Abstract:
This study should analyze ten different suturing techniques for tendon graft preparation to allow the development of an entirely new suturing technique.Extensor tendon grafts of fattening bulls' forelegs were sutured with Ethibond Excel size three (six metric) fibers (Ethicon, Somerville, New York, USA). The tendon/suture complexes were biomechanically tested with a hydraulic testing machine applying traction according to a standardized protocol. The testing was observed to find out why the fail...     »
