A Biomechanical Evaluation of a Novel Surgical Reconstruction Technique of the Ulnar Collateral Ligament of the Elbow Joint

The objective of this thesis is to biomechanically evaluate a novel Double bundle technique for UCL reconstruction designed to accelerate recovery time and minimize gap formation. Excluding UCL surgery, ligament reconstruction procedures typically require an average of 6 months of recovery time. UCL...
