Despite the concerns of detaching the intact tendon, the completion repair technique exhibited increased healing characteristics compared with the in situ technique. The reason for this finding might be the refreshing effect of debridement at the chronic degenerated tendon that could improve the healing response.
PŮVODNÍ PRÁCEfor total UCL ruptures (20). Surgery is mostly recommended for avulsion injuries (Stener lesion) (15).Various fixation techniques and materials such as suture anchor, Kirschner wires, and direct repair have been described for primary surgical repair of UCL (7-16-19, 20). All these techniques have their own technical challenges and all are open to some form of complications. Fixation of osseous avulsion fractures with K wires is complicated by pin track infections and osteomyelitis, and repair with anchors with a classical metal and biomaterial content may result in complications including foreign body reactions, migration, and chondrolysis (2-9, 10).The new generation all-soft anchors are suture based anchors entirely composed of polyethylene, which minimize the amount of foreign material in bone by leaving only suture material behind, and are therefore considered least prone to complications. By conducting this study we aimed to assess clinical functional outcomes and
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
