Inversion ankle injuries are extremely common, sometimes causing injury to the peroneus brevis tendon. If more than 50% of tendon is injured, it oftentimes requires tenodesis adjacent longus Both Pulvertaft (PT) and side-to-side (SS) techniques have been used for joining 2 tendons. The purpose this study was compare strength stiffness these techniques.Five matched pairs cadaver specimens were randomized receive either an SS or PT Following tenodesis, tested failure load, displacement, energy...
