The effect of locking loops on the strength of tendon repair.
, J Hand Surg Br, Vol: 16, Pages: 35-39, ISSN: 0266-7681A multiple X-raying method has been developed which allows examination of how the particular features of suturing techniques collapse or pull out of the tendon during tensile testing. This technique was used to examine the locking loop tendon sutures, such as the modified Kessler, Verdan and Ketchum techniques. Locking loops did not contribute towards the strength when small diameter sutures (5/0) of various materials were applied to the tendon, collapsing at 12 Newtons. Larger diameter sutures (4/0) slightly reduced the risk of failure of locking loops, but they still collapsed at 15 Newtons or less, so suture techniques which depend on locking loops will often lead to gap formation at low loads and hence poor results.

Primary nerve repair: strength of repair with different gauges of nylon suture material.
, J Hand Surg Br, Vol: 14, Pages: 301-302, ISSN: 0266-7681Cadaveric median nerves were divided and repaired with interrupted epineural sutures, as in normal clinical practice, using three different gauges of nylon monofilament material. Tensile testing of the nerve repairs showed that, of these three gauges, 9/0 (0.3 metric) sutures were preferable: gap formation at the repair site occurred at the highest force. Finer gauge (10/0) sutures snapped at a lower force, while thicker (8/0) sutures were less consistent and pulled out of the nerve tissue.

Flexor tendon repair: significant gain in strength from the Halsted peripheral suture technique.
, J Hand Surg Br, Vol: 14, Pages: 232-235, ISSN: 0266-7681A biomechanical study in vitro has evaluated a new modification of the core and peripheral suture technique for flexor tendon repair. Groups of repairs were conducted in cadaver tendons, using a core suture alone, a core suture with a simple running surface suture and a new modification involving a 'Halsted' horizontal mattress technique for the peripheral stitch. The Halsted modification increased the load at which a visible gap formed by 93%, the load at which a 2 mm gap formed by 77%, and the maximum strength by 89%. This increase was due to the technique; it did not depend on the suture material used. The bulk of the tendon repair was not significantly greater with the Halsted modification.
