To evaluate the synergistic roles of orthobiologics and robotic technologies in overcoming biological and mechanical barriers to tendon-to-bone healing in chronic rotator cuff tears.
Reviewed biological augmentation strategies, including platelet-rich plasma, bone marrow aspirate concentrate, and mesenchymal stem cell therapies.
Evaluated robotic systems, navigation-assisted platforms, 3D imaging, and artificial intelligence applications for footprint restoration and tendon tension control.
Orthobiologics target inflammation and cellular regeneration, though clinical efficacy remains variable due to preparation differences and baseline tissue quality.
Robotic and navigation platforms improve biomechanical environments by enhancing anchor placement precision, restoring anatomical footprints, and optimizing tendon tension.
