[Management of rotator cuff disorders. How to choose the most appropriate treatment option for my patient ?].

Shoulder pain in the context of rotator cuff disorders is a frequent source of medical consultation. A wide range of therapeutic options is reported in the literature. Non- or minimally invasive treatments include physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory medication, and infiltration of corticosteroids or platelet-rich plasma. Surgical treatments include subacromial debridement, long head of the biceps tenotomy/tenodesis, rotator cuff repair, superior capsular reconstruction, and tendon transfers. Reverse shoulder arthroplasty completes the therapeutic arsenal. Guiding and advising the patient in the face of all these options can therefore be challenging. This article aims to summarize the clinical, demographic, and imaging characteristics useful in guiding and choosing the most appropriate treatment option for each patient.
