Can stem cells improve shoulder surgery?
Source: Medical Xpress
The reason that rotator cuff surgery fails so often has to do with a structure called the enthesis, a strong but paper-thin layer of tissue that connects tendon to bone. Once a torn tendon is grasped with sutures and anchored to the bone, the enthesis doesn't regenerate itself.

Autologous chondrocyte implantation has been used to some extent in clinics; however it has not generated efficient, reliable results, and there is no evidence of long-term success. The usage of stem cells is more promising, particularly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).
