Effects of a lateral row anchor position on the suture holding strength of a double-row knotless fixation in rotator cuff repair.
CONCLUSION: A horizontal lateral row anchor positioned closer to the medial anchor resulted in less cyclic elongation when compared to a more vertically positioned lateral row anchor. The vertical or oblique positioning of the lateral row anchor did not result in any increase in the failure load value; however, the vertical placement prevented a suture pull through the lateral row anchor.
