| Core Tip |
Our ex-vivo ovine model demonstrates that the use of a polypropylene mesh is mechanically suitable as an interposition graft for large irreparable rotator cuff tears. Its use results in a repair that is at least as robust as an intact rotator cuff tendon. When paired with a continuous suturing technique, its resultant superior mechanical properties may potentially reduce re-tear rates after repairing large or massive rotator cuff tears. |
