Biologics for tendon repair: an overview
Biologics for tendon repair refer to biological substances, like growth factors, cytokines, collagen scaffolds or stem cells to enhance the healing process of damaged tendons. These substances are often derived from living organisms and can stimulate tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and promote better tendon healing. Biologics offer a promising alternative to traditional treatments by harnessing the body's natural healing mechanisms for more effective tendon repair or to augment mechanical techniques to strengthen the repair. Leading consultant orthopaedic surgeon Mr Andrew Chambler explains more about the procedure.
