2023 AOSSM Annual Meeting Recordings with CME-Case presentation - Rotator Cuff Repair with Biologic Augmentation (BMAC)

Case presentation - Rotator Cuff Repair with Biologic Augmentation (BMAC)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses the use of biologic augmentation in rotator cuff repairs. They mention using bone marrow aspirate concentrate and injecting it at the tendon bone interface along with thrombin and calcium chloride to clot the material. The speaker also mentions using a porous collagen scaffold material to support tissue formation. They compare the cell yield from aspirating from the iliac crest versus the parostate humerus and find that the iliac crest provides a better yield. The speaker also briefly discusses post-operative care and potential options for augmenting the biology post-op. They mention several clinical trials, including one using stromal vascular fraction cells and another using gene-modified human umbilical vein cells. The speaker concludes by mentioning completed safety studies and ongoing trials. (Credit: The speaker in the video is Dr. Scott Rodeo, a surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.)
