With the recent advancements in arthroscopic surgery, the use of suture anchor has increased in the surgical treatment of rotator cuff tears. In the present study, we developed a suture anchor system for ligament reconstruction that can be applied to patients with osteoporosis or with low bone density. The anchor screws are made of biocomposites containing poly-L-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) and beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) in a 70:30 ratio. The suture anchor system consisted of medial and lateral screw. The lateral screw was designed in a hemicylindrical structure to prevent bone damage. The performance of the developed anchor screw was found to be greater than 402.5 N in a pull-out test. |
