Stainless steel wire versus FiberWire suture cerclage fixation to stabilize the humerus in total shoulder arthroplasty.
HYPOTHESIS No. 5 FiberWire (Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) cerclage (FWC) and 1.25-mm stainless steel wire cerclage (SSWC) are biomechanically similar in resistance to prosthetic subsidence in shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS In this laboratory bench study, 3 different surgical knot configurations (4-throw knot, cow hitch, and simple hitch) using a No. 5 FWC were evaluated and compared with a 1.25-m...
متن کاملA biomechanical analysis of a tensioned suture device in the fixation of the ligamentous Lisfranc injury.
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that using a cadaveric Lisfranc ligamentous injury model, abduction stress would provoke greater post-injury motion than axial weightbearing between the medial cuneiform (MC1) and the base of the second metatarsal (MT2). Second, we hypothesized that both a tensioned suture-button device and a rigid screw fixation method could maintain a reduction and similarly restrai...
متن کاملBiomechanical evaluation of tibial eminence fractures using suture fixation.
This study evaluates the initial fixation strength of tibial eminence fracture repair using 1, 2, 3, and 4 sutures to determine the optimal number of sutures required to adequately secure the avulsed fragment to the tibia. Sixteen skeletally immature porcine knees were stripped of all soft tissues, isolating the femur-anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-tibia complex. Type III tibial eminence frac...
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...
متن کاملSingle 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...
