Excerpt

Myxoid degeneration is commonly found in various attachment points of tendon or ligament to bone during the middle third of a patient’s life, regardless of his or her activity level [3]. Enthesopathies are characterized by a benign, self-limiting course [1, 4, 6], although some tendons — often previously asymptomatic — rupture and rotator cuff tendinopathy can progress to a large defect that leads to arthropathy. “Overuse” and “microtears” are appealing concepts that do not seem plausible given the epidemiology and natural history of most enthesopathies. …
