Suture Slippage Is Influenced by Suture Type and Bone Density in a Knotless Lateral Row Rotator Cuff Repair: A Biomechanical Analysis

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the influence of suture material and bone density on suture slippage in knotless lateral row anchors used in rotator cuff repair. Methods Analysis of 3 different suture materials loaded into a single lateral row anchor and tested in 2 different densities (osteoporotic and normal) of Sawbone models was conducted.
