Arthroscopic PRP gel augmentation at the tendon-bone interface accelerates functional recovery and structural healing in rotator cuff repair: a retrospective cohort study
PRP gel application was associated significantly greater improvement in functional recovery, greater reduction in pain, and better structural healing at 6 months postoperatively. This approach may support the objectives of enhanced recovery pathways by potentially facilitating a timely return to productivity and reducing socioeconomic burdens, supporting its role as a cost-effective adjunct to rotator cuff repair.
