Description

Yunjong Choi, Sanghyeon Lee, and Sang-Jin Shin track shoulder recovery after cuff repair in a 2026 paper. Stiffness after surgery can stall a patient's return to function. The team reviewed 352 patients with full-thickness tear repairs.

Stiffness was defined by strict limits on three movement directions. Motion was charted over the early months after surgery. Pain scores and standard shoulder scores were recorded alongside. Patient traits were tested for links to lasting stiffness. Predicting who stays stiff would sharpen rehab planning. Readers learn the typical recovery curve and its warning signs.
