A comprehensive comparison of PEEK and titanium suture anchors, covering their material properties, biomechanical performance, clinical applications, imaging characteristics, and key considerations for shoulder arthroscopy.
Suture anchors have become an essential component of modern arthroscopic shoulder surgery. They provide secure soft tissue fixation in procedures such as rotator cuff repair, Bankart repair, SLAP repair, and various tendon reconstruction techniques. Among the many anchor materials available today, PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone) and Titanium remain two of the most widely u...
