Influence of Temperature on the Biomechanical Stability of Titanium, PEEK, Poly-L-Lactic Acid, and β-Tricalcium Phosphate Poly-L-Lactic Acid Suture Anchors Tested on Human Humeri In Vitro in a Wet Environment

Titanium, PEEK, PLLA, and β-tricalcium phosphate PLLA suture anchors for rotator cuff repair can be expected-on the basis of this investigation comparing laboratory temperature with body temperature and a wet environment-to perform in vivo similar to in vitro testing.
