“…Bioabsorbable materials for fixation of shoulder lesions were developed to avoid the complications caused by metallic implants: migration of the implant into the joint or secondary arthrosis 1 , 2 . Nevertheless, there are suspicions that bioabsorbable materials might have the potential to cause synovitis.…”

They were developed to enable temporary fixation of the tissue, thereby avoiding the complications of metallic implants 1 , 2 , since the bioabsorbable material disintegrates after a period of time. The first generation of implants were made of polyglycolic acid (PGA).…”
