Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
It has been shown previously that wire cerclage alone does not provide a stabile osteosynthesis following median sternotomy. The hypothesis is that if a stabile osteosynthesis can be achieved patient recovery can be hastened and patient discomfort and pain reduced.
One half of the patients received only wire cerclage the other both bone cement and wire cerclage.
The stability of the sternum was evaluated using radiostereometric analysis, PET-CT and patient reported outcomes in the form of SF-36 and VAS.
