Augmentation of Tendon Healing With Butyric Acid–Impregnated Sutures: Biomechanical Evaluation in a Rabbit Model

Background: Butyric acid (BA) has been shown to be angiogenic and to enhance transcriptional activity in tissue. These properties of BA have the potential to augment biological healing of a repaired tendon. Purpose: To evaluate this possibility both biomechanically and histologically in an animal te...
