Question

A 47-year-old man presents to your office for a 2nd opinion regarding his partial thickness rotator cuff tear. His shoulder pain began insidiously and is only intermittently bothersome. Conservative treatment has been limited thus far. An outside orthopaedist has recommended surgery based on the risk of tear progression. What can you tell him about the natural history of partial thickness rotator cuff tears progressing to full thickness tears?
