Effect of a poloxamer-based thermosensitive gel on rotator cuff repair in a rabbit model: a controlled laboratory study.

Application of an anti-adhesive agent in this rotator cuff model confirmed the agent's effectiveness at reducing fibrosis in the subacromial space. The healing of the tendon showed interesting results, as the experimental group had poorer biomechanical strength at 4 weeks but superior strength at 8 weeks.
