Combined arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with mesenchymal stem cell augmentation shows similar functional outcomes but a higher structural integrity rate compared with isolated repair: a meta-analysis of comparative studies

Background: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) has guaranteed satisfactory outcomes but remains associated with a significant rate of tendon-bone healing failure. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been tested as a promising cell-based therapy for rotator cuff tear (RCT). MSC augmentation has be...
