  2. Acellular dermis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acellular_dermis

    Acellular dermis is a type of biomaterial derived from processing human or animal tissues to remove cells and retain portions of the extracellular matrix (ECM). These materials are typically cell-free, distinguishing them from classical allografts and xenografts, can be integrated or incorporated into the body, and have been FDA approved for human use for more than 10 years in a wide range of ...

  3. Rotator cuff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff

    The rotator cuff compresses the glenohumeral joint during abduction of the arm, an action known as concavity compression, in order to allow the large deltoid muscle to further elevate the arm. In other words, without the rotator cuff, the humeral head would ride up partially out of the glenoid fossa, lessening the efficiency of the deltoid muscle.

  4. Rotator cuff tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff_tear

    Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a process of senescence. The pathophysiology is mucoid degeneration. [4] Most people develop rotator cuff tendinopathy within their lifetime. [5] As part of rotator cuff tendinopathy, the tendon can thin and develop a defect. This defect is often referred to as a rotator cuff tear.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder

    The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that surround the shoulder joint and contribute to the shoulder's stability. The muscles of the rotator cuff are supraspinatus, subscapularis, infraspinatus, and teres minor. The cuff adheres to the glenohumeral capsule and attaches to the humeral head.

  6. Dermal equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermal_equivalent

    The Integra Dermal Regeneration Template’s bilayer structure is composed of bovine tendon collagen and chondroitin-6-sulfate for the dermal layer, and polysiloxane for the epidermal layer. [12] The polysiloxane epidermal layer is semipermeable, allowing for the controlled water vapor loss, flexible anti-bacterial support of the wound, and ...

  7. Allotransplantation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotransplantation

    The transplant is called an allograft, allogeneic transplant, or homograft. Most human tissue and organ transplants are allografts. It is contrasted with autotransplantation (from one part of the body to another in the same person), syngenic transplantation of isografts (grafts transplanted between two genetically identical individuals) and ...

  8. Skin grafting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_grafting

    Skin grafting, a type of graft surgery, involves the transplantation of skin without a defined circulation. The transplanted tissue is called a skin graft. [1] Surgeons may use skin grafting to treat: extensive wounding or trauma; burns; areas of extensive skin loss due to infection such as necrotizing fasciitis or purpura fulminans [2]

  9. Adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive_capsulitis_of_the...

    The main limiting factor in external rotation is due to the thickening of the coracohumeral ligament, which forms the roof of the rotator cuff and is a primary symptom of adhesive capsulitis. In addition, the coracohumeral ligament attributes to the limitation of internal rotation considering its connection to the supraspinatus and subscapular ...
