title: Editorial Commentary: Results of Biplanar Fluoroscopy With 3-Dimensional Analysis in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tears Challenge the Concept of Superior Translation of the Humeral Head and Must Be Interpreted With Caution.
abstract: Kinematic analysis of patients with rotator cuff tears shows unexpected inferior, rather than superior, translation of the humeral head. This paradox challenges conventional thought, but limitations addressed by the authors temper the results and leave the question open for future study.
