Merino type sheep (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>=10) were divided into two groups. Following a defect in the infraspinatus tendon, in group I (flexor\u2010tendon autografting) the free end of the flexor tendon was passed through the holes in the greater tuberosity for fixation. In group II (patellar tendon\u2013bone autografting), fixation was obtained by impaction of the tibial bone plug to the greater tuberosity. Twelve weeks later, animals were sacrificed and specimens were evaluated biomechanically and histologically. Recovery of tensile mechanical properties was achieved to a level of approximately 50% in Group I and 70% in Group II at the end of the 12th week. No difference in the stiffness values was found. In group I, there was a difference between operated and contralateral (non\u2010operated) tendons for the ultimate tensile strength values, but no difference was found in group II. Histologically, in group I, the defective area, which filled with a hypercellular connective tissue, could hardly be differentiated from the normal tendon tissue. In group II, complete incorporation of the bone block was seen in all specimens. These results suggested that patellar tendon\u2013bone autografting is more advantageous than free flexor\u2010tendon autografting in infraspinatus defect, providing rapid healing and better mechanical properties, especially in the early period of healing.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167-003-0473-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,5,25]],"date-time":"2004-05-25T11:59:45Z","timestamp":1085486385000},"page":"235-240","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["The comparison of patellar tendon\u2013bone autografting and free flexor\u2010tendon autografting in infraspinatus defect of the shoulder: biomechanical and histological evaluation in a sheep model"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Muhittin","family":"Sener","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Medical School Karadeniz Technical University 61080 Trabzon Turkey"},{"name":"Ortopedi ve Travmatoloji Abd K.T.U.
