Comparison of the biomechanics and histology of two soft-tissue fixators composed of bioabsorbable copolymers

The purpose of this study was to assess the dynamic in vitro and in vivo characteristics of two different bioabsorbable copolymer soft‐tissue fixation devices and to determine their efficacy in reattaching soft tissue to bone. Suretac® fixators (Smith & Nephew/Acufex MicroSurgical Inc., Northwoo...
