AB  - OBJECTIVE: To determine the biomechanical properties of 5 suture constructs in 
      the equine cricoid under cyclic loading and load to failure testing. STUDY 
      DESIGN: Ex vivo study. SAMPLES: Seventy-five equine cadaver larynges. METHODS: 
      Each larynx was implanted with 1 of 5 cricoid-suture constructs. The standard 
      laryngoplasty, where a suture is passed once through the cricoid, including its 
      caudal edge, was used in 2 constructs: 1 with 5 USP Ethibond (ES) and 1 with 2 mm 
      Fibertape (FS). In the third construct, the 2 mm Fibertape was passed twice 
      through the cricoid including its caudal edge (Double Loop-DL). Constructs 4 and 
      5 used 2 mm Fibertape in a U-shaped loop passed through the cricoid but excluding 
      its caudal edge. One construct was supported with a metallic button (MB) on the 
      caudo-ventral aspect of the cricoid while the other included only the U-shaped 
      loop (U). Constructs were subjected to cyclic loading and to single cycle to 
      failure. Reduction of the left-to-right arytenoid angle quotient (LRQ), suture 
      migration, and load at failure were compared. RESULTS: LRQ reduction after cyclic 
      loading was lower in MB and U than ES constructs. During cyclic loading, suture 
      migration was reduced in MB, U, and DL compared to ES constructs. Mean load at 
      failure was lower in FS and U than in ES constructs. CONCLUSION: Loss of 
      abduction after equine laryngoplasty may be reduced and pullout forces increased 
      by applying a MB construct in the cricoid cartilage. In vivo testing is required 
      to verify these results.
