Biomechanical evaluation of patch augmentation in a rotator cuff repair model using a porcine flexor digitorum profundus tendon: influence of knot tying and time-zero stability
ADM patch augmentation did not enhance time-zero mechanical strength in the tested conditions, though biomechanical advantages might emerge after integration to the tendon. In addition, patch augmentation without medial row knot tying showed the highest elongation and strain among groups, potentially reducing the stability of the repair. Level of evidence: V, controlled laboratory study.
