Biological augmentation of rotator cuff repair using bFGF-loaded electrospun poly(lactide-co-glycolide) fibrous membranes
Clinically, rotator cuff tear (RCT) is among the most common shoulder pathologies. Despite significant advances in surgical techniques, the re-tear rate after rotator cuff (RC) repair remains high. Insufficient healing capacity is likely the main factor for reconstruction failure. This study reports on a basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-loaded electrospun poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) ...
متن کاملBiological Augmentation of Rotator Cuff Repair with Endothelial Progenitor Cells
Introduction: Acute and chronic rotator cuff tears represent a substantial clinical burden in our society and remain an unsolved problem in orthopaedics. Despite the evolution of minimally-invasive surgical techniques for rotator cuff repair, including mini-open and arthroscopic approaches, failure of surgically repaired rotator cuff tears to heal continues to represent a significant problem. E...
متن کاملAugmentation techniques for rotator cuff repair.
INTRODUCTION There is a high rate of recurrence of tear and failed healing after rotator cuff repair. Several strategies have proposed to augment rotator cuff repairs to improve postoperative outcome and shoulder performance. We systematically review the literature on clinical outcome following rotator cuff augmentation. SOURCES OF DATA We performed a comprehensive search of Medline, CINAHL, ...
متن کاملRegeneration of rotator cuff tear using electrospun poly(d,l-Lactide-Co-Glycolide) scaffolds in a rabbit model.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate an application of poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) scaffold created by electrospinning in a rabbit rotator cuff defect model. METHODS Forty-two Japanese white rabbits were used in this study. Defects of the infraspinatus tendon were created, and the PLG scaffolds were implanted. Contralateral infraspinatus tendons were reattached without c...
متن کاملAugmentation of Rotator Cuff Repair With Soft Tissue Scaffolds
BACKGROUND Tears of the rotator cuff are one of the most common tendon disorders. Treatment often includes surgical repair, but the rate of failure to gain or maintain healing has been reported to be as high as 94%. This has been substantially attributed to the inadequate capacity of tendon to heal once damaged, particularly to bone at the enthesis. A number of strategies have been developed to...
