Frog glue enhances rotator cuff repair in a laboratory cadaveric model.

Summary: Rotator cuff tendons are typically reattached to the proximal humerus using transosseous sutures or suture anchors. Their primary mode of failure is at the tendon-bone interface. We investigated the addition of a novel adhesive secreted from a species of Australian frog (Notaden bennetti) to different methods of rotator cuff repair.
