Enhanced Zone II Flexor Tendon Repair through a New Half Hitch Loop Suture Configuration
This study evaluated the impact of a new half hitch loop suture configuration on flexor tendon repair mechanics. Cadaver canine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were repaired with 4- or 8-strands, 4-0 or 3-0 suture, with and without half hitch loops. An additional group underwent repair with half hitch loops but without the terminal knot. Half hitch loops improved the strength of 8-strand rep...
متن کاملa comparative study of two suture configurations in zone ii flexor tendon repair in adults
although the increase in the number of core sutures during flexor tendon repair increases the tensile strength of the repair, both increased handling at the time of repair and increased bulk at the repair site have been hypothesized as affecting clinical outcomes by increasing gliding resistance. the purpose of our study was to assess whether increasing the number of core sutures from two stran...
