Bioabsorbable fixation is commonly used in soft tissue procedures performed in the shoulder. ArthroRivettrade mark tacks (referred to as rivets here), made from a copolymer of 82% poly-L-lactic acid and 18% polyglycolic acid, were developed for the Bankart procedure. Although a previous in vivo
To manage a difficulty in tying sutures over the infraspinatus fascia when using Caspari's transglenoid multiple suture technique, we developed a new anchoring system using a biodegradable poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) button and investigated its clinical efficacy in 28 patients who were followed-up for
This study evaluated the clinical effectiveness of a poly-l-lactic acid biodegradable suture anchor for arthroscopic Bankart reconstruction with a prospective multicenter study. Inclusion criteria were one or more episodes of traumatic dislocation or multiple posttraumatic subluxations as a
