Bioinductive collagen implants (BCIs) show a low incidence of postoperative stiffness in rotator cuff repair (RCR). Stiffness rates were higher for partial-thickness tears, indicating a need for further research.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomaterials Science
  • Regenerative Medicine

Background:

  • Bioinductive collagen implants (BCIs) are increasingly used for rotator cuff repair (RCR).
  • Concerns exist regarding BCIs potentially causing postoperative stiffness.
  • This study evaluates the incidence of stiffness following BCI use in RCR.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the incidence of postoperative stiffness after rotator cuff repair using bioinductive collagen implants.
  • To analyze factors associated with stiffness in RCR patients treated with BCIs.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 432 RCR cases using BCIs (September 2014 - December 2023).
  • Primary outcome: postoperative range of motion, defining significant stiffness.
  • Secondary outcome: revision surgery for stiffness.

Main Results:

  • A low incidence of significant postoperative stiffness (2.8%, 12 cases) was observed.
  • Stiffness rates were 1.4% for full-thickness tears and 5.7% for partial-thickness tears (P = 0.0149).
  • Most stiff cases required revision surgery and often had pre-existing risk factors.

Conclusions:

  • Bioinductive collagen implants are associated with a low incidence of significant postoperative stiffness in RCR.
  • Partial-thickness tears showed a higher rate of stiffness compared to full-thickness tears.
  • Further research with improved definitions and prospective studies is needed to fully understand RCR stiffness with BCIs.
