Summary
This study translated a 5-question survey called the Baltimore Orthopedic Subscapularis Score (BOSS) into Turkish. The survey helps doctors tell apart a specific type of rotator cuff tear. Researchers tested it with 42 Turkish-speaking patients to make sure it works as well as the original English version.
