Abstract
In patient with lower limb disability, rotator cuff disorders are prevalent, with partial thickness tears occurring at nearly twice the rate of full thickness tears. For those with acromion spurs unresponsive to conservative treatment, rotator cuff repair via the take-down method poses a retear risk and requires extensive rehabilitation. Conversely, surgery utilizing bio-inductive collagen implants shows a lower retear risk and enables faster recovery, making it an appealing option for wheelchair athletes. Thus, the authors aim to present favorable outcomes from isolated bio-inductive collagen implant repair in a 45-year-old female wheelchair tennis player with a bursal side partial thickness tear, alongside a literature review.
