Radiographic assessment with plain films supplemented by ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when the diagnosis is equivocal further aids diagnosis, however, advanced imaging is often unnecessary in patients with functional extensor mechanism deficits. Acute repair is preferred, and ...
The peak incidence was in the sixth decade of life. Assessment consisted of the completion of a functional knee questionnaire and a clinical examination. Symptomatic outcome following surgical repair was good with a mean symptom score generated of 19.16 out of a maximum of 25 using the Rougraff ...
Tendon injuries that occur at the time of bone fracture have long-term ramifications on musculoskeletal health, yet these injuries are often disregarded in clinical treatment and diagnosis for patients with bone fractures as well as in basic science approaches for understanding bone repair processes. D...
Return to Collegiate Hockey After Repair of Chronic Biceps Femoris Tendon Transection at the Knee: A Case Report Case: A 22-year-old man sustained complete transection of his right distal biceps femoris tendon by a hockey skate. He experienced persistent pain and disability, symptoms of peroneal ...
although the tenocytes themselves play no important role in this repair. According to the intrinsic theory, cells from within the tendon proliferate at thewoundsite, leading to production of collagen and extracellular matrix.15,20With regard to the initiation of the healing response, it appears prob...
During a Quadriceps Tendon Repair the following steps are performed: Incision.An incision is made in the knee in the area of the tear. Tunnels.Tiny holes are drilled in the top of the patella. Securing the ligament.Sutures are passed through the torn tendon and then the holes. Sutures are...

Yet, strangely, the process of tendon repair is very poorly documented when compared with the great wealth of literature dealing with bone repair. I propose therefore to summarise the results of some recent investigations on tendon undertaken in the Department of Anatomy in Belfast ( Miller 1962;...
A ruptured patellar tendon needs to be treated operatively to restore the extensor apparatus of the knee [16]. The treatment of tibial tendon insufficiencies is stage-dependent [17]. The main surgical repair techniques aim to re-establish tendon alignment by suturing the ruptured ends together, ...
