Biomechanical properties of the injured and normal contralateral tendons after 60 days of tendon injury.

One way ANOVA was performed to statistically analyze the data. Several post hoc Tukey tests were used to statistically analyze the significant differences between groups. Control L: Injured control tendon; Control R: Normal contralateral tendon (NCT) of the control group. Collagen L: Injured treated tendon by collagen implant. Collagen R: NCT of the Collagen group. PDS L: Injured treated tendon by Collagen-polydioxanone implant. PDS R: NCT of the Collagen-PDS group.
