Influence of the Tendon Grasping Technique on Tensile Strength in 6-strand Sutures

Influence of the Tendon Grasping Technique on Tensile Strength in 6-strand Sutures

Purpose: The locking configuration of the core suture in tendon repair considerably impacts the tendon’s tensile strength. This study assessed the effects of two grasping techniques for 6-strand core sutures on gap formation resistance using linear load-to-failure testing under simulated tendon load...
