Pull-Out Capability of a 3D Printed Threadless Suture Anchor with Rectangular Cross-Section: A Biomechanical Study
Suture anchor fixation is a common method for securing bone and soft tissue in the body, with proven applications in the hip, elbow, hand, knee and foot. A critical limiting factor of suture anchors is the pull-out strength, particularly in suboptimal bone. This study introduces a novel 3D printed t...
