Cyclic Testing of Flexible All-Inside Meniscus Suture Anchors
Arthroscopic inside-out and outside-in meniscus repair techniques are technically demanding. The need for additional incisions with the risk of iatrogenic neurovascular damage can lead to prolonged intraoperative and tourniquet time and can thereby increase morbidity and anesthesia costs. To overcome these disadvantages, all-inside repair devices were developed. Simple insertion of these rigid ...
متن کاملMechanical testing of absorbable suture anchors.
PURPOSE Absorbable suture anchors offer great advantages but are made of mechanically weak material. The weakest link in the fixation of soft tissue to bone may therefore be the anchor itself. In this study, several commercially available anchors were mechanically tested in vitro. TYPE OF STUDY Biomechanical bench study. METHODS Twelve absorbable suture anchor models were implanted into an ...
متن کاملBiomechanical comparison of traditional anchors to all-suture anchors in a double-row rotator cuff repair cadaver model.
BACKGROUND To further reduce the invasiveness of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery the all-suture anchor has been developed. The all-suture anchor requires less bone removal and reduces the potential of loose body complications. The all-suture anchor must also have adequate biomechanical strength for the repair to heal. The hypothesis is there is no significant difference in the biomecha...
متن کاملA biomechanical analysis of anterior Bankart repair using suture anchors.
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic repair of anterior Bankart lesions is typically done with single-loaded suture anchors tied with simple stitch configuration. HYPOTHESIS The knotless suture anchor will have similar biomechanical properties compared with two types of conventional suture anchors. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Fresh-frozen shoulders were dissected and an anteroinf...
متن کاملInitial fixation strength of flexible all-inside meniscus suture anchors in comparison to conventional suture technique and rigid anchors: biomechanical evaluation of new meniscus refixation systems.
BACKGROUND The newest generation of meniscus repair devices is designed to combine the benefits of the all-inside technique with the biomechanical properties of sutures. HYPOTHESIS New flexible all-inside suture anchors have better fixation strength than rigid anchors, but there is no difference when compared to conventional horizontal and vertical mattress sutures. STUDY DESIGN Controlled ...
