Transosseous braided-tape and double-row fixations are better than tension band for avulsion-type greater tuberosity fractures
Abstract
Introduction The optimal treatment for avulsion-type greater tuberosity fractures is yet to be determined. Three fixation methods are tested: tension band with #2 wire suture (TB), double-row suture bridge with anchors (DR), and simple transosseous fixation with braided tape (BT). Materials and methods Twenty-four porcine proximal humeri were randomised into three groups: TB, DR and BT. A standardised greater tuberosity (GT) osteotomy was...
