From: Effect of Poloxamer 407 as a carrier vehicle on rotator cuff healing in a rat model
Illustration of rotator cuff repair in a rat model. (A) Detachment of the supraspinatus tendon followed by repair without any carrier vehicle (repair only). (B) Collagen sponge was applied at the interface of the detached tendon and footprint in the bone before the tendon was repaired (repair + CS). (C) Poloxamer 407 gel was injected between the detached tendon and footprint in the bone before the tendon was repaired (repair + P407).
