Single versus double row suture anchor fixation for greater tuberosity fractures – a biomechanical study
BACKGROUND Fractures of the humeral greater tuberosity (GT) are a frequent injury progressively treated with arthroscopic suture anchor repair. Yet, no biomechanical study has been performed comparing fixation strength of arthroscopic single- (SR) vs. double row (DR) fixation. METHODS Standardized fractures of the greater tuberosity were created in 12 fresh frozen proximal humeri. After rando...
متن کاملRepair of an Isolated Coracoid Fracture With Suture Anchor Fixation
Coracoid fractures are rare injuries, which may occur in isolation or in association with other shoulder pathology. The mechanism of trauma consists of a strong contraction of the conjoint tendon as a result of direct trauma. The diagnosis is usually difficult and many times overlooked, thereby requiring a high level of suspicion. In many cases, standard trauma series shoulder radiographs are u...
متن کاملA novel, resorbable suture anchor: pullout strength from the human cadaver greater tuberosity.
The pullout strength of a collagen bone anchor that creates interference fixation as the result of radial swelling on hydration was compared with a Mitek rotator cuff anchor after insertion into the greater tuberosity of human cadaver humeri. Bones were fully hydrated at 37 degrees C. Stiffness, peak load, and the mode of failure were recorded. Real and apparent bone densities were measured. Pe...
متن کاملFixation of the greater tuberosity in proximal humeral fractures: FiberWire® or wire cerclage?
Proximal humeral fractures remain a surgical challenge, and scientific discussions are commonly focused on their ideal treatment. One possible treatment involves the use of an angle stable plate osteosynthesis. However, which material can most feasibly be used to attach the greater tuberosity to the implant remains unknown. In two prospective, non-randomized trials, we compared the results of a...
متن کاملThe Effect of Varying Throws in Three Suture Techniques for Tendon Graft Fixation- A Biomechanical Study
Purpose: Biomechanically evaluate the optimal number of throws for achieving graft-holding capacity of currently used suture techniques. Methods: Porcine flexor profundus tendons randomly divided into 9 groups of 11 specimens were used. Three stitch configurations, namely the Krachow stitch, locking SpeedWhip (LSW) stitch and modified finger trap (MFT) suture, were assessed with 3, 5 and 7 thro...
