Abstract

Tendon pathologies are a frequent cause of shoulder pain and can lead to significant decline in the quality of life. Conservative treatment is suitable for most tendon pathologies. In addition to classical conservative treatment options, such as physiotherapy, oral analgesia and infiltrations, there are a number of additive treatment options to promote structural tendon healing and clinical outcome. Furthermore, there are approaches to improve the results of the surgical treatment of tendon injuries by biological augmentation. The objective of this article is to give an overview of biological and regenerative therapeutic options in the treatment of tendon injuries of the shoulder. Therefore, the anatomical and molecular biological principles of the tendon structure and their importance for tendon healing are explained in order to highlight the various therapeutic options for daily practice. Biological augmentation procedures and regenerative medicine represent a promising therapeutic option for tendon injuries of the shoulder, however, the benefits are so far supported by little or no evidence at all.
