Comparative study of knot performance and ease of manipulation of monofilament and braided sutures for arthroscopic applications
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether alternative monofilament sutures, such as poly (glycolidetrimethylenecarbonate-co-dioxanone) (Biosyn(R)) and polypropylene (Prolene(R)) or braided poly (ethylene terephthalate), i.e. polyester (Surgidac (R)), provide superior knot performan...
