Higher failure rate of suture anchors in partial distal biceps tendon ruptures in comparison with Endobutton fixation

Higher failure rate of suture anchors in partial distal biceps tendon ruptures in comparison with Endobutton fixation

Background: Little is known about the preferred repair technique of partial tears of the distal biceps tendon. In this study, suture anchors were compared with the Endobutton technique for repair of partial distal biceps tendon ruptures, especially regarding failure rate. Methods: A total of 59 pati...
