The vascular supply of the rotator cuff in 22 adult shoulders was studied by way of mixture infusion of gelatin and India ink and vascular cast, in combination with Scanning Electronic Microscopy of the vascular pattern in the supraspinatus tendon. It was found that the vessels of the supraspinatus tendon mainly derive from the anterior circumflex humeral and suprascapular arteries. Macroscopically, an avascular zone or critical zone could be seen on the surface of supraspinatus, and the mean distance of the external edge from the osteo-tendinous attachment was 7.8 mm. The area of the avascular zone increased with age.
通过明胶和印度墨水混合灌注及血管铸型，并结合对冈上肌腱血管模式的扫描电子显微镜观察，对22个成人肩部的肩袖血管供应进行了研究。发现冈上肌腱的血管主要来自旋肱前动脉和肩胛上动脉。宏观上，在冈上肌表面可见一个无血管区或关键区，其外侧边缘距骨 - 腱附着处的平均距离为7.8毫米。无血管区的面积随年龄增长而增加。
