Traction endurance biomechanical study of metallic suture anchors at different insertion angles

Traction endurance biomechanical study of metallic suture anchors at different insertion angles

The suture anchors' insertion angle and its traction resistance are the main subjects of this study. Twenty trials were realized using threaded suture anchors in four diferents angulations (30º /45º /60º /90º) in human bone (distal femur) and another twenty trials in artificial bone (SawboneTM)...
