摘要
The strength and gliding efficiency of an augmented Becker and Kessler tendon repair techniques were compared in fresh cadaver macaque monkey hands. Gliding efficiency was determined by comparing tendon work and load measurements made during tendon excursion to full fist with the same measurements made after tendon repair. Repair strength was then determined by tendon distraction to complete repair rupture. Data were gathered by computer controlled tensiometer and analyzed by factorial and repeated measures ANOVA. The augmented Becker repairs were significantly stronger than Kessler repairs. Repaired tendons required more load and work to bring the fingers into full fist; both repair types resulted in gliding efficiencies of 30% compared to intact controls. The augmented Becker repair is significantly stronger in situ than the modified Kessler and is recommended when early postoperative motion regimens are planned.
