The effect of suture retensioning and an additional posteroinferior anchor on Bankart repair biomechanics
Objectives and questions: To compare stiffness and elongation between Bankart repair with vs. without an additional posteroinferior (PI) anchor as well as with vs. without suture retensioning. Material and methods: Ten fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders (age: 61.3 ± 5.1 years, sex: 90.0% [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
