In vitro Biomechanical Study of Pulvertaft Tendon Weaving Technique

Background/Purposes: The outcome of tendon repair depends on the strength, which allows early active mobilization to achieve better function without rupture. The aims of this study are to assess quantitatively the biomechanical properties and relationship between the number of tendon weaving and sut...
