PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical and design characteristics of newer suture anchors under cyclic loading. METHODS Suture anchors were tested in fresh porcine cortical and cancellous bone by cyclic loading (10 to 100 N for 200 cycles) followed by destructive testing parallel to the insertion axis at 12.5 mm per second. End points included ultimate failure loa...
