The python-like surgical implant could change that. Pythons grasp their prey using several rows of specialized hook-shaped teeth that curve inward.

The powerful grip of a python’s bite is helping researchers heal a common shoulder injury that afflicts millions of Americans. Medical researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center ...

A device inspired by the unique teeth of a python may enhance rotator cuff surgery outcomes by improving repair strength and reducing the risk of a retear, according to a study recently published in ...
