Creation of a Pre-operative Score, the HASS Score, for Injuries Reliable Diagnosis of Long Biceps Tendon

Sponsor: GCS Ramsay Santé pour l'Enseignement et la Recherche

Summary

The long biceps tendon (LBT) has a particular anatomical pathway, making it fragile due to repeated microtrauma or trauma which can lead to chronic lesions of LBT. Current issue with this pathology is the absence of preoperative effective clinical and paraclinical tools, allowing confirmed diagnosis, in particular because of its entanglement with other pathologies. This diagnostic uncertainty generates an approximation for LBT therapeutic indications so that therapeutic indications are frequently finalized during glenohumeral arthroscopy. Having a reliable and reproducible diagnostic tool for LBT pathologies would allow an improvement in their surgical load management . In this context, this research is based on the hypothesis that the construction of a pre-operative score, the HASS score, combining pre-operative clinical and paraclinical data would allow to obtain a reliable diagnosis of LBT injuries.
