## Abstract The adult healing response of the rotator cuff tendonβtoβbone insertion site differs from the ordered process of insertion site development. Healing is characterized by disorganized scar and a lack of fibrocartilage formation, in contrast to the well organized fibrocartilaginous transit
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the relationship between the degree of degeneration at the supraspinatus insertion, the tensile strength, and the site of failure of this tendon. Thirty-three fresh cadaveric shoulders (average age: 62 years; range: 39-83 years) were examined. A ten
## Abstract Rotator cuff repair is known to have a high failure rate. Little is known about the natural healing process of the rotator cuff repair site, hence little can be done to improve the tendon's ability to heal. The purpose of this study was to investigate the collagen formation at the early
