New suture technique challenges metal screws in shoulder repair

NCT ID NCT07457931

Summary

This study compares two ways to attach a bone graft during surgery for a frequently dislocating shoulder. Surgeons are testing if a strong suture tape works as well as traditional metal screws, with the hope it might cause fewer problems like irritation or breakage. About 80 patients in Spain will be randomly assigned to get one method or the other, and their recovery will be tracked for at least a year.
