Determining the diet of an extinct species is paramount in any attempt to reconstruct its paleoecology. Because the distribution and mechanical properties of food items may impact postcranial, cranial, mandibular, and...
While internal derangements of the knee often dominate the surgeon’s evaluation, musculotendinous abnormalities about the knee can be important pain generators. Musculotendinous injuries in the knee region have specific implications for treatment and prognosis and can account for unexpected diagnoses that...
The ends of the strand remaining accessible on either side of the bone. The ligament graft is captured within the strand loop protruding from the entrance to the socket. The strand is retracted into the socket, drawing the graft into the socket by pulling on the accessible ends of the ...
Tendon bursae help minimize friction between the tendon and adjacent bony structures (seeImage. Medial View of the Knee). Bursae are small serous vesicles situated where bony protrusions might compress and cause friction on tendons, potentially leading to wear and tear. Examples are the subacromial,...
Tendons play fundamental roles in the execution of human movement and therefore understanding tendon function, health and disease is important for everyday
the middle of the cannon bone region which extends from beneath the structures of the knee to the fetlock joint below. The injury can be performance limiting and can result in the end of the horse's career. The damage may occur from a single incident or may develop over a period of ...
An anchor for tendons used in the reconstruction of a ligament, particularly of the cruciate ligament of the knee, comprising a substantially cylindrical body (2) which can be inserted in a bore formed in the femoral condyle or in the tibia and is provided, at one end, with a flange (3...
Regeneration of the medial collateral ligament of the knee is examined best. Mechanical and ultrastructural properties are not completely normal even 1 year after dissection of the ligament irrespective of whether it was sutured or not. Our own experiments on anterior cruciate ligaments showed that ...
1. Extensor Digitorum Longus: Originates just below the knee on the outer shin bones and forms a tendon before passing across the front of the ankle after which it splits into four foot tendons, one to each of the outer four toes 2. Extensor Digitorum Brevis: Originates from the top ...
The basic science of anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Surgery for ligamentous injuries of the knee continues to be one of the most common procedures performed by orthopaedists. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)... MD Boynton,PD Fadale - 《Orthopaedic Review》 被引量: 23发表: 1993年 PRINCIPL...
