Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Inframammary fold reconstruction has scarcely been evaluated in literature. No biomechanical analyses have been performed comparing different reconstructive methods. This evaluation compares the gold standard suture reconstruction to an intra-rib anchor system (Micro BioComposite SutureTak®, Arthrex). Methods: 3 analysis groups were compared including 8 Sawbone® blocks, 22 embalmed cadaver and 27 regular cadaver specimens (N = 57). Transient mechanical analysis was performed at 5N/s using an Instron 5565® test frame. Results: Ultimate load favored the anchor system (compared to the gold standard su…
