Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Several types of suture anchors, which differ in their working principles, are available for fixation of ligamentous structures in knee surgery. How the choice of a suture anchor type influences the biomechanical stability of ligament fixation is largely unknown.
PURPOSE: To compare the biomechanical properties of different suture anchor designs regarding primary stability for tendon fixation and repair in medial collateral ligament (MCL) surgery.
STUDY DESIGN: Controlled laboratory study.
METHODS: The primary stability of MCL fixation was assessed in a porcine model utilizing 1 of 3 suture anchor types: a 5.5-mm titanium suture anchor (TSA), a 2.8-mm all-suture anchor (ASA), or a 5.5-mm polyether ether ketone knotless suture anchor (KLSA). Primary stability was assessed using a uniaxial material testing machine. Cyclic loading at 50 N and 100 N was applied for 500 cycles each, followed by a load-to-failure test.
RESULTS: After 500 cycles at 50 N, the KLSA (2.4 ± 0.3 mm) showed significantly (P < .05) reduced elongation in comparison to the TSA (4.0 ± 0.9 mm) and ASA (3.6 ± 0.7 mm), and after 500 cycles at 100 N, the KLSA (6.5 ± 1.4 mm) again showed significantly (P < .05) reduced elongation in comparison to the TSA (11.0 ± 2.2 mm) and ASA (12.0 ± 3.6 mm). However, the KLSA (213 ± 27 N) showed a significantly (P < .05) inferior ultimate failure load in comparison to the TSA (300 ± 20 N) and ASA (348 ± 23 N). In comparison to the TSA (113.0 ± 11.0 N/mm) and ASA (113.6 ± 14.4 N/mm), the KLSA (150.7 ± 11.6 N/mm) displayed the highest stiffness (P < .05). No significant differences were observed regarding yield load.
CONCLUSION: KLSAs displayed significantly reduced elongation, at the cost of a reduced ultimate failure load, in comparison to TSAs and ASAs.
CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Surgeons should be aware that differences exist between different suture anchor types regarding their biomechanical stability. KLSAs may be favorable for fixation of peripheral ligaments in knee surgery.
