Rotator Cuff Tear Therapy in Athens
The shoulder is considered the most mobile joint in the human body and is prone to a number of injuries, including a rotator cuff tear.
A rotator cuff tear is quite common in the athletic community and involves a partial or complete tear of one or more of the four muscle-tendon units that may lead to persistent pain and functional impairment.
Regenerative Medicine for Rotator Cuff Tears and Shoulder Pain
Despite that the surgical procedures being satisfactory, the repair of the rotator cuff remains problematic, through failure of healing, adhesion formation, and fatty infiltration.
Stem cells have multiple differentiation potential, which promote tendon remodeling and fibrocartilage formation and increase biomechanical strength.
Additionally, stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles can increase collagen synthesis and inhibit inflammation and adhesion formation by carrying regulatory proteins.
Therefore, stem cell-based therapy is a promising therapeutic strategy that has great potential for rotator cuff healing.
Dr. Spagakos well-known for his expertise in innovative treatments for joint injuries, suggests stem cells for rotator cuff treatment, as an alternative to undergoing surgery and a lengthy rehabilitation program.
