CTA in 50 years old female patient complained from left shoulder weakness and pain increased on lifting or rotating her arm. Axial (a) and coronal oblique (b) images show full-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear (star) allow for bursal contrast passage and cancelation of bursal injection. More cephalic axial image (c) with more posterior coronal oblique image (d) and sagittal oblique CT arthrographic image (e) demonstrate interstitial extension into the remaining supraspinatus tendon (red arrow) and thin articular surface infraspinatus tendon tear extending interstitially (white arrow). Arthroscopic image (f) shows full-thickness supraspinatus tendon tear with frayed edges (arrows)
