  1. Two groups of samples have been tested here: samples with a DOB present and without a DOB. They have either been repaired with a tendon or with a graft after being transected in the second step. Values of the change of graft versus cut samples with and without a DOB, with tendon or graft repair, respectively. DOB distal oblique bundle, Fmax,pro maximum force at pronation, Fmax,sup Maximum force at supination, Mmax,pro maximum torque at pronation, Mmax,sup Maximum torque at supination.
