Rotator Cuff Problems. The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that surround the humeral head (ball of joint). The muscles are referred to as the "SITS" muscles-Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres minor and Subcapularis. The muscles function to provide rotation and elevate the arm and give stability to the shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint).

Rotator cuff tear size is graded as: small – less than 1cm; medium 1-3cm; large 3-5cm; massive – greater than 5cm. MRI is useful in assessing the degree of atrophy and fibrosis in the cuff in the setting of massive cuff tears; if the muscle is fibrosed and retracted it is not likely to be repairable.
