Key result
The Trans-Osseous Anchor Double Knot (TOAK) technique provides one of the biomechanically strongest methods for rotator cuff repair by combining suture anchors and transosseous fixation.
The article details the Trans-Osseous Anchor Double Knot (TOAK) technique for rotator cuff repair.
May strengthen rotator cuff fixation biomechanically; leaves open clinical efficacy and outcomes.
Numerous peer-reviewed publications have documented the improved functional outcomes in patients with successful, structurally intact repairs of the rotator cuff. This article details one of the biomechanically strongest techniques for rotator cuff repair using a unique combination of suture anchors and transosseous fixation: the Trans-Osseous Anchor Double Knot (TOAK) Technique.
