Does using high-tensile strength tape improve the fixation strength in tendon graft fixation with needleless suture wrapping techniques compared to a suture?

Purpose: To compare the biomechanical properties of a high-tensile strength suture and high-tensile strength tape in tendon graft fixation using two needleless suture wrapping techniques, the modified Prusik knot and modified rolling hitch. Methods: Two needleless suture wrapping techniques, the mod...
