Type A: isolated bundle tear of the supraspinatus; Type B: Type A + superior bundle tear of the infraspinatus; Type C: Type B + middle bundle tear of the infraspinatus; Type D: Type C + entire bundle tear of the infraspinatus; Type E: Type D + entire bundle tear of the teres minor.

a

Significant differences between intact rotator cuff and subscapularis-torn models (p < .05).

b

Significant differences between intact rotator cuff and subscapularis-repaired models (p < .05).
