ABSTRACT: Purpose
To compare the cellular viability and differentiation potential of subacromial bursa-derived cells (SBDCs) located over the rotator cuff muscle and tendon of patients undergoing primary versus revision arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR).Methods
Subacromial bursa was harvested from 18 primary (57.1 ± 4.6 years) and 12 revision ARCRs (57.3 ± 6.7 years). Bursa was collected from 2 sites (over rotator cuff tendon and muscle), digested with collagenase, and grown in culture. The number of nucleated cells, colony-forming units (CFUs), differentiation potential, and mesenchymal stem cell surface markers were compared in primary and revision cases.Results
There was no difference in the number of nucleated cells between primary and revision ARCR harvested from t
