Summary

The use of biologic acellular matrices for the surgical augmentation of rotator cuff lesions has greatly expanded inrecent years. The study team patented a method for removing cells from human dermis (Acellular Dermal Matrix), maintaining unaltered biological and structural integrity. Acellular Dermal Matrix has been succesfully used for rotator cuff surgical repair augmentation beside in a limited number of patients. The aim of the project is to demonstrate the therapeutical efficacy of this strategy in patients affected by rotator cuff massive tears. Acellular Dermal Matrix will be also combined with autologous orthobiologics.

Conditions

  • Rotator Cuff Tears

Interventions

OTHER

Acellular Dermal Matrix

Patinets will be treated with acellular dermal matrix with standard arthroscopic technique performed as per normal clinical practice. For the tendon repair the acellular dermal matrix patch will be placed over the repaired tendon with dedicated sutures and anchors.

OTHER

Acellular Dermal Matrix with autologous orthobiologics

Patinets will be treated with acellular dermal matrix enriched with autologous humeral bone marrow concentrate and subacromial bursa with standard arthroscopic technique. Humeral bone marrow concentrate will be harvested from the proximal humeral head inthe operating room and concentrated by an automatic close system.
