Description
We report a rare case of a partial thickness tear of the supraspinatus at the musculotendinous junction in a softball catcher. Preoperative magnetic resonance images of the shoulder showed high signal intensity areas at the musculotendinous junction, along with discontinuity of the articular side of the supraspinatus. Arthroscopic examination revealed articular-side partial tear at the musculotendinous junction. The patient was able to return to playing softball 20 weeks after arthroscopic side-to-side repair.
