Embodiments of this application relate to the use of porous coating implants to repair soft tissue injuries. Implant frames are coated with a porous coating, such as a titanium porous coating, for example, on both the bone-facing and the soft tissue-facing sides of the implant. The implant may then be sandwiched between the bone and soft tissue so that the bone grows into one side, and the soft tissue grows into the other side.
