Tendon and ligament (T/L) have been known to be obviously different from each other in tissue level. However, due to the overlapping gene markers, distinction in cellular level has not been clearly verified yet. Recently, the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has shown the...
While "sinew" might be used in a general sense to refer to injuries of strong, fibrous tissues, medical professionals specify injuries as tendonitis, tendinopathy, or ligament sprains, reflecting a more precise understanding of the structure and function of tendons. 8 Despite their differences, ...
Clinical research indicates that tendon and ligament injuries affect over 30 million individuals globally each year, and in the USA alone, more than 250,000 rotator cuff surgeries are performed annually [1, 2]. The primary goals of surgery are to alleviate pain and restore function; however, th...
The difference was significant in the tendinopathy group compared to the acute ruptures (Figure 2D). Fat infiltration was seen in four tendinopathy tendons and in two chronic ruptures and was significantly higher in the tendinopathic tendons compared to the acute ruptures, where no f...
The anterior cruciate ligament is the structure most studied due to its prominent role in knee injuries [87], as well as the known gender difference in the occurrence of knee injuries, with women being significantly more affected than men [13], [14]. By far the largest part of research ...

Background: Numerous studies have compared patellar tendon (PT) and hamstring tendon (HS) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions in the short to midterm, but fewer long-term results have been published. Hypothesis: There will be no difference in functional outcome between ACL reconstruction...
