Editorial Commentary: Size Matters: Biomechanical Analysis of All-Suture Suture-Anchor Fixation Compared to Conventional Suture Anchors and Interference Screws for Biceps Tenodesis.
Editorial Article
Overview
abstract
Anchors and screws demonstrate similar fixation properties for shoulder biceps tenodesis allowing healing, but anchors requiring smaller drill holes reduce the risk of postoperative fractures under torsional stress. Clinicians could create the smallest possible holes in the humerus, especially in throwing athletes who create large torsional stresses.
