Mri report - images - Pec tear

Can anyone read these images? Educated comments welcome and appreciated


Latest MRI report takin 4/15/09 Inital MRI takin 3/10/09

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Report:

Left side:

Technique and Findings: Multiplaner multisequence MRI of the left shoulder was performed at 1.5 tesla with comparison exam dated 3/10/09.

The acromion is anterolateral sloping. The acromial clavicular joint however is otherwise normal.

The previously described partial tear of the pectoralis major muscle is again seen (images 32-37, series 5) with fluid surrounding the tendon and marrow edema within the humaral shaft. This is not appreciably change from the comparison examination.

The supraspinatus, infraspinatus and teres minor muscle and tendons are normal. the glenoid labrum is intact. Glenhumeral joint has a normal appearance.

Impression: continued visualization of partial tear of the pectoralis major at its insertion. Interval resolution of intramuscular hematoma within the deltoid muscle. no rotator cuff tear.



Right side :

History of pectoralis major tear, which was not completely visualized on the comparison mri.

No there is significant improvement in the appearanca of the distal pectoralis major tendon, with fibers now seen bridging the previously described tear to its attachment on the bicipital tuberosity.

There is marrow edema within the posterior humeral head which is in keeping a Hill-Sachs impaction fracture. However, the labrum is within normal limits.

the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis and teres minor muscle and tendons are normal. The acromioclavicular joint is unremarkable.
 
is this the result from heavy benching or chest flyes?

wear and tear. Benching / pressing too heavy week in and week out. never took any breaks. 19 months straight, 5-6 days a week. Thats the mistake many make, trying to be so fucking strong. For what? Stupid IMO. I had to learn the hard way. If i cant do 6-8 reps w a certain weight, I wont even attempt it. Its coming along. wasnt a full tear, should heal. Any w experience w this injury or reading mri 's?

Thats one thing alot of people don't learn and is the end of them, that rest is sometimes just as important as intensity. Sometimes your body is telling you enough is enough, let me heal up so i can push harder. Were just impatient fucks, lol.

My training partner is 7 weeks post op from a pec tear. Fortunately like a bicep, often times you can come back even stronger.

The absolute most important thing is that you do exactly what the doc's and rehab people tell you to do - even if it seems stupid. It is a common enough injury that they actually know what they're talking about.

One thing we BBers & PLers have working against us though is the size and density of our muscles in these types of injury. From a surgeon's perspective, its great, because there is more tissue to sew, but from a recovery perspective, there is more tissue to recover and heal.

Very low dose GH (1-2 IU 5 on 2 off) will speed recovery. But this isn't the forum to discuss that.
