An In Vivo Comparison: Novel Mesh Suture Versus Traditional Suture- Based Repair in a Rabbit Tendon Model

Despite advancements in surgical techniques, suture pull-though and rupture continue to limit the early range of motion and functional rehabilitation after flexor tendon repairs. The aim of this study was to evaluate a suturable mesh compared with a commonly used braided suture in an in vivo rabbit intrasynovial tendon model.
