Özet: Introduction: There many more anatomical measurements such as the acromiohumeral distance and lateral acromion angle and acromial configuration was reported as might be associated with rotator cuff tear. In our study, we aimed to reveal the effect of acromion index, acromiohumeral distance, lateral acromion angle, critical shoulder angle values and the acromion type in the development of rotator cuff tear. Material and Method: In our retrospective study, 58 patients and 29 asymptomatic volunteers who underwent shoulder magnetic resonance imaging examinations were examined. acromion index, acromion humaral distance, lateral acromion angle and critical shoulder angle were measured and their relationship with rotator cuff tear and acromion types were evaluated. Results: Type III (hooked) of acromial shapes, higher acromion index and critical shoulder angle values, lower acromiohumeral distance and lateral acromion angle values are more frequently seen in rotator cuff tear patients, in our study. Conclusion: Thus, we revealed anatomical malformations that predispose to rotator cuff tear concerning the shoulder joint.
