Summary

Patients will be randomized to receive HEALICOIL™ REGENESORB (the study anchor) or TWINFIX Ultra HA, a similar comparative product, for use in the repair of their shoulder injury. They will be asked to complete questionnaires throughout the study and will receive an MRI, CT and multiple ultrasound images. The MRIs and radiographs will be used to assess bony ingrowth at the repair site, and the ultrasound to assess repair success rate of the rotator cuff. The clinical and radiological outcomes will be compared between the study and control groups. It is hypothesized that there will be 85% high quality ossification at anchor site for HEALICOIL REGENESORB and 49.9% high quality ossification for TWINFIX Ultra HA at 24 months.
