Biomechanical Comparison of Krackow Open Repair and Percutaneous Achilles Repair System for Achilles Tendon Rupture: A Cadaveric and Finite Element Model Study

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: Achilles tendon ruptures are one of the most common tendon injuries. Numerous surgical procedures have been developed to repair these injuries, but there is no consensus as to which technique is superior. This combined cadaveric and finite element model study was performed to compare directly initial biomechanical integrity between two operative techniques and use these resulting data to validate a finite element model.
