Abstract
The practice of sport can be a source of shoulder pain, the pathologies encountered varying according to the type of sport, the level and intensity of the practice, the age of the athlete and the traumatic context or not. In a traumatic context, in an athlete under 35 year old, rotator cuff injuries are less common than fractures, instability, acromioclavicular lesions, or neurological lesions (motor sports). In the older patient, lesions of the rotator cuff are the most frequent. In a micro-traumatic context, the pathologies encountered (rotator cuff, canal syndromes) are linked to repetitive gestures in armed and throwing sports (Tennis, Handball, Volley Ball, Javelin or even Baseball) or to technical errors. It is in this context that we will encounter rotator cuff lesions, even in young athletes. Their frequencies increase with intensity and the number of year of practice.
