Variation in Humeral Head Bone Marrow Characteristics With Rotator Cuff Repair Healing
Sponsor: The Cleveland Clinic
Summary
This study investigates correlations between humeral head bone marrow characteristics and tendon healing of rotator cuff repairs. The anticipated results would motivate future research aimed to investigate local enrichment or transplantation of connective tissue progenitor cells to augment rotator cuff repair and the pursuit of novel methods of bone marrow screening to preoperatively identify patients with bone marrow characteristics related to rotator cuff repair success or failure.
