PushLock
The PushLock is a surgical implant device designed for use in orthopedic procedures. It is a bioabsorbable tack used to secure soft tissue to bone. The core function of the PushLock is to provide fixation and attachment of soft tissue structures during the healing process.

Arthroscopic TFCC Foveal Repair with Suture Anchor
Long arm cast immobilization with the forearm in the neutral rotation was maintained for 4 weeks. It was substituted by a long arm thermoplastic brace and wrist motion exercise was initiated. The patients were instructed to perform active assisted wrist mobilization and supination/pronation of forearm until the full motion was restored. The patients were permitted to do unrestricted daily activities after 2 months. Sports and heavy work activities were allowed 4 months postoperatively.
Arthroscopic Bankart Repair Technique
After a standardized diagnostic arthroscopy, the Bankart lesion was confirmed and evaluated. Using a Bankart-Chisel, the detached labrum, was mobilized and elevated from the anterior glenoid. An arthroscopic rasp or a shaver was used to create a bleeding bed along the glenoid edge. In all patients, a capsular plication was performed in addition. Using a suture passing instrument, a suture was advanced through the capsulolabral complex to be used as a shuttle suture. Drill holes were created on the glenoid at the 3 and 5:30 o’clock position for the right shoulder and the 6:30 and 9 o’clock for the left shoulder. Additional anchors were placed as necessary. According to the extent of the capsulolabral defect, one to four anchors were used: PushLock® (Arthrex), PANALOK® (DePuy) and Lupine® Loop (DePuy).

One set of plates was then incubated for 48 hours and the other for 72 hours. At each time point, the corresponding plate was removed to perform the light microscopy, trypan blue exclusion assay and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay.
Arthroscopic Capsular Repair Technique
diagnostic arthroscopy utilizing a standard posterior viewing portal and an
anterior working portal within the rotator interval. Concomitant pathology was
noted and addressed on a case-by-case basis to include debridement or repair of
the labrum and rotator cuff.
The location of the capsular tear was carefully assessed, taking note of
continuation to either the humeral or glenoid attachment. All tears were found
within the axillary pouch between the anteroinferior and posteroinferior
glenohumeral ligaments (

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
