Bunnell or cross-lock Bunnell suture for tendon repair? Defining the biomechanical role of suture pretension
BACKGROUND Suture pretension during tendon repair is supposed to increase the resistance to gap formation. However, its effects on the Bunnell suture technique are unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the biomechanical effects of suture pretension on the Bunnell and cross-lock Bunnell techniques for tendon repair. METHODS Eighty porcine hindlimb tendons were randomly assigned t...
متن کاملSuture techniques for tendon repair; a comparative review.
Over the past five decades we have seen numerous iterations of suture repair methods for tendon. The pursuit of the ultimate repair has led to many repair methods being described. This comprehensive compilation of the suture repair techniques will describe the factors that affect repair success, including repair strength, gapping resistance, glide and rehabilitation. Different approaches to rej...

متن کاملSuture-Only Repair Versus Suture Anchor-Augmented Repair for Achilles Tendon Ruptures With a Short Distal Stump: A Biomechanical Comparison.
BACKGROUND Chronic noninsertional Achilles tendinosis can result in an acute Achilles tendon rupture with a short distal stump. In such tendon ruptures, there is a limited amount of adequate tissue that can hold suture, thus presenting a challenge for surgeons who elect to treat the rupture operatively. HYPOTHESIS Adding suture anchors to the repair construct may result in biomechanically str...
متن کاملArthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair: A Biomechanical Comparison of Single Row and Suture-Bridge Tendon Repair Constructs
INTRODUCTION: Rotator cuff tears are a very common source of pain and loss of function of the shoulder. As arthroscopic instrumentation and repair techniques have evolved, many studies have demonstrated success in repairing rotator cuff tears using these arthroscopic techniques alone compared with an open repair method. Despite these successful clinical outcomes, both open and arthroscopic rota...
