Exercise Initiation After Surgical Reconstruction for Rat Rotator Cuff Injury Affects Tendon Healing and Muscle Preservation. [PDF]
Wistar rats underwent supraspinatus tendon tear and reconstruction. Then, rats were divided into Cage activity, Immobilization, Immobilization + Early exercise, and Immobilization + Delayed exercise groups. After 3 and 6 weeks of surgery, histological and biomechanical analyses were performed.

Rotator cuff degeneration and healing after rotator cuff repair [PDF]
Rotator cuff tear is a common shoulder injury that compromises both function and quality of life. Despite the prevalence of the injury and advancements in repair techniques, a significant percentage of these repairs fail.

Exposure of a tendon extracellular matrix to synovial fluid triggers endogenous and engrafted cell death: A mechanism for failed healing of intrathecal tendon injuries [PDF]
Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of normal synovial fluid (SF) on exposed endogenous tendon-derived cells (TDC) and engrafted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within the tendon extracellular matrix. Methods: Explants from equine

The vasculature and its role in the damaged and healing tendon [PDF]
Tendon pathology has many manifestations, from spontaneous rupture to chronic tendinitis or tendinosis; the etiology and pathology of each are very different, and poorly understood. Tendon is a comparatively poorly vascularised tissue that relies heavily

I.S.Mu.L.T - Rotator cuff tears guidelines [PDF]
Despite the high level achieved in the field of shoulder surgery, a global consensus on rotator cuff tears management is lacking. This work is divided into two main sessions: in the first, we set questions about hot topics involved in the rotator cuff ...

Regenerative Medicine in Rotator Cuff Injuries [PDF]
Rotator cuff injuries are a common source of shoulder pathology and result in an important decrease in quality of patient life. Given the frequency of these injuries, as well as the relatively poor result of surgical intervention, it is not surprising that new and innovative strategies like tissue engineering have become more appealing.
