An investigational cellular procedure being explored for adults with partial-thickness rotator cuff tendon conditions. Outcomes vary and are not guaranteed.
Submitting an intake does not establish a physician-patient relationship and does not constitute a medical recommendation. Procedures discussed are investigational and have not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Outcomes vary and are not predictable in advance.
The rotator cuff is a group of four tendons that stabilize the shoulder. Partial tendon tears and chronic tendinopathy are common and may not respond fully to conservative care. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) procedures are an investigational, non-FDA-approved option being studied for adults whose tendon condition has not resolved with physical therapy and who are working with their physician to consider next steps. Individual response to the procedure varies and is not predictable in advance.
The description below is informational. Any specific protocol is a clinical decision determined by the treating physician based on the patient's individual evaluation.
An image-guided injection of an MSC-derived product into the affected tendon region, generally paired with a structured rehabilitation plan determined by the treating physician.
The above is for general information only. Whether any procedure is appropriate is a clinical decision determined by the treating physician at consultation.
