Tendon-to-bone healing plays a major role in the ultimate success of the various surgical procedures performed to repair injured tendons. Due to limited regeneration capacity of the tendon-bone interface, it is really challenging to achieve tendon-to-bone healing that is functionally and biologically similar to native anatomy.
The following research publication tried to establish a prospective therapeutic modality for tendon to bone healing. Present therapeutic modalities for tendon to bone healing include Osteoinductive growth factors Platelet-rich plasma Gene therapy Enveloping the grafts with periosteum Osteoconductive materials Cell-based therapies Biodegradable scaffolds, and Biomimetic patches Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound and extracorporeal shockwave treatment In recent years, several new strategies have been developed that enhance tendon-to-bone healing by increasing the…
