Popis: | OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of a novel barbed suture pattern (NBSP) compared to a three-loop-pulley (3LP) with and without epitendinous suture (ES) augmentation on the biomechanical strength and gap formation of repaired canine tendons. STUDY DESIGN Ex vivo, cadaveric, randomized, experimental study. SAMPLE POPULATION Forty, adult superficial digital flexor tendons (SDFT). METHODS SDFT were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n = 10/group). Sharp tenotomy was performed and repaired with 3LP, NBSP, 3LP + ES, and NBSP + ES. Constructs were tested to failure while evaluating yield, peak, and failure loads, loads at 1 and 3 mm gap formation, and failure mode. RESULTS Constructs augmented with ES sustained 80% greater yield (p |
