Editorial Commentary: Success of Rotator Cuff Healing-Do We Need to Improve on the Strength Anymore?
1University of California, San Francisco.
Abstract:
We have had significant progress in improving the biomechanical strength of arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs over the past 3 decades. The field has advanced from simple suture repairs to double-row, transosseous, massive cuff and rip-stop constructs. I do think our focus next should be on improving the biology of tendon healing to improve our clinical outcomes.
