[RESEARCH PROGRESS OF STRATEGIES TO AUGMENT TENDON-TO-BONE HEALING]
Objective:
To summarize the application status and progress of the strategies to augment tendon-to-bone healing.
Methods:
The present researches focused on augmentation of tendon-to-bone healing were extensively reviewed.
Results:
The present strategies to augment healing of tendon-to-bone by enhancing the location environment, and increasing the cell numbers and relative growth factor. The mainly strategies include using calcium phosphate materials, biocompatible scaffolds and glue, growth factors, cell matrix, platelet-rich plasma, and periosteum. Although periosteum have been used in clinical and got some possitive effects, the others still not be used in clinical and needs further studies.
Conclusion:
There are many strategies to enhance the ability of tendon-to-bone healing, which got some positive results, but results of studies were varied. Thus, further fundamental research and clinical studies are required to achieve the best effects.
