Description
Summary:The healing process after tendon injury is often accompanied by the formation of peritendinous adhesion, contributing to limb dysfunction and exerting detrimental effects on the individuals, as well as the development of society and economy. With the continuous development of material science, as well as the augmented understanding of tendon healing and the mechanism of peritendinous adhesion formation, materials used for the fabrication of barrier membranes against peritendinous adhesion emerge endlessly. In this article, based on the analysis of the mechanism of adhesion formation, we first review the commonly used natural and synthetic materials, along with their corresponding fabrication strategies, in order to furnish valuable insights for the future optimization and development of antiperitendinous adhesion barrier membranes. This article also discusses the interaction between antiadhesion materials and cells for ameliorating peritendinous adhesion.
