Optimum suture material for locking technique in tendon repair: Effects of suture friction in mobilization

Abstract Background The 2-strand side-locking loop technique allows secure locking formation easily, yielding maximum tensile force. However, not all suture materials are suitable for this technique. Methods The bovine gastrocnemius tendons were transected and repaired end-to-end by the side-locking...
