Enhancement of rotator cuff tendon–bone healing using bone marrow–stimulating technique along with hyaluronic acid

ConclusionHA may play a crucial role in the acceleration of tendon-to-bone healing which might be through inhibiting inflammation. Rotator cuff repair using MF along with HA led to better tendon–bone healing and a subsequent increase of biomechanical strength at the repair site.The translational potential of this articleHA injection is very common for patients with rotator cuff disease because of its antiinflammatory action and adhesion prevention preoperatively. The HA injection during surgery provides an antiinflammatory effect during tendon–bone healing process and leads to better tendon–bone healing postoperatively.
