Comparable clinical outcome with greater thickness and lesser re-tear rate following allogenous dermal scaffold augmentation for large to massive rotator cuff tears: a retrospective case-controlled study
This study suggests that allogenous dermal scaffold graft augmentation, in addition to partial repair, enhances tendon thickness and acromiohumeral distance. Furthermore, it results in lower retear rates compared to partial repair alone.
