Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients who are undergoing shoulder repair surgery will receive CelGro(R) which is implanted at the site of the tendinopathy or tear during surgery, by an Orthopaedic Surgeon, to provide an optimal environment for tissue repair.

This will be as part of the augmentation procedure instead of receiving normal surgical sutures to the damaged tendon. There is no cell collection or cultural procedures prior to surgery.

An Orthopaedic Surgon will place the collagen scaffold in place within the shoulder during surgery. The surgery itself will take approximately between 1 - 3 hours, this is a single occasion.
