Two-stage revisionRevision arthroplastyPatellar tendonSurgical techniques in two-stage revision total knee arthroplasty(rTKA) include the use of articulating spacers and static spacers. Shortening of the patellar tendon could be a reason for inferior functional outcomes in two-stage septic rTKA. The ...
Young et al. (2005)recommended implementation of the 12-week protocol in the off-season if possible because of some of the patellar tendon pain associated with the eccentric-based program. • Bahr et al. (2006)in a level 1 study found no advantage to surgical treatment of jumper’s knee...
A thin layer of quadriceps tendon passes over the patella and joins the patellar ligament distally. The medial and lateral retinacula, which are extensions of the quadriceps muscle, bypass the patella and insert directly on the tibia. If the retinacula are intact after a patellar fracture, the...
Additionally, owing to no direct contact with patellar tendon, little stimulation and no scarring in the early stage after surgery, there was no change in the length of the patellar tendon reasonably[29]. Hence, the PH changes depend on the length of the patellar tendon. This can explain ...
The athlete will be in supine position with an extended knee and shockwaves will be focused on the painful zone in the tendon or insertion. The inferior pole of the patella will be tilted to focus on the dorsal insertion of the patellar tendon as well. The aforementioned treatment protocol ...
amyloid arthropathy and bone fractures3. Osteoarticular complications are common in patients with CKD and cause disability. Further implantation of arthroplasty due to OA such as hip and knee replacements may be needed at the end stage of CKD4. The prevalence of grade III or IV osteoarthritis (...
In this complex and uncommon injury, decision-making should take into account the surgeon's experience and consider one- or two-stage surgery, tendon graft, graft fixation, and rehabilitation protocol. This manuscript discusses the surgical approach based on a comprehensive understanding of the ...

METHODS: We have evaluated patellar tendons according to a routine ultrasound examination protocol for chronic painful patellar tendons/proximal patellar tendinopathy, 3 to 5 years after treatment with sclerosing injections (n=19) or arthroscopic shaving (n=25). Tendon thickness was measured and tendon...
