.20,21 Snapping scapula syndrome has also been referred

DEFINITION The subscapularis is one of four muscles making up the rotator cuff. Tears can result from chronic attenuation secondary to age or overuse, but more commonly, they result from trauma. Subscapularis tears commonly occur after a fall on the outstretched arm, traction injuries
DEFINITION Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a mechanical hip disorder defined as abnormal abutment between the femoral head or the femoral head-neck junction and the acetabulum. It was initially described as a distinct physiologic entity by Myers et al,28 who noted abnormal contact
