Mechanical Augmentation With Absorbable Alginate Sheet Enhances Healing of the Rotator Cuff.

abstract：:Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) is an osteoinductive protein that plays a pivotal role in bone growth and regeneration. Studies conducted in many mammalian species and, most recently, human clinical studies, have provided definitive evidence of the ability of rhBMP-2 to induce bone. The findin...
