Uyeki CL, Ford BT, Shuman ME, Hawthorne BC, Wellington IJ, Mazzocca AD. Rotator cuff tears are common in an aging population. Thus far, primary repairs have shown high re-tear rates suggesting the need for improved healing modalities. Current augmentations of rotator cuff repairs include synthetic and biological scaffolds, surgical bone marrow venting, and infusing the repair with a variety of stem cells and growth factors aimed at restoring the native cellular structure and function of the repaired tissue. This current concepts review discusses the anatomy, physical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of rotator cuff tears; biological adjuvants for rotator cuff repairs; and the current literature on outcomes after biologically augmented rotator cuff repairs.
