Rotator Cuff Treatment
Regeneten Bioinductive Implant for Rotator Cuff Disease
The Regeneten Bioinductive Implant is a newer option for rotator cuff disease. It is designed to help heal rotator cuff tears by supporting the body's natural healing response, facilitating new tissue growth and potentially disrupting disease progression.
- Arthroscopic
- Collagen-based
- Absorbs in about six months
How It Works
What Is the Regeneten Implant?
Regeneten is a collagen-based implant delivered arthroscopically through a small incision over the rotator cuff tendon injury. It is secured with small anchors, and both the implant and anchors are designed to absorb in about six months.
Your surgeon will explain the full plan, expected recovery and alternatives during your consultation.
