Bioabsorbable tricalcium phosphate bone cement strengthens fixation of suture anchors.
Clin Orthop Relat Res. 2010; (12): 3406-12
Failure of suture anchor fixation in rotator cuff repair can occur at different interfaces. Prior studies show fixation at the bone-anchor interface can be augmented using polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement, and screw fixation into bone can be strengthened using bioabsorbable tricalcium phosphate cement.
